In this episode, I’m recording from the Southern Serengeti with one of my dearest mates and long-time safari partner, Firoz from African Mangu Safaris. We’re celebrating a decade of working together, guiding over 25 safaris and building a bond that’s become more like family than friendship.
We chat about:
• How our very first meeting involved a wild twist (what does SOS mean on safari? 👀)
• Starting our own safari companies from scratch
• Heart-stopping animal encounters, from baby elephants and charging gorillas to lions in trees
• The hilarious chaos of getting stuck in the Ngorongoro Crater at night
• The moment we watched a newborn elephant take its very first steps
This is a heartfelt, hilarious and totally honest chat with a man I trust with my life - and someone you’re likely to meet if you join one of my Tanzanian safaris.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
