Most Replayed Moment: Fear Is A Skill You Can Train! Lessons From The World's Greatest Climber
Alex Honnold, the first person to free solo Yosemite's 3,000-foot El Capitan without ropes or safety equipment, joins Steven Bartlett for a replayed excerpt from the full episode. He explains why he still feels fear and how decades of repeatedly confronting it have changed the way he responds to it. He shares how to make seemingly impossible challenges feel manageable and offers a provocative perspective on modern life and what it means to feel free. The conversation frames fear as a trainable skill rather than an obstacle to eliminate.
