[upbeat music] Hi, I'm Molly Bloom, and this is Smash Boom Best, the show where we take two things, smash them together, and ask you to decide which one is best. Today's episode has its ups and downs, literally. One side is all about scaling up, up, up. The other is about zooming down, down, down. It's rock climbing versus sledding. Both are fun, both get your blood pumping, both can be done on a mountain, but only one can be the Smash Boom Best. Here to rally for rock climbing is writer, comedian, and podcaster Tim Barnes.
