Outback Mike Survival and Adventure Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Hamish survived a category 2 cyclone in a 4m boat off the coast of the Northern Territory. The hairy escape from the sea was one thing. The overnight self-rescue mission another. I’m familiar with his story because I was there too!

We unpack the ‘incident’ which scared the crap out of both of us and taught us valuable lessons.

I chat with my life-long friend Andy about career paths that allow epic adventures in work time. Calling from a tent in Antarctica, he's halfway though a five-week expedition searching for meteorites.

Callie has been camping in the North American woods for the last 12 years... straight! Tragedy, the call of the wild and courage to commit to the unknown have shaped her differently. She is also one of the most prominent and much-loved characters on the US Alone TV show, appearing in Season 7 and Alone Frozen.

Oh, and she lives with 11 goats.

You don't want to miss this one!

These tips come from personal experience with my own kids (from babies to teenagers) on adventures such as a week-long unsupported hike through remote Tasmania, a fourteen-day high altitude trek in Nepal, and a four-day ski traverse through the Snowy Mountains in a blizzard.

Learn what works and what doesn't from the technical side to parental regret (OK, I hammed that up).

Lisa sailed solo around Antarctica (twice!). The third person ever to have done it, and the first woman, she broke the world speed record on the second attempt. Narrowly escaping death during a complete dismasting she was impacted by the ship that came to her aid and survived countless rollovers and knock-downs on the planets roughest ocean (even during winter months when it's at its worst!).

She shares her epic struggles and how she managed to survive.

24 year old Tom built a plywood boat in his Brisbane backyard, shipped it to Peru and rowed solo back toward Australia across the Pacific. A totally authentic, epic adventure ensued until.... on the final leg he was capsized by a rogue wave. In gale force winds, naked and freezing, he secured himself with a single rope to the upturned hull and activated his EPIRB. As night fell the enormity of his situation hit him.....

The epic survival story and rescue that followed have featured widely in international media over previous weeks. Hear the full story now, for the first time, on the podcast! It's epic!

The Hayes family lives a very different life. With three YouTube channels in one family they have the freedom to go where their outdoor passions take them.

First I chat to Liz about the pros and con's of such a life and then Clay (winner of Alone season 8). We dive deeper into the ethics of bowhunting in the US and raising kids in such a unique way.

I linked up with Australian adventurer Lucy Barnard in Central America as she hiked past the halfway mark of her 30,000km hike from the southern tip of South America to the northern tip of Alaska.

I've known Lucy for a while now and we unpacked her adventure while hiking for three days up an active volcano in Guatemala while her hiking companion, Wombat (blue heeler cattle dog), was recovering from a foot injury at a local vet.
