A soon-to-be college grad, raised in Appalachia, calls in to talk about his next adventure—moving to Antarctica. But as he and Gethard dig deeper, it’s clear this journey is about more than just travel. Life’s thrown a lot at this caller, but he’s put in the work, and come out the other side. Now, with med school on the horizon, he’s taking a detour to the edge of the world. It’s a heartfelt conversation with a caller you’ll be rooting for.
