Arctic Ascent with Alex Honnold

This was somewhat better than I was expecting. I felt the first episode started a bit slow, and I was worried the thing would be a bit formulaic and corporate. However by the second episode it's clear that they're facing a challenge of significant scale, and Alex starts becoming Alex.

Without giving anything away, I think the season holds some important lessons about teamwork and risk management. How do you know when you're taking on too much risk? Are you the type of person who would actually notice that when it happens? How do different members of a team respond to it differently?

I enjoyed the Artic setting and the science stuff as well. Learned something new about how to check glacier health, which also made for some cool visuals.
