| 10/7/26 |  JCPC 212 James McHaffie part 2 - Extreme Rocker | In part two of the Caff chat we talk about Extreme Rock, Nesscliffe and putting on raves in the Dinorwic quarries. Tons of crack! | 54m 38s | ||||||
| 9/30/26 |  JCPC 211 James MacHaffie pt1 The Dark Lord of Trad | I had the pleasure of working alongside James "Caff" MacHaffie for a few years and never tired of his dark and boundless energy. One Monday morning I came into the office and, mockinly, asked if he had "Done any 9s this last week?" He had to stop and think about it. That's the level he was climbing at. And not only has he done numerous E9s and E10s, including many first ascents, but his solo climbing will never be matched, he has redpointed 9a (twice), has climbed every route in the book Extreme Rock, has bouldered 8a and put on loads of raves in the quarries. Beat that, Jokob Schubert! Support this week comes from Summit Financial Services.

| 9/11/26 | JCPC 209 Rachel Pearce - Journey to the Indian Face part 1 | North-Wales-based trad machine Rachel Pearce set headlines this summer with her ascent of the Indian Face. Indian Face, the country's first E9, had only had ten ascents in the 40 years since it was first done, practically every ascent making the headlines. This huge slab climb on the sombre cliffs of Cloggy stands for many as the ultimate in the committing end of trad climbing. With her ascent Rachel became to first woman to succeed on a the climb. Yet it is only the latest in a long ticklist of bold and desperate climbs on the mountains and seacliffs in her home turf. Hear about Rachel's background and the climbs that led to this monumental achievement. Much crack. | 1h 31m 04s | ||||||
| 9/2/26 | JCPC 208 Steve Bancroft - Gritstone Renaissance Man | An honour to have climbing legend Steve Bancroft who, along with John Allen, headed up the Gritstone Renaissance of the 1970s.

| 8/13/26 |  JCPC 207 - ClimbFestering | A lame account of how I went to the North Face's DWS event in London the other week and failed to corner anyone for the Jam. Sorry. But at least I survived. | 32m 55s | ||||||

| 10/31/25 |  JCPC 188 Holy Shit | I set off to introduce the Pritchard wainwright podcast but accidentally talk crap for 50 minute. Apologies all round. Big love x | 49m 43s | ||||||
