PBP Episode 42 - Walking the Amazon
This episode features my interview with former British Army Captain Ed Stafford. Ed is in the midst of an expedition of a lifetime - backpacking the entire length of the Amazon River.
Driving himself through constant obstacles and denying fear's hold on him, Ed's spending over 2 years trekking thousands of miles of dense jungles, wading chest-deep swamps, and experiencing interesting encounters with various insects, reptiles, fish, indigenous tribes, and more.
What drives him to do this? What gear does he use? How dangerous is this expedition? Listen in for answers to these and other probing questions.
