Getting kicked out of High School didn't do George any harm. Years later it gave him the resilience to survive a near death experience in Papua New Guinea and the courage of character to give endurance ski racing and triathlon a go. Stints as an instructor in both skiing and martial arts coincided with developing the traits of courage and tenacity that enabled him to play rugby, where alongside blossoming friendships and a distinguished career in journalism he developed a deep appreciation fo...

Episode 6. Craig (Crunchie) Donaldson
Craig Donaldson taught me how to cut down my first tree at the age of around ten, and so to a degree he (among other characters) was spoken of already in episode 1 and 2 of the Lumberjack Lore podcast as I introduced what I want the podcast to be. During my lifetime I have watched Craig achieve some incredible feats of endurance as an ultra cyclist but also as a first class rugby player, lumberjack and within his career as an Engineer. Frank and honest, in this episode...

Cam the Auctioneer
Cam travels to the edges of civilization and onto some of the most remote Farms that roost in the hinterland bordering the wild forests, mountains and the Coast of New Zealand. He loves the rural lifestyle and its people, and in this episode of Lumberjack Lore, as its first guest, he really gets to the heart of what I want the Lumberjack Lore Podcast to be.

With the second episode of the Lumberjack Lore Podcast I talk a lot about nomenclature as it relates to "sharpening the Saw". This is...

The meaning of "Lore"...
Logging is one of the Worlds most dangerous occupation's and so don't be fooled by the hosts monotone pre-amble in this, the first episode of the Lumberjack Lore Podcast. Like life, this (the Podcast) is a journey of discovery and the delivery is deliberate, matter of fact, laconic and authentic to host Wez Parkes due to him having faced mortality on a daily basis during his twenty year career as a Lumberjack. It's the guests that quite rightly should bring it to life! Under this type o...
