    Farewell For Now: TBF Wednesday Briefing 07.12.22

    Todays episode will the last for the foreseeable future in this format. This is due to taxing time requirements and right now, working as a self-employed person, the hours in the day are tougher to keep track of more than ever! But we will continue to produce content, including the knowledge hub episodes, as well as articles and recommendations each week. So If you want to stick with us, then I would love you to come join us on there! Today we're talking about modern kit and tools, and how advancements in our stuff is inhibiting our ability to understand how it works, or repair it without the need for specialised tools or knowledge. How does understanding how your equipment works enrich your relationship to it?

    Charlie Walker: TBF Episode 63

    Our guest today is Charlie Walker, a British writer, explorer and journalists who has spent the last decade travelling to the four corners of the globe, including a 43,000-mile bicycle journey through Europe, Asia and Africa, across Mongolia by horse and most recently, walking across Siberia. A journey that was cut short by the invasion of Ukraine. We got the chance to talk to Charlie about this most recent event, and his trouble with Russian authorities, as well as discussing the role of explorers in the 21st century, and how our desire to travel to these remote places impacts our ability to protect them. We also discuss journalism, and the influence of the Climate Crisis. Make sure to grab Charlies books on his website https://www.cwexplore.com/store/p5/The_whole_saga.html

    Survival reality shows? Love em or hate em? what do they bring to the outdoor community? These are some of the questions Jeremias and I tackle on this weeks show.

This episode was inspired by this article on Outside https://www.outsideonline.com/culture/books-media/small-game-blair-braverman-excerpt/ Our friends at Journeyman Handcrafts just launched a new website which you should check out here! https://journeymanhandcraft.com/
