SARCAST - Talking Search and Rescue.

Neville Watson Martin McMullan

Sarcast, Talking Search and Rescue Podcast, informs and reflects on the outdoor life through the lens of the search and rescue volunteer. We are part of a hill going community. We are walkers, runners, climbers, mountaineers. We are mountain rescuers. We are people with day jobs and families, dogs cats and car loans. We are the sarcast crew.

    Sarcast 5. The Big Red Button

    Recent years have seen an increase in extreme weather events, wild fires, and incidents that can involve multiple people. We explore the rise of these phenomenon, consider whether it's the 'new normal' and look at how SAR services have adapted in response.

    Sarcast 3. Surely Someone Else Can Do It?

    We look at the concept of Mountain Rescue in the UK and Ireland - an entirely voluntary service - and consider where it came from, how it works, why it works and get all philosophical on the power of the volunteer strength of community.

    Sarcast 2. Pushing the Limits

    We chew the fat on hard won experience. You can't get good without getting out there and you can't get out there without an element of risk. We wander the grey area where risk meets reward and explore the tension between personal fulfilment and personal responsibility. Listen in as we share personal and professional reflections on finding that balance, after all, in the mountains, balance can be a useful thing.
