What a fantastic story. I am currently reading The Wide, Wide Sea and the author is a great storyteller. Will is an amazing interviewer and this podcast kept me engaged the entire tire time. I am now going to start from #1 and looking forward to every episode
Will does a fantastic job carrying on incredible conversations, as carefully guided questions lead to some really amazing stories! I've enjoyed the variety of guests and really having so many takeaways at the end of each episode. Will and the podcast have so many similarities to Anthony Bourdain, which I love! I value a podcast that continues to generate so much conversation beyond the epsiode. Well done!!
Love this podcast with interesting guests who share fascinating adventure tales mixed with thoughtful reflections. Host Will McGough asks some great questions and is an interesting man himself!
