For those of you who might be wondering where the creative juices of Outdoors with Skinny! currently stand, it is all about planning. However, there is a well-thought-out structure in place for it, comprising various segments that will feature longer versions, 15 to 20 minutes, which are separate from the main show and will delve deeper into each subject. Each full episode will be around 60 minutes long, covering an array of topics that highlight the unique features of Southern Indiana counties, from locally owned eateries, charming shops, to other intriguing businesses that contribute to the local flavor. Additionally, we'll explore beautiful parks, winding trails, inviting campsites, and other breathtaking scenic locations that each region has to offer. The show will also include discussions on hiking, camping, biking, and canyaking equipment, alongside upgrades to gear and essential maintenance tips to keep everything in tip-top shape. Cole will share his expertise on home and camp food, offering fantastic ideas for cooking, preparation, and packing—all to make your next outing a culinary success. To add a touch of surprise to the mix, there will be various other segments sprinkled in for your enjoyment. All of this will be presented in a seemingly random manner, meaning, quite literally, that a dice roll will determine where Skinny will be venturing and what activities will be featured in each show!
