  • Great rambling tramping tale

    Just like with any good tramping adventure, the path is not straight or clear, but very very human. No lectures or moralising, just a good yarn as he walks with some important questions covered. Love it 💚

  • Fantastic

    I’ve only just discovered this podcast, quite by chance, it’s amazing. As a kiwi living in Oz, it’s making me so homesick, especially tramping through so many places familiar to me. I’d highly recommend listening to Bruce, what an awesome guy!
