Ep. 2 - Canadian Bouldering, American Speed, and an IFSC Plenary Preview

Canadian national team manager Malek Taleb gives a recap of Canadian Open Bouldering Nationals, American speed champion John Brosler updates us on the state of speed climbing in the USA, and IFSC Executive Board member Maria Izquierdo gives us a sneak peek into the goings on at this weekend's IFSC Plenary Assembly in Quebec City (spoiler alert: she tells you how you can qualify for the Olympics, probably!)

Filler music by Mirth Naarc.
