This is Our Time

Season 1 is a virtual journey to Antarctica.

For Season 2, Samantha Hodder joins the all-women’s leadership expedition to Antarctica, as Podcaster in Residence.

The trip plan was to get all the way to the Rothera Research Station, part of the British Antarctic Survey, a place that’s so remote, it’s almost an illusion.

But they had problem...they almost got stuck in the ice.

To solve this problem, the women aboard this ship were asked to take a blind vote to determine what to do.

They took charge of this dangerous decision....but what happened next?

Join this emotional odyssey to the end of the world.

Serialized content, please listen in order.
