We go beyond the standard interview to decode the "why" and "how" behind the world's greatest adventures.

  • Big Cats, Himalayas & Conservation With Johnny Hanson
    2026/01/27

    Start Here: http://adventurediaries.com/go

    In this highlights episode of the Adventure Diaries Podcast, we revisit the most powerful moments from our conversation with wildlife conservationist and author Jonny Hanson.

    Full Episode Here

    From terrifying encounters with snow leopards and working with dangerous animals in "Tiger King-style" facilities to climbing 20,000-foot peaks in the Himalayas without a guide, Jonny shares incredible stories of survival and exploration. But the true heart of this episode lies in his philosophy of coexistence—bridging the gap between wild carnivores and livestock farming—and his profound "Call to Adventure" that looks inward rather than outward.

    In this episode, you’ll discover:

    • Big Cat Encounters: The chilling story of a snow leopard attack that killed 100 livestock in one night.
    • A Life of Adventure: How Jonny’s path led him from smuggling Bibles through the Iron Curtain to working with jaguars, tigers, and rhinos.
    • Himalayan Expeditions: The humbling experience of researching in Nepal and a near-death experience on a 20,000-foot peak.
    • Conflict & Coexistence: The tension between loving wildlife and protecting livelihood, illustrated by "The Fox and the Gander."
    • Mental Wellbeing: Why the "mountains of the mind" are the hardest peaks to conquer.
