SB | Episode 32: Pioneering Exploring Scots

In the week that marked Earth Day and John Muir Day we chose to explore the topic of Scottish explorers. For a small country, Scotland has had more than its share of trail blazers. From John Muir and his contribution to the preservation of wild places to David Livingstone’s remarkable exploration of the continent of Africa, we discuss the brave men – and women – who have contributed to our understanding of the world as we know it today.

As always we finish with our Scots words of the episode.

We post additional content during the week on our social media. Connect with us on instagram and facebook at @scottishblethers and let us know of any requests, comments or suggestions.

Help us spread the (Scots) word and share us with your friends.
