Open Air Humans

About Open Air Humans

Open Air Humans is a bi-weekly podcast in which outdoor luminaries share incredible stories about how they've found a happier, healthier more human life outside. For millennia, humans spent 90% of their lives outside. Today, they spend 90% inside. It’s no wonder so many feel out of balance and disconnected from their essential nature. Recent scientific studies prove what many have long suspected: that more time outside makes the modern human happier, healthier and more fulfilled. In the Open Air Humans podcast, Emmy award winning host Jesse Roesler uncovers the stories that led outdoor luminaires to spend a substantial amount of their time in wild places and the ultimate impact it’s had on their lives. Along the way, guests share actionable advice, rituals, insights, favorite gear and destinations that can help us all live a better life outside.
