Joe and Mark connect to talk about the history of Resolute, Canada and Mark's own past there as an explorer. Mark talks about why a place that used to be a historic hive of exploration activity is largely silent right now.

Joe asks Mark if he wants to be alone in the arctic, and the team outlines the 1,600km route Mark will set out on in just two days.
