Episode Notes Colin and Avinash kick off this new season with the story of the guy who founded North Face. That legendary man's name is Douglas Tompkins. In this episode, we dive into the story behind the founder of a brand that we're all familiar with and the group called the FUN HOGS. We also play a new game with some interesting consequences. Tune in and enjoy this amazing story.
