The Kindness of Strangers Driving Through Africa

The Kindness of Strangers Driving Through Africa

Air Date: January 8, 2025

We’re rewinding over 50 years to a time when “off the grid” actually meant off the grid. Meet Barry, a fearless traveler who, alongside his wife, drove solo across Africa before GPS, social media, or even paved roads in most regions.

This episode isn’t just about adventure—it’s an honest look at what it meant to explore uncharted territory. Barry shares how they navigated political unrest, unguarded borders, and language barriers with nothing but grit, curiosity, and non-verbal communication. You’ll hear what pushed them to ignore the doubters, trust their instincts, and discover the power of humanity when words fail.
