The story of Shackleton’s Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition is full of adventure, bad luck, good fortune, close calls, bold action, despair, pure joy, and just about everything in between. Why is it that Shackleton, his crew, and Endurance still fascinate so many people 107 years after the ship sank? Let’s ask historian and host of History Hit, Dan Snow! Dan will join Tim to talk about Shackleton, storytelling, and the lessons we can learn from the past. Plus, Dan and Tim will do a live pemmican tasting, sampling the staple food of explorers past. What is pemmican? Join us to find out!
