The Wild Dispatch
A podcast exploring human stories from wild places around the world.
This part-Brit part-South-African from America interviews guests with both deep knowledge, and entertaining stories in their back pocket.
From old traditions to modern technologies. From hunting to fishing, foraging, homesteading, tracking, tanning, even animal communication... we celebrate the wild skills and adventurous spirit that's helped us thrive.

EP38: Save your own skin w/ Dennis McKiver - stories from a Pararescue Specialist
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.
