Jesse St. Louis has always been enamored with the chaos of moving water. Yet, an obsessive pursuit of his acting career kept him blind to the natural world around him for many years. A fateful experience atop a waterfall in L.A. would inspire him to reevaluate his identity—ultimately leading him on a path to exploration and adventure travel. Jason and Jesse spoke one day near that fateful waterfall about his “infamous” YouTube channel, two years traversing New Zealand by van, the appeal of natural waterslides, the joys of coasteering and canyoneering, and his emotional connection to Wilson Phillips and the San Gabriel Mountains.

Jessica Leila grew up with parents who wanted her to have every opportunity they had not. Her childhood was filled with love, world travel, and every extracurricular activity imaginable. Despite this, she still struggled with anxiety and an underlying anger. Joining a caving grotto in adulthood would introduce her to a new set of challenging outdoor pursuits, strong friendships, and a serenity she had never found before. Jason and Jess spoke one night about her eventful childhood, growing up Muslim in the US, her amazing parents, her bout with Rhabdo, her experiences outdoors, and 11 diverse fun facts about her unique life experiences.
