In this episode we talk to Erling Kagge who is an explorer, author, publisher, art collector, and the first person to have completed the Three Poles Challenge on foot—the North Pole, the South Pole, and the summit of Mount Everest. He has written eight books on exploration, philosophy, and art collecting. They have been published in 42 different languages. His next book is 'The North Pole - The History of an Obsession', which out later this year.

In this episode we talk about:

  • Searching for infinity in the North Pole
  • The hardship of exploration
  • And how inconvenience is good for you
  • Wearing the same clothes for 50 days
  • Confronting Polar Bears
  • Pooping at minus 50
  • How a single raisin can make your day
  • Living underground in sewers
  • And whether silence can be measured

We recommend listening to this episode while walking!
