Update on the tragedies on Shishapangma and in Israel. The tragedy in Israel has affected the Israeli climbers Aviad Sido and Nadav Ben Yehuda. Today's episode is an opinion piece. Based on what has been happening over the last few years. it seems that those who are looking for records are putting themselves and others at risk because they are prioritizing records over safety. I give 2 examples, including last week's deaths on Shish of the American women Gina Rzucidlo and Anna Gutu.
