Antarctica Revisited: Trek To The South Pole #ChallengeAccepted

“When Robert first went to the South Pole, back in 1985, believe it or not there were actually more people that had been to the moon than had actually been to the South Pole!”

Gez Draycott, Vice President of Sales Engineering at SES returns to the Satellite Stories podcast with a follow up of the latest twists and turns working with explorer Robert Swan. 

He announces that SES will be sponsoring him to head back to Antarctica for Robert’s next expedition - but this time they’ll be pushing the boundary further physically and technically than any of SES’s other ESG feats to date: #ChallengeAccepted

Listen back to our earlier episodes, when we supported Robert and the 2041 ClimateForce expedition in March 2022:

The Podcast Coach: Helping ordinary people share extraordinary stories.

Aged 10, I dreamt of having my own production company called A Small Furry Bear. I presented radio shows on a ghetto blaster in my bedroom with my little brother. Now, some 20+ years later, as a podcast coach and presenter - that day dream has become an everyday reality.

Question is, how can we make your dreams of presenting a podcast come true as well?
