Bob’s back from the Field Museum, KJ has strong opinions about water parks, and special guest Jada Freer joins fresh off running the Badwater Cape Fear 50K to give us the full debrief — hectic travel, dolphin sightings, golf cart navigation failures, and a trail section that was genuinely not built for tall people.

Also: Creeper Socks get their moment, bib boards get a serious policy discussion, the Saunter Triple Crown is born, Jada’s safety pin sock system is revealed and immediately causes chaos, Cocodona is moving to a lottery, and KJ is outfitting a Starlink backpack for Badwater 135 crewing duties.

If you DNF’d a race and need someone to process it for you, check out ChatDNF.com. Bob built it. It might sting a little.

Bob & Kevin had almost no planned topics and somehow still got sidetracked, a lot. Kevin blindsides Bob with a complex question about iconic ultras. Please excuse my hoarse voice.
