#18: Climbing is a great way to connect with nature, or even just let off steam with friends. But the sport has a reputation of being somewhat exclusive. Today, HTLA newsletter writer Aaricka Washington is back in the studio with Brian De Los Santos. They're talking about Brown Girls Climb, a group that aims to increase representation of women of color in climbing communities. Aaricka learns to climb with them at one of their monthly meet ups in L.A. 

Guests: Aaricka Washington, HTLA newsletter writer; Jaya Kang, Indira Orozco, & Shalaka Gole, local chapter leaders for Brown Girls Climb
