Episode 9 – "Lost Without Signal: The Great Map Debate!" - Roaming Free Podcast
Description
In this fun and light-hearted episode of Roaming Free, Steve Fleming and Ian Henderson dive into the world of navigation – old school vs new tech. From the trusty compass and paper maps that never run out of battery, to the convenience (and occasional chaos) of digital tools like the OS Maps app, they explore the pros and cons of both worlds.
The duo champion the underrated life skill of being able to read a map – from understanding contours and grid references to spotting features you’d miss on a screen. They chat about how this essential skill builds confidence, boosts situational awareness, and keeps you safe when the tech fails.
There’s friendly banter, a few tales of getting hilariously lost, and a cheeky comparison of Harvey Maps versus Ordnance Survey. Whether you're a digital die-hard or a map-and-compass purist, this episode will help you find your way.
