Real Risk

13

Richard Harris SC OAM, 2019 Joint Australian of the Year talks about risk with real, live, risk takers. How can one person BASE jump from a bridge when another gets dizzy at the top of the stairs? Why might you fear going into an elevator when I love to explore flooded caves? Real Risk gets into the weeds with the people we all think are crazy, to find that mostly, they aren’t at all. They just have a different view of the world around them, often driven by curiosity or a need to test themselves. I guarantee you’ll be inspired to push yourself a little harder.

    Amazing interviewing
    Just discovered this podcast, and already binged four episodes. Harris reminds me of the Richard Fidler of the adventure world in how well prepared, engaged and genuinely curious he is with each guest. He asks interesting questions that draw new things out of people— and has a real knack for sharing snippets of his own story with humour and a sense of empathy but without ever letting it dominate the conversation.
