Oldish: Oldish on Everest, Redux

This is a newly re-edited version of one of our first episodes from almost three years ago. It has been one of our most popular episodes, and we've given it a fresh new sound.  Co-hosts Dr. Janet Price and Gregg Kaloust sat down with dear friend Chris Balch to talk about our trek to Mt. Everest Base Camp with Everest to End Duchenne to raise awareness and funds for research to find a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. We are stll hoping for a cure. We hope you enjoy our conversation.

Gregg Kaloust is writing a memoir of that trek and others he made with Chris, Everest to End Duchenne, and other friends. He is posting excerpts along with other writings on his substack at https://greggkaloust.substack.com/publish/home

You can learn more about Duchenne and efforts to find a cure at https://everesttoendduchenne.org. There's a link there to the documentary of that first trek.
