About this listen

Paul Watkins set out alone into the Arctic wilderness.

No food. No shelter. No backup plan.

What started as an adventure became a near-death fight to survive.

Eight days. Frostbite. Starvation. Isolation.

Hallucinations so vivid he couldn’t tell what was real.

He saw trucks and workers that weren’t there.

He heard fighter jets that never came.

He believed a woman was following him the polar explorer “third man effect.”

👇 Here’s what’s inside:

  • How a simple plan spiralled into an 8-day survival nightmare
  • The terrifying hallucinations that almost pushed him over the edge
  • The mental games of isolation and how he nearly gave up
  • The brutal signs of hypothermia and frostbite he ignored
  • The moment he thought he wouldn’t make it back alive

This one will leave you shaking your head at what the human body — and mind — can endure.

🔥 Full poddy out now everywhere

LFG, it’ll change the way you see survival forever 🤌
