  • So interesting!

    I’ve enjoyed listening to Scott’s adventures over the last few weeks. I may not be able to drag my entire family across the world with me, but I feel like I’m right along with him in his Mongol Rally journey. I’m glad he’s provided links to his website so I can see pictures of the places he’s gone through and some of the experiences he’s had.

  • Wow! Had no idea…

    I had not heard of the Mongol Rally ever before but heard about this podcast and started at the beginning. I am loving the episodes and I’m on seven so far. I greatly enjoyed the tremendous effort Scott went through on the front end explaining and capturing all the issues he experienced from attempting to get visas, getting their credit card to work in multiple countries, trying different foods, learning first aid, getting a brief course on mechanics, finding the right car that’s ubiquitous enou... more

  • I’m hooked!!!

    This podcast is addictive. I started from the beginning and the story about the trip to Mongolia is amazing. I’m a serious traveller and used to a lot of these traveling challenges (visa, food, etc) and this podcast still keeps me interested. It is fun, informative and inspiring. Now I want to drive to Mongolia. Well done. We have too many adventure youtube channels and not enough podcasts.
