Piss-poor planning and preparation or the greatest polar journey ever made?

Journey with us to the far southern latitudes as we attempt the first human crossing of the Antarctic with Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew, who displayed remarkable courage and resilience when things went wrong. Rattle engages in some unashamed hero-worship while Darth questions the sanity of all those involved during our discussion of the heroic age of polar exploration. Warning: contains a frank admission of not understanding just how cold the Antarctic is.
