The Wild Dispatch
From world-record breaking expeditions to traditional hide tanning techniques: The Wild Dispatch explores the many different ways we connect with nature.
Full of honest conversations—and occasional audio adventures—This part-Brit part-South-African from America chats with guests about fishing, foraging, tracking, homesteading, ancient hunting, ultralight camping and everything in between.
It’s a podcast for nature lovers… it's an all out owl-hooting celebration of the skills and traditions that got us where we are today.

EP38: Save Your Own Skin ↣ Stories From Dennis McKiver, A Pararescue Specialist¹
Dennis McKiver is back! This time with more tales of close-calls and near-misses.
Along with the usual smorgasbord of stories, we have underlying theme of Self-Rescue tips too... It's perhaps obvious but pushing a rescue button might not always be the best or quickest way to get yourself out of trouble. Some training, skills and smart thinking could help save your skin.
given the medical nature of this episode it seems wise to also note that this is the opinion of one highly trained life-saving ex-military life-saving human... and listeners should always take time to get officially educated on best emergency practices for each situation.
