F@@king Cool Swims

Step into the wild with the first episode of F**ing Cool Swims, a podcast that explores extraordinary swims in extraordinary places. Host Dave Wallace takes us to Finland’s Oulanka River, where he joins Robson Lindberg, announcer of the legendary Downhill Swim. What begins as a journey through pristine waters becomes a lesson in resilience, wonder, and the Finnish philosophy of LIVING WITH NATURE rather than on it. With currents that carry you like three strokes in one, the warmth of the midnight sun, and the quiet camaraderie of swimmers from around the world, this is more than just a swim. It is a reminder of why wild places matter and why they must be protected for those who follow.
