The Journal Series - Episode 60 22.08.2026

The final installment of the entire 60 episode series. Eleven months in the making, it has been an enjoyable endeavour to share with you these thoughts and adventures. Today's walk covers Alexandra Palace to Moorgate, even though I only make it to Primrose hill in the recording. I am now taking a little break for the Autumn 🍁 season but there will be more shows from the Dread house and Enfield gh...

The Journal Series - Episode 59 14.08.2026

After a little break, I'm back with the penultimate episode in the series. Since I haven't walked or hiked in a week, I thought I'd get and take advantage of a slightly cooler evening. Recorded on a OnePlus Nord CE 3 lite with a DJI mini mic. Walking through Hillyfields, Whitewebbs and Forty hall. #thejournalseries #hikenpod

The Outpost Episode 05.08.2026

This episode was recorded on a night walk at Aldenham country park. This was the first adventure for the forthcoming end to end run in 2027. I couldn't for some reason upload to publish this show, it did go out live though. #endtoend #thejournalseries #hikenpod #bikenpod #campnpod #thelastbroadcast #samhainpirate #theoutpost

The Journal Series - Episode 58 02.08.2026

More of a bikenpod, recorded on my bike riding back from Cheshunt, as it gets dark. As it's past sunset, I rode through Forty hall in the dark, very spooky and fun. Recorded on a OnePlus Nord CE 3 lite with a DJI mini mic #hikenpod #thejournalseries #bikenpod

Greetings from the end of the kingdom series 7 episode 8 26.07.2026

I missed a day due to a long drive and tiredness. I thought this would be the final episode of the series but I changed my mind half way through and thought that a final episode back in Enfield would suit a better form of reflection. This is the penultimate episode and a longer one than the previous to be fair. This is the only episode recorded in the morning to make up for the lack from the night...

Greetings from the end of the kingdom series 7 episode 7 24.07.2026

Greetings from the end of the kingdom series 7 episode 5 22.07.2026

Today was a long day that cost a lot of money. Still totally worth it though, I have really enjoyed this holiday so far, I know we are not at the end just the middle. This is also the first full day at Land's end. I didn't think I had the energy to talk, but I found it somewhere and stood on the roof and recorded it.

Greetings from the end of the kingdom series 7 episode 4 21.07.2026

The Journal Series - Episode 54 20.06.2026

A cheeky episode I recorded earlier in the week but didn't publish until just before the deadline. I had just finished recording 'the Outpost' and felt inspired to share with you.

The Outpost - Late night edge of the world - Episode 1 02.06.2026

A live internet radio broadcast I'm taking a chance here with this new series, broadcasting live on the radio and then publishing straight to the hikenpod channel. No safety net, no edits and cuts, just as it appeared on the live broadcast. This episode I walk through a familiar Hillyfields and Strayfield farm to start the series off. It was published and available online before I reached my front...
