Remote resupply: Macquarie Island
Show Notes

Macquarie Island is a remote speck in the wild Southern Ocean. Since 1948, it's been home to an Australian research station. Every year, there's one visit from a ship to resupply the station for the next twelve months. Go behind-the-scenes for the 2019 resupply, and hear the stories of those who travel there, those who stay, and why they keep coming back.
