Think Thailand and you usually think two things. The first is the vibrancy and hedonism of the capital city of Bangkok. The second is The Beach - the book-turned-film featuring Leonardo DiCaprio that sent scores of backpackers to a tiny island off the coast of Phuket. I pay the Land of Smiles a visit (in association with the Tourism Authority of Thailand) to uncover a different side to the world's busiest city and the country beyond. From visiting the Green Lung of the capital where monks ask for recycling rather than alms, to journeying by sleeper train to Chiang Mai to check out sustainability projects already underway, and interviewing a ranger about the initiatives that have been introduced to tackle overtourism on the beach from The Beach - wander with me to discover a side to the country that is distinctly green. Also coming up:Learn how to prevent and treat sea sickness on all your water-based adventures; Dip into the 10 Best Travel Books to fuel your wanderlust; meet itinerant TV presenter, author and farmer Kate Humble to talk Interrailing, Africa and... magic string; Understand how to buy the best sun cream for your travels - whether in warm or cold climates; join us for a chat with Urban Explorer Greg Abandoned as he reveals some of the most fascinating places in the world; and prepare for a polar expedition with our Wander Woman of the Month - Arnalulunguak.www.Phoebe-Smith.com; @PhoebeRSmith

When I then decided to join the United States Marine Corps, two doctors told me that boot camp would kill me, thanks to a blood disorder I was born with. But I wasn't about to let that stop me. Not only did I complete boot camp (with a twisted ankle, no less), but I was chosen as the honor graduate in Infantry school and went on to spend 7 months in Iraq where my job was to walk in front of our vehicle convoys to find explosives before they could destroy our vehicles.That was just the beginning of my understanding of the positive power of fear and struggle. In 2012, I left a comfortable corporate job to drag a 190-pound sled 350-miles across the world's second largest polar ice cap for a month. I've swam through underwater caves, almost been killed by a falling boulder while glacier caving, experienced severe altitude sickness while climbing in the Himalayas, and suffered through heat exhaustion while running across countries. But my greatest struggle came many years after the war. I was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and consequently struggled with depression and alcohol addiction that drove me to the brink of suicide. I then spent years studying neuroscience, psychology and spirituality to not only heal my own brain, but figure out what does it take to live a happy, succesful and meaningful life.That is when I rejected the label of PTSD assigned to me and created a new one – Fearvana. I define Fearvana as the bliss that results from engaging our fears to pursue our own worthy struggle. I then wrote a book about the concept called “Fearvana: The Revolutionary Science of How to Turn Fear Into Health, Wealth and Happiness.”Flex Diet Podcast SponsorThis podcast is brought to you by the Physiologic Flexibility Certification course.

An interview with Ally Wilkes, author of ALL THE WHITE SPACES, released 25 Jan '22 (UK) and 22 March '22 (USA). This episode includes an author-read extract from the novel, and we discussed Polar exploration in the early 20thC, the Great War (WWI), Polar horror, and a morsel of survival cannibalism.
Is it cold where you are? If so, do I have the book for you.Our guest is Ally Wilkes, whose debut novel, All the White Spaces was my pick for the most anticipated horror novel of early 2022. I was NOT disappointed.The book takes us to Antarctica in 1919, just months after the end of the First World War, in the dying years of the Heroic Age of Exploration. There, trapped in the frozen ‘overwinter' the team of men are forced to confront a malignant presence that draws them out into the cold.Did that give you a shiver? The good kind? Yes!Ally's book is the springboard for a great conversation about exploration and hauntings. We debate over what the thing in the darkness is. Is it a ghost, a god, an evil sense of anti-human geography?But beyond that we also get into all kinds of meaty, chewy topics, such as how her novel unpicks and deconstructs the long-celebrated ideas of masculinity, heroism, nationhood and empire. Yet, despite all that, the Daily Mail still gave it a good review. It's THAT good a book. Enjoy!!All the White Spaces is released in the UK on January 25th by Titan Books, and on Mach 22nd by Atria in North America.

Who was the first explorer to reach the North Pole? How about the South? It turns out that at least one of those answers is complicated, and although the controversy may never be laid to rest, plenty of would-be arctic conquerors were themselves laid to rest during the golden age of polar exploration.

Dale "Stevo" Stevenson, National Throws Coach, New Zealand Athletics. To me, this is one of the most intriguing podcasts I've posted… You don't have to be a throws coach to get something out of this. I've met few coaches who are able to systematically individualize and create a training system around an athlete's individual performance structure / force-output profile. This is even more impressive given the fact that Dale walked into a national coaching position shortly after retiring as an athlete. I hope you enjoy this, I certainly did. There will be more to come. Topics: · Dale's history as a competitive shot putter. · His current role as Head Coach for the Throwing Events, New Zealand Athletics. · Christchurch, Polar Exploration & the Galapagos. · Differences between Aussie & Kiwi Athletics. · Dale's current group. · Ryan Ballantyne & coaching top juniors. · How Dale came to coaching Tom Walsh. · Tom's early athlete development. · Super-Coach Ian Baird · Tom Walsh's unique challenges as an athlete · Dale Stevo's unique training system & approach to periodization · Throwing the competition implement in competition cycles · Dale's 4 session rolling average & auto-regulated periodization model · Differences b/t Dale's system & the Bondarchuk system. · Medium-term planning in Dale's system. · Tom's competitive ability vs. training marks · ‘Freedom' as a training philosophy. · Technical input vs. allowing an athlete to develop their own solutions to technical problems. · Using a ‘system' vs. being an outlier & individualizing training · Does coaching attract an addictive personality? · Managing your life as a professional coach. · The pros & cons with balls to the wall coaching. · Being isolated in NZ.

In this episode I’m joined by author and historian Dr Shane McCorristine, to talk about his 2018 book The Spectral Arctic: A History of Dreams and Ghosts in Polar Exploration. In the book Shane's research ventures beyond the familiar concepts of Arctic exploration in the 19th Century and reveals a wealth of strange stories and supernatural phenomena encountered by people travelling to the frozen north, as they partook in missions to find the near mythical Northwest Passage. Embodying that endeavour was the legendary Franklin expedition, whose disappearance in 1848 prompted rescue missions across the globe as well as the use of clairvoyants to try and locate the lost ships, HMS Terror and HMS Erebus. The fate of the crews of those vessels also inspired a host of macabre tales, both among the native peoples of the Arctic as well as back home in Britain, and these too play their part in understanding what Victorian society really considered the frozen north to be like.

Resilience is a learned behavior, friends. Yes, some people are BORN with it - but most people learn it. It's defined in the dictionary as the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness OR the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape; elasticity.So I ask you this, Brave Listener, how resilient are you? How quickly do you recover when things go wrong? Do you have the ability to spring back into shape? Well, this week's episode is all about learning to be resilient. And it's a story of hope!Author, coach, and Arctic expedition guide (um, how cool is that!?), Heather Thorkelson joins us to talk about growing up wealthy but severely neglected. Neglect is not just for the underprivileged. This is a story about learned resilience and finding the strength you need from within.
