  • The free solo climber who turned grief into climbing fuel to honour a promise: Brette Harrington S3:E11

    The free solo climber who turned grief into climbing fuel to honour a promise: Brette Harrington S3:E11
    Jun 26 2025
    Climbing phenomenon Brette Harrington has spent her life chasing adventure on bold lines in remote places – but few climbs demanded more courage, resilience and emotional strength than her historic free solo of Chiaro di Luna in Patagonia. What began as a shared dream with her partner Marc-André Leclerc would ultimately become a powerful tribute to him, after his tragic passing. In this episode, I talk with Brette about the mental preparation it took to free solo one of the most difficult routes of her life – and what it meant to return to Patagonia and finish a line she and Marc-André had planned together. We explore the physical challenges she’s overcome, including a serious neck injury and concussion, and the emotional journey of keeping a promise to someone who’s no longer here. From childhood obsessions with rock walls to pioneering new routes in the harshest alpine terrain, Brette’s story is one of passion, pain and climbing as a way through grief.

  • The swimmer who battled through piranha waters for 66 days to conquer the Amazon River: Martin Strel S3:E10

    The swimmer who battled through piranha waters for 66 days to conquer the Amazon River: Martin Strel S3:E10
    Jun 12 2025
    At 52 years old, endurance swimming legend Martin Strel set out on one of the greatest adventure feats in human history – to swim the entire length of the Amazon River. Battling exhaustion, treacherous currents, parasites, piranhas and mental collapse, Martin’s 66-day journey pushed the limits of physical and psychological resilience. But this was never just about a personal challenge – it was a mission to raise awareness about the destruction of one of Earth’s most vital ecosystems, all while sporting a yellow pillowcase on his head. In this episode, I speak with Martin about what drove him to attempt this near-impossible swim, how he has stayed alive in some of the world’s most dangerous waters, and why he believes endurance swimming can be a force for change. From his unconventional beginnings in Slovenia to the heart of the Amazon rainforest, Martin’s story is one of grit, survival and deep connection with nature – proving that sometimes, the most powerful strokes are taken for something far greater than yourself.

  • The ultrarunner who took on mountain kingdoms, fear and an entire nation: Ryan Sandes S3:E9

    The ultrarunner who took on mountain kingdoms, fear and an entire nation: Ryan Sandes S3:E9
    May 29 2025
    Ultrarunning athlete Ryan Sandes has pushed the limits of endurance, survival and adventure in some of the most extreme environments on the planet – from brutal mountain crossings and moments of fear on the Great Himalaya Trail to relentless storms and a terrifying night deep in the mountains of Lesotho. Ryan’s relationship with running wasn’t always easy, and his story is one of mental resilience, raw determination and an unshakable will to keep going – no matter what – all while finding the joy in what you do. In this episode, I talk to Ryan about how he transformed from a young South African kid with rugby ambitions to one of the world’s most respected ultra-endurance runners – a journey that kicked off from a friendly dare with his mates. He opens up about the physical and mental challenges he’s faced along the way, and how rediscovering his passion for trail running led him into the heart of the Himalayas and out to explore African mountain kingdoms. We talk about fear, isolation, the importance of partnership in extreme conditions, and why sometimes survival means trusting your instincts and just putting one foot in front of the other.
