Join 100 words mate to mate founding member Craig Turton (Turts) each Tuesday at 8pm for ‘mate to mate at 8‘ and a weekly special guest.

This week, Turts chats to Michael Keating Kearney, Carpenter at Casey Station, Antarctica

In November 2019, Michael Keating Kearney - an Irishman - boarded a plane (after a few false starts) and threw himself headlong into the next 12 months of his life living, and working as a Carpenter at Casey Station in Antarctica.

Mike at Turts chat about life in Antarctica, the rigorous process of being selected as one of the team based at Casey Station, how he came to be the resident brew master. They’ll also talk about how the team work on managing mental health and the isolation - especially heading into winter.

Tuesday 26 May
