S1E5: When Adventures Go Wrong - Making the Most of Failed Adventures
In this episode of the Attempt Adventure podcast, hosts James Barrett and Michael Desrosiers talk about how to make the most of an adventure when things go wrong and what you can learn from failure. Each host shares some of their own failed adventures from tiny elevators and weirdly empty towns to forest fires, airport Tupperware wine, and snatched passports.
