This dispatch episode was recorded in front of a live audience for an event with Montane and The Turner Twins. Matt sits down with Hugo and Ross Turner, as well as Montane's Materials Manager, Liam Steinbeck. Together they unpack the twins' bold new expedition, Mallory Reimagined: Climbing Back In Time. In early October 2025, the twins will set off to Nepal to climb Mera Peak, with one wearing a replica of Mallory's 1924 Everest outfit, and the other wearing Montane's modern high altitude kit. In this conversation Matt and the guests dive into themes of exploration, risk, science and history - covering how preparation shapes expeditions, the role of technology in survival, and the mindset of pushing into the unknown. Liam also gives unique insight into the materials development process. From replica boots and wool jumpers to wearable sensors tracking cognition, stress, and thermal data. This is adventure at the crossroads of past and future.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.
