Long trail thru hiker and aspiring Calendar Year Triple Crowner, Jack "Quadzilla" Jones sits down for a serious chat with Doc. As Jack hovers on the cusp of his upcoming departure on the 7,500-mile CYTC, he and Doc delve into some serious conversation. During the episode, we learn about the tragedy and upheaval of his childhood, his bouts with depression and video game addiction, his Army experience, and his Hail Mary to hike the AT and pull himself out of the depths. You're not going to want to miss his discussions on ultraheavy hiking, how to properly hot shot, and the significance of post-trail depression.
