About the episode

“Antarctica has this mythic weight. It resides in the collective unconscious of so many people, and it makes this huge impact, just like outer space. It's like going to the moon.” Jon Krakauer  The race to the South Pole was always going to throw up some Heroes, maybe a few Howlers too - but who should really get the credit for discovering the Seventh Continent? Paul and Mikey wrap up warm to take a look. Get in touch, follow Heroes & Howlers and find them everywhere HERE Produced by DM PodcastsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
