272: Run For Your Life. Part 2 The Rock Drive

    • Comedy

Today on what would normally be a Sniper Elite podcast, the lads chat to father and son Nick and Michael Stride.  Nick is the author of 'Run For Your Life'.

Run For Your Life is the remarkable true story of a family forced into hiding after leaking Russian secrets. The book is the first time that Nicholas Stride and his children Anya and Michael share their harrowing story of being on the run in the remote Dampier Peninsula of Australia, after receiving death threats from Russian henchmen. For several years the family battled snakes, crocodiles, tornadoes, fires, hunger and thirst to survive. Today, Nick and Michael join us on the podcast to discuss their story and answer all our burning questions after reading the book.
