The Last Frontier Podcast
Your two hosts of this podcast work as professional guides in the Alaskan outdoor tourism industry and started this podcast as a fun way to keep busy during the pandemic summer of 2020. With uncertainty in what employment might look like, Danny and Andrew still wanted to share the beauty of Alaska with people and this podcast was a good way to achieve that goal. Alaska is an incredible place everybody should put on their destination bucket list. Each episode opens with a beer review highlighting a local Alaskan brewery and then tackles a different topic relating to what makes Alaska such a unique place in the world. With all the fun being had drinking Alaskan brews and sharing fascinating information about the Last Frontier State, what started as a fun short term project has morphed into a long term endeavor. With this decision, investments were made in much better production equipment and the sound quality drastically improves starting in Phase II of the podcast with Episode 17 (Feb 21, 2021 release date). We hope you enjoy the content and strongly encourage you to visit Alaska in the future!

Alaska Mascots Part 2: The NBA
Last year to help celebrate Thanksgiving football, friend of the pod Jared Fink joined the program and we changed all the NFL mascots to make them Alaskan themed. Well, the people have spoken. After receiving millions upon millions of letters in the mail begging for us to do another mascot episode, the bald eagles have listened. NBA season recently kicked off and Jared is back as we delve into all the NBA mascots and transform them into their Last Frontier counterparts. What type of net is shaped like a basket? What Alaskan pant made the list? And who is going to name Danny's baby?! It's the episode that'll have you chanting, "Let's go folk!"
