Trail Tales is a hiking podcast made by Kyle O'Grady. The podcast focuses on thru-hiking, with interviews and discussions centering around the topic.
Formation
Kyle began the podcast shortly after hiking the Appalachian Trail in 2018 as a way to keep his life centered around hiking.
Subject Matter
While the show mostly focuses on thru-hikers, there are other subjects covered such as peak bagging, content creation, FKTs, red-lining, and other adjacent subjects.
Hiatus
In March of 2022 after not uploading an episode for over six months, Trail Tales posted an episode explaining that the interest was no longer there, and that the show may continue in some form in the future. The show was brought back in December of 2022, about a year and a half since any content had been posted on the podcast, after Kyle returned from his attempted thru-hike of the Pacific Crest Trail.
Affiliated Media
Kyle's main focus has been his Youtube channel called "Kyle Hates Hiking" where he posted PCT vlogs and other content surrounding hiking.
