It’s Pretty Good
Welcome to The Outside Show
Hot takes, the latest happenings, rad guests, fresh gear—it’s all part of The Outside Show. Hang with hosts Mo Beck and Zoë Rom in the Outside gear garage live Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Outside TV, or stream episodes on-demand.
MEET THE HOSTS
MO BECK
Champion climber Maureen (“Mo”) Beck was born without her left hand but that didn’t stop her from picking up the sport of climbing at the age of 12. Mo has won nine national climbing titles and two world titles. Her 2018 attempt of Canada’s Lotus Flower Tower with fellow adaptive climber Jim Ewing earned Mo a National Geographic Adventurer of the Year. Retired from competition, Mo spends her time climbing all over the American southwest.
NOAH COLLINS
Colorado native Noah Collins is an exceptional cyclist, but not getting paid enough to cover the cost of his favorite coffee beans. So he earned degrees in biochemistry and exercise physiology, and now he trains elite cyclists while being way smarter than them. Too curious to be contained by lycra, Collins is also a successful business owner and a passionate outdoorsman who you’re as likely to find in the woods as on the road.
ZOË ROM
Zoë Rom is the Editor in Chief of Trail Runner and Managing Editor of Women’s Running. An elite ultrarunner with international podium finishes in distances from 50-100 miles, she likes to run very far not very fast. Heralded as "technically a comedian" by her accountant, she performs stand-up and improv in the Roaring Fork Valley. When she's not running, she's skiing. When she's not skiing, she's sleeping or eating. She likes expensive coffee and cheap whiskey.

Conor Hall, leading the charge for Colorado’s Outdoor Recreation Industry, underscores the vital economic contribution of the outdoors to the state, “(the outdoor industry) amounts to over $62 billion and provides employment for more than 500,000 individuals, constituting 18% of Colorado’s workforce. The necessity of amplifying the industry’s voice, in the Outside Festival and now THE SUMMIT serves as a platform to unite and empower both industry players and the community they serve.” Early-bird tickets to THE SUMMIT that include all meals and a two-day GA pass to the Outside Festival start at $495 for a limited time.
