About this listen

For centuries, many explorers tempted fate to embark on a mission to find the fabled Northwest Passage connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans north above Canada and Alaska. We have eye witness testimony that the passage exists as Andrew has returned in one piece to tell his tale. Join us on a journey on today's episode as we highlight the historic significance of the Northwest Passage and delve into Andrew's recent journey far above the Arctic Circle. Who was the first explorer to successfully navigate the Northwest Passage? How many years did that expedition take versus how long does it take today? And how the heck do you pronounce the name Roald Amundsen?! It's the episode you'll listen to while drinking a pumpkin spiced latte!
