THE POX and PUSS PODCAST : An Appalachian Trail Thru-Hiker Experience

Pox & Puss Presents: In The Pines - Wrong Turn (2021) - Movie Commentary Watchalong Jul 29, 2024

Back in 2022, Pox Holiday made a fateful promise on the first episode of In The Pines Podcast: He would watch "Wrong Turn," the 2021 horror reboot about a group of Appalachian Trail hikers facing off against a terrifying mountain clan, but only if we'd record it all.

Well, we followed through on that terrible idea and it landed with a meaty thud.

Join us as we dive headfirst into the backwoods terror of "Wrong Turn."

We'll dissect the stupid plot, cringe at the gore, figure out who Mathrew Modean is, and debate whether this reboot lived up to the original or should even exist at all.

Expect plenty of laughs, WTF moments, actual screams, and our questionable life choices as we endure this cinematic ordeal together.

What the critics are saying...

5.6/10 - IMDb

65% - Rotten Tomatoes

46% - Metacritic

Watch Wrong Turn on...

Pox & Puss Presents: BONUS - Eric Rudolph and the Appalachian Trail Bandit Oct 04, 2022

We are only a few days away from celebrating the Pox & Puss Podcast's 10th anniversary. So, in honor of that day, we bring you b-b-b-b-bonus content from In The Pines, where Pox talks about his 1998 thru-hike and the cast of fugitives and bandits he met along the way.

During the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, GA, Eric Rudolph detonated a 100lbs pipe bomb in Centennial Park. One person was killed and 111 were injured. Three more bombs went off in the weeks and months following the Olympic bombing. What took place after that was an all-out manhunt along the Appalachian Trail and in the Nantahala Gorge. The FBI was looking for Rudolph as far away as the Appalachian Trail in Virginia. Pox Holiday was thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail in 1998, around the same time Eric Rudolph disappeared into the mountains for almost 7 years. Pox was even questioned by a member of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park because he looked like a fugitive. In this episode, you will hear untold stories about the search for a domestic terrorist and his accomplices that never made it into a newspaper article or a television report. _____________________________________________________________

In The Pines - 09 - Benjamin Peter Ashley and the Pacific Crest Trail Aug 02, 2022

On August 16th, 2016, a man covered with desert dirt, who looked as if he’d been hiking for days, walked into a rural California convenience store and bought $100 worth of junk food and water. Located near the Pacific Crest Trail, the convenience store owner was no stranger to dirty hikers. However, this man happened to match the description of a suspected murderer wanted by the police. In less than an hour, the man would be shot dead as he was walking back to the Pacific Crest Trail. This is the crazy story of how Benjamin Peter Ashley terrorized the remote canyon communities of Central California and used the Pacific Crest Trail to elude authorities for weeks.

In The Pines - Lake Lanier Mar 07, 2022

Lake Sidney Lanier is an artificial lake that was created in the 1950s by building Buford Dam on the Chattahoochee River in northern Georgia. The 38,000-acre lake lies on top of the ruins of towns and farmland of over 700 families. Today, the lake has over 11 million visitors every year, about the same number of annual visitors as the Louvre. Lake Lanier is also one of the deadliest lakes in the USA. 500 people have drowned and many of their bodies have never been recovered. What is killing so many people in this lake? Underwater debris? Crazy currents? Could it be the ghosts of the Cherokee Nation who were driven out during the Trail of Tears? Maybe it's a curse caused by the people of Oscarville, whose once-thriving town is now at the bottom of a 200' deep lake.

In The Pines - Dennis Martin - Premier Episode Jan 31, 2022

Welcome to Pox Holiday's newest podcast: In The Pines. We're giving you the premiere episode in the Pox & Puss feed, but you will be able to find future episodes in the "In The Pines" Podcast feed here: https://anchor.fm/inthepinespod "In The Pines" will be a monthly podcast focusing on the mysteries, crimes, and the unexplained that could only happen in the American Wilderness. Pox's co-host is Nikki from "The Appalachian Crime Trail" podcast. Our first episode discusses the 1969 mysterious disappearance of Dennis Martin. Follow us

71 - I Do This Now Apr 07, 2021

What can we say? It's been a hell of a year, right? Ugh. We pick right up where we left off, two yahoos just dicking around on microphones, talking about the Appalachian Trail. - There are people who will drift in and out of your thru-hike. - Following the Siren Song of slack packing. - We didn't horde things through the pandemic, YOU DID! - Dial makes coconut water soap? You're damn right they do. - Sometimes you have to sit in a bus and do new things. - Hey Coke Zero and Walmart, are you listening?

Pox & Puss Presents: Korean Baseball with Brad and Pox Aug 10, 2020

Back in May, with very few sports on TV, Pox Holiday started recording and watching late-night Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) games on ESPN. After watching a few KBO games, Pox knew he had to contact the only friend he has who has been to a few of these games: past Pox & Puss Podcast guest, Brad!

Trust us, once you've watched a KBO game or two, you'll probably have a lot of questions. Questions like, "Why are there so many cheerleaders and DJ's?" or "Is that a 7' tall dinosaur named 'Swole Daddy'?" or "Does everyone there have these dances memorized?" or "Didn't that guy used to play in the United States?"

Brad takes time out of his morning to teach us about KBO customs, traditions, and beer delivered on backpacks. Yes folks, it's just a one-off episode about Korean Baseball with two guys who know very little about baseball, and even less about the KBO, but one guy lives in South Korea. This was recorded back in late May 2020, so some information, statistics, our opinions, etc. have changed.

O.P.P. 10 - The Quarantine Edition Apr 06, 2020

Hey. How are you doing these days? Did you hear that the Appalachian Trail is kinda closed? We figured if the AT is closed, we'll talk about other stuff right now. Plus we heard that Quarantine Podcasts are so hot right now, so we thought we'd jump on the bandwagon.

We know this is a short episode, but we have at least one more coming out later this week.

Stay safe and wash your damn hands!

70 - Eavesdropping with Dan Koeppel Sep 23, 2019

In this episode we talk with Dan Koeppel about his article "The Legend of Baltimore Jack" in Outside Magazine. Dan was searching for an article to write for Outside when it was suggested that he look into a hiker who had recently passed away named Baltimore Jack. But little did Dan know that Baltimore Jack was Adam Tarlin, a student who had written for the school newspaper with Dan while they were both attending Hampshire College. In our discussion, Dan talks about the various avenues he took to learn more about what made Adam Tarlin become Baltimore Jack. Koeppel interviewed Jack's friends, family members, and even Warren Doyle.Don't worry though, it isn't all serious...there is the usual Pox & Puss bullshittery. Be sure to check out Dan's book about the Banana, our original episodes with Baltimore Jack, #ChickenMath, and are Double Stuff Oreos too much?

69 - Trail Days 2016 with Asiago and the 2013 Parade Jun 13, 2018

Here it is…the final chapter in our 2016 Trail Days Interviews series.

This time we have a quick discussion with Asiago about just how difficult it can be to get to Erie, PA. We talk about how disappointing “short cuts” are sometimes.

Unfortunately, it was a short interview.

So we dug deep into the Pox & Puss hard drives and wound up coming back with something even OLDER than these 2016 interviews. This segment was originally buried because the experience was too fresh and depressing.

At the end of this episode we finally share our recounting of the 2013 Thru-Hiker Parade Tragedy.

A big thank you to our sponsor for these past six episodes, HealthIQ.

66 - Trail Days 2016 Samsquatch Mar 13, 2018

This is a warts-and-all episode. People have been asking us just to release the 2016 Trail Days interviews as-is…so here’s part one of six (or maybe seven?)

Every year we set up in front of MoJoe’s Trailside Café we seem to interview at least one non-American. 2016 was no exception: Samsquatch is from the U.K.

His girlfriend, Jade, didn’t want to talk. So she did what any good thru-hiker would do…she went to get some food.

As a reminder, this was the year that Puss was violently ill and suddenly got sick inside of her car on the way to Trail Days. Through a friend, Puss met Samsquatch and his “Trail Family” the night before, so we were expecting him to come talk with us. Discussed:

Another easy Visa story.

Tennis, Football and Rugby queue-ing

PEcan vs. PeCAN

Samsquatch has to be the first person to ever call Gatlinburg “the greatest place ever”.

Huge American portions!

Red Velvet Belches

Sweet Tea and Grits

Someone gets locked inside a Dollar General bathroom.

A story about Too Loud makes an appearance.

And these nerds play Dungeons & Dragons on the Appalachian Trail.

65 - 110 Miles of Fun Jan 09, 2018

After the first 110 miles of a northbound Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike, you should be jumping for joy that you've finally reached Franklin, NC. So why does Pox Holiday believe that he doesn't encounter that many "happy" hikers in this amazing Trail Town? Puss and Pox talk about the mental and physical aspects that play into your first couple of weeks on trail, and how to have fun in one of your first true Trail Towns. Don't worry, of course there is the usual nonsense that goes along with a Pox & Puss podcast!

Here we talk about Karl Metzger's record breaking Appalachian Trail FKT, ponies, a man named Duct Tape, and we work in something about the National Park System.

Please forgive all incorrect information....there's a lot of it.

61 - Shane Mauss Breaks Both of His Heels Oct 25, 2016

In 2014 Shane Mauss, a stand-up comedian, went for a hike in in Sedona, AZ...at the end of that hike, Shane had two broken heels. Shane has told this story on other podcasts, but we were the first to talk with him since he revisited the site of his "accident".

Shane dubs this the “correction episode” after his recent appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Shane admits that he might’ve accidentally embellished a bit about one part of the story he told on JRE. Shane is towards the beginning of a 75 (possibly 80) City Comedy Tour called “A Good Trip”, a "an hour and a half show that is part stand-up, part funny stories of experiences, and part Ted Talk". His tour is sponsored by the MAPS organization.

51 - Trail Days 2015 Jun 13, 2015

Welcome to our third annual Trail Days show!

If you’ve heard our past Trail Days episodes, you know this is not our typical show. Every year we set up our 10x10 tent in front of MoJoe’s Trail Side Café so we can meet and interview thru-hikers. For some reason this year the crowds on the North side of town were a little bit thin. Usually you can hear people all around us, talking, shouting, playing some weird instrument. We’re always able to grab a few people from the crowd so we can talk with them. This year…not so much. Luckily we had two people lined up to talk with us; our Australian friend “Superfeet” and long-time P&P listener “Too Loud”. Here are a few things we talk about in this episode: Venomous vs. Poisonous

Paul Hogan throws a shrimp on the barbie

Jermaine from Outback

A Trail Angel named Courtesy stops by to say hello

Another Episode where Pox’s Heart Grew Three Sizes!

Australians Love Lamb

Bears in the Smokies decimate some section hiker backpacks

Bay Pride!

“Too Loud” runs into a turkey.

Puss tells us about her “5 Hour Energy” routine.

Obviously I have barbecue and food on my mind in this episode….sorry.

You’ll hear us talk with people off mic as they come up to say hello or buy a t-shirt.

Please visit AppTrials, sign up for the Thru-Hiker register, and when you’ve completed the trail, send Zach Good Badger Davis your summit photo so we can share it with the world.

Leave a 5-Star Review on iTunes & Stitcher.

49 - Wild: Starring Johnny Cash's Wife Mar 24, 2015

We’re finally going to talk about “Wild”. We waited to hear back from Reese and “her people” to see if she was going to do an interview with us. She’s not. This this is your warning: SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read/watched Wild, you might want to skip this episode until you do. Please understand that there’s a good chance we’re getting facts wrong about Wild, so we’re probably not really “spoiling” anything. Also, please understand that we will be talking about “SENSITIVE SUBJECT MATTER” and as it relates to Wild. You probably know what we’re talking about.

We also take phone calls, read out some iTunes reviews, and Laurie Potteiger gets a shout out. So sit back, relax, and get ready to enjoy some “Non-Linear Banter…vaguely related to the Appalachian Trail”.

48 - Flow Easy and Stuff Mar 02, 2015

Since Flow Easy stuck around Natty Greene’s after mooching free beer from the @NCBeerGuys episode, we asked him to sit down and record with us. Flow tells us about his most pleasant privy experience.

Pox and Flow went on a roadtrip after Trail Days in 2001.

Puss tells us about the privy habits of Fruit Bats. #CubePoop

Pox reads a page or two from his 1998 Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike journal.

Pox realizes that reading from his journal was a bad idea.

We've all gotta cross them sometime in our life, but knowing when and HOW to cross them can be difficult.If you're tuning in to our podcast hoping you can find some advice....you're in the wrong place, pal.

Gordon was also raising money for two separate charities as he hiked, one in the US and one in the UK
