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.

EP57: The Evacuee ↣ Escaping WWII With Ray & Violet Warman²
This week it is Violet Warman's 97th Birthday. She was born in 1928 — Rather a lot of wild stuff happened since that day...
In this episode Robin was lucky enough to hear some of Vi and Ray's memories from the past: The moment WW2 was declared, being evacuated, watching dog fights in the skies above... and trading bike rides to American soldiers for enormous amounts of pocket money.
In this episode takes a leap from the urban world of East London, and escape to the English countryside.
Happy Birthday Violet! And thank you both for sharing your time and stories today.
