Restless Viking Radio
Restless Viking Radio is a travel and storytelling podcast about motion, meaning, and the misadventures that make both worthwhile. Join Chuck and Poppins as they chase storms, ferries, and forgotten stories from the Great Lakes to the Arctic, Iceland to Central America. Some tales are funny. Some are not. But every one has a heartbeat. These aren’t travel tips — they’re reminders that life isn’t found on a schedule. It’s discovered somewhere between the coffee and the chaos.

The James Bay Road isn’t just long — it’s alone.
In this episode, Chuck begins a northern run toward James Bay, driving thirteen hundred miles into a landscape shaped by hydro dams, silence, and history that runs deeper than the road itself.

In Episode 2, I face one of travel’s great equalizers: doing laundry in a foreign country.
What starts as a simple chore turns into a comedy of confusion, humility, and one very opinionated pair of socks.
If you’ve ever stood in front of a foreign washing machine praying for a miracle, this story will feel uncomfortably familiar.

In Season 1, Episode 1 of Restless Viking Radio, I walk into an REI looking for a pair of boots… and walk out with a lesson I didn’t know I needed.
What starts as a simple shopping trip turns into a conversation about adventure, purpose, and the strange way a good pair of boots can reveal who we really are.
This is a story about drifting, rediscovery, and the moment I realized I’m not just making videos — I’m a storyteller.

Most of our adventures start too early, too far, and with a plan that collapses faster than a cheap tent on the Labrador coast.
This is Restless Viking Radio — stories from the road, the workshop, and the edges of maps.
Some are funny. Some are not. But every one has a heartbeat.
