Another climbing season for those attempting to summit Mount Everest has come to a close. This year, the Nepalese government offered fewer climbing permits in an effort to reduce congestion on the mountain and improve safety, after a record-breaking 18 climbers lost their lives in 2023. Still, this year saw five climbers die on the climb, with three others still missing. So what is it really like to climb the tallest mountain on Earth, and should the Nepalese government be putting more safety measures in place? In this episode, The Briefing's Simon Beaton speaks with Dan Stretch from Global Rescue, who coordinates high-altitude rescues on Mount Everest. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In todays episode we are going to go over the importance of shooting sticks. A huge mistake we western hunters make is not practicing or knowing how to shoot off shooting sticks effectively and accurately. In Africa on 99.9% of hunts you will more then likely be taking most of your shots off shooting sticks, built in the three legged tripod setup. Learning how to use shooting sticks, and getting comfortable with your hunting rifle off sticks will substantially put you in a better place for success when you get in the African bush. Get Some stick and hit the range with them regularly. I have owned and practiced on a set of shooting sticks from African Sporting Creations since 2009. They are great and easy to use, you could even take them to Africa with you, if youd prefer. https://www.africansportingcreations.com I hope you enjoyed todays video and it helps you get ready for your first or next Safari.

And, honestly, one of the best parts of my job.” – Dan RichardsReferring to one of their rescuees: “He used to call me on the anniversary of his rescue to thank me and just remind me that what I'm doing is important and I need to keep doing it.” – Dan RichardsOn gratitude: “Of course, people appreciate when they are appreciated, but when you share that gratitude with others, you yourself get so much from that.” – Syd Finkelstein“Basically, during a crisis you need to understand what is happening to you or to your organization so providing that situational awareness is incredibly important.” – Dan Richards“While the world has shrunk, or feels like it has shrunk for many of us, it is still a remarkably large, diverse, and sometimes difficult place.” – Dan Richards On receiving government help as an individual: “Sometimes, people make the assumption … that if something really bad happens they're (the government) going to try to do something … but they're not set up for that.” – Syd Finkelstein“It's the worst part of our job, when we have to communicate to a family member that their loved one is not going to make it.” – Dan RichardsOn travelling: “The places that, previously, we might have considered safe or benign from a risk or security standpoint are no longer that way.” – Dan RichardsStay Connected: Syd FinkelsteinWebsite: http://thesydcast.comLinkedIn: Sydney FinkelsteinTwitter: @sydfinkelsteinFacebook: The SydcastInstagram: The Sydcast Global RescueWebsite: Global RescueFacebook: Global RescueTwitter: @GlobalRescueInstagram: @global_rescueSubscribe to our podcast + download each episode on Stitcher, iTunes, and Spotify.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
This is a kind of crossover episode that keeps many of the "usual" parts of the Mighty Blue show but incorporates and transitions us over to the Camino show. Deanna McGregor hiked the Camino in 2017 as a truly spiritual experience and returned this year with her sons, 12-year-old Daniel and 16-year-old Jonathan. We speak twice with Deanna; once prior to her setting out, when she tells us about her evolution as a hiker and her experiences on the Camino last year. Once she had returned from this year's trip we caught up with her again as she reflected upon how the journey with her two boys had transpired. Needless to say, there were significant differences. You can follow this year's hike with Deanna on her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/LupeShoes Also on the show, we have Dan Richards, CEO of Global Rescue. I'd originally intended to interview somebody about insurance available to hikers, as I'm aware that this is a regular topic of discussion for some people. Dan turned out to easily cover that base, even though he isn't an insurance guy. What Global Rescue do turned out to be far more interesting than just boring old insurance.

Travis sold his 2001 E350 Sportsmobile before leaving Chile and flew back to Michigan to start his next conversion, a 2008 Duramax 4x4 ambulance. He then converted his ambulance in 90 days for his Alaska trip; included a DRZ 400 dirt bike on the back to enjoy his adventures, knowing he’d finish-up any remaining details along the way. Travis plans to enjoy plenty of kiteboarding, rock climbing, stand up paddle boarding, and spear fishing along the way.There’s a lot to learn from this episode as Travis walks us through his philosophy of preparing and departing for an overland trip. He also provides plenty of tips for the digital nomad working on the road, along with a plethora of added details when building out an overland rig. What details and modifications make a big difference, and why perfecting each detail can hijack your overlanding adventures longer than necessary.
