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!

Hot, cold, rest, repeat. That is the order of operations when you visit a Nordic style spa. Hydrotherapy is not a new concept in today’s world and Alaska is now home to its very first Nordic spa. One of your hosts recently took a visit to this spa for his wife’s birthday and as a result, the inspiration for this episode was born. Join us as we delve into the human history of spas highlighting the benefits of visiting a Nordic style set up. When did spas originate in America? What is the benefit of cold water immersion? And who wants to sponsor our next visit to the spa?! It’s the episode you should listen to in the sauna!
