What a lovely guy Ben Fogle is! A true and fine example of a human being, who is not afraid to let his emotions show in his gentle and so genuine way. Ben is a wonderful example to us all!

I’ve always loved Ben Fogle as he exudes such natural, genuine warmth. He has a special gift with people. Also what he says about our education system is so true as there is far too much emphasis on academia and university when an apprenticeship could be more valuable. Also his thoughts on happiness are well acknowledged as being close to nature is the best therapy especially for sensitive people.

I hope he knows what a wonderful gift he has when he interacts with the people on his programmes . All the people he visits visibly love him. He is so genuine and likeable.

He is as real as one can get. He does not bullshit himself and others which is far more than most famous and not so famous people do. Down to earth and not delusional like most. A very normal personal who is not afraid of telling his truth. Great interview. Thank you.

Appreciate Ben for his honesty and showing vulnerability. He always came across as a very down to earth bloke

The bit that hit me really hard with this was the part where they talked about the education system. I am smart, every one of my teachers recognised how smart I was, however, the conventional system has never worked for me. I can do the works practically, not in theory. Exams, I don’t perform well in them at all, I’ve come out of every exam with much lower grades than my teachers thought I would, even after spending countless hours revising. All of my teachers were always saying oh, you could go on to study at Oxford or Cambridge. The difference being I’ve never wanted that. I don’t enjoy, or see myself progressing in full time education, doing theory work on paper all the time. So now, after a year out of education, I am about to start a new apprenticeship with a £1billion+ company. I can’t wait for this opportunity, I truly believe it will bring me out of my shell. It’s so heartwarming to know that such big role models like Ben and yourself Steven, actually also believe in a lesser known, less conventional way of progressing your life and career.

What a beautiful human Ben Fogle is, so very open and authentic, This chat was full of golden nuggets, own your own narrative or perceived narrative. And not being scared of dying because you have no regrets, that is it exactly, Living on your own terms and doing what brings you peace. Thank you so much for making this video.

Your podcasts are amazing.. But this one was honestly something else. Not just how Ben was so honest with us and himself about how hes reflected on his life and how it affected him, but the way you both conversated with each other about such important topics that need to spoken more about. The things that all humans are struggling with in this new time of life. Thank you for this

I was listening on the way to work and I have my driving test on Thursday, as I was walking to work I saw a number of learner drivers and started thinking about my test, doubting my ability etc; Then the piece about Ben saying he kept failing his driving test because he believed he was going to fail came up. It honestly felt like some outer body experience of the universe telling me to stop worrying. So thank you for this, I really needed it 👍🏼

Successful people don’t become that way overnight. What people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

A really inspirational chat, somewhat comforting that even people who appear to be at the top of their game have struggled, and still struggle with things such as fear of failure and lack of confidence.

Wasn't he just amazing? Putting his flaws and mistakes out and sharing the learnings. I loved it!! 💕

I don't know how you open the honesty tin of each of you guests/friends but you have a knack of picking people that just want to help and inform others around them with the knowledge, successes and of course un-successful parts of their lives that are not the picture perfect portrayals always presented. F.A.B gents

I found this interview very interesting. I am that person who, until my mid 40's, lived his life one day at a time, with no worries of my tomorrow, just chasing the next adventure, basically the ultimate definition of freedom. I was truly free. At one point I woke up to the reality that with age, it wold not be possible or uncomfortable, to continue to live this life style. It took me another 10 years to turn my life around and settle into the reality and start up my own business with the aim of becoming financially independent. It's hard, it's tough, it's horrible and sometimes I hate myself however, what drives me forward, is the end game i.e. to go back to the ultimate, low key life of basic freedom.

Ben Fogle is the man I love the most who I never have got the chance to meet. I pray that I get that privilege to one day get the chance to shake his hand and thank him for what he has done for me. I am far from perfect, I would even say I consider myself a failure when I look at my life. Sure I got a home but not one I take care of. I have a job that pays well but not one I love. One thing I have though is my travels and it was Ben who gave me the courage to try it even though I did it alone. I'm 27 years old and I'm scared to see how age is getting the better of me, few are the days when I get home at dawn with a smile on my face. But I still dream of finding a path that makes me enjoy this amazing gift of life we have. Anyhow, thanks Ben for everything you have done and keep doing. You inspire so many even tho you might miss it sometimes. Bless you! (If I might dare to ask anyone for a helping hand, I would love to hear of ways to move away form sweden and try new thing. Dont need much more then a belly full of food and a place to rest)

Love Ben Fogle and have watched his series new lives in the wild since the beginning. He comes across as such a genuine and gentle soul and I agree with a lot of what he said in this podcast about unplugging from the matrix and getting back to who we really are. Great job Steven 👌

How I love this guy and he’s such a bit of me! He’s the number one person I would love to have at my dinner table. Success isn’t always about money, it’s about trying to be your authentic self amidst everything life throws at you when you’re very sensitive. Life can be very simple if you allow it to be, and that’s what I love about his programmes.

I think Ben is so real and extremely brave .

I think this has been my favourite episode so far. Absolutely loved it.

What a brilliant idea of Ben's, for 18 year olds to do volunteering in public services. And the point that university shouldn't be presented as society's overall expectation for young people. Thanks Steve (and Ben) for a great episode.

It's an excellent episode, as ever dive deep into some emotive topics which are so thought-provoking. Thank you Ben and Steven for this

I think this is my favourite interview so far. What an incredibly level headed humble guy. I learnt quite a bit from him today. I can resonate with so much here.

I'm only 8m and 38sec into the video and I already feel incredibly seen and understood by this guest. I' gonna take all the advice he shared and try to live my life in a better way just like he did. Thank you ❤️

I just love Ben Fogle. And I love so many of his documentaries. He is so good with people. Great interview. Great interviewer.

Just love Ben Fogle such a lovely guy Love all he does. Great watching you talking to him ////

This is the best episode to me. I’ve been catching up with of them and I must say the guests bring something different out of you Steven, sometimes quite ugly, hedonistic and materialistic and sometimes so honest, beautiful, vulnerable and pure. This one had a guest that I agree with 100% on all levels.

Mr Fogle was an amazing guest, I love the way he looks at society & what actual happiness is.

One the best interviews I have ever seen! Just a shame it doesn't have more views. This content could be so helpful to so many people. We are basically all dealing with the same insecurities no matter how successful we appear to be. And we all experience those random 'dark cloud' days (I call them 'meh' days) which I also put down to insufficient sunshine, nature, exercise. Thankyou both for your sincerity and honesty. 🥰💞

I think this is my favourite episode yet ! Such an insightful, genuine and open conversation, thank you both

I’ve always admired and liked Ben Fogle. His sensitivity and gentleness.

To build self confidence/belief a good way to help others is to build and track habits for their goals/potential. Ex. For the gym put your shoes on and get into the car (but don’t go) is a habit to track as the first steps towards working out. Goal: be better than the day or week before. Track over a year or two to prove your integrity to your own word; this builds self confidence. Do a habit around learning, physical/mental health, relationships, and financial. Over 1-2 years you will have changed your identity and will continue to grow

Thought for years this man is a knob - how wrong I was and all down to an accent - makes me feel like a fool now because Ben is the best book narrator in the world, he has achieved more than I dare to think about including Everest - Ben, you sir, are my modern day bally hero my good man - I'd love to spend a day with you and pick your brains - and yes I am close to 63 and still dream of achieving 'stuff' (by the way HUEL is amazing)

Steven I absolutely loved this podcast. So many things I could relate to and Ben provided such a beautiful articulation of life’s lessons and stories.

This guy is one of the best personalities on TV. His way with people is not learnt, it's intuitive, it's just his personality. He is honest, open-minded and not influenced by society or current trends. This shows with every episode about those people that left the civilisation. He is inspired by them, and is looking for off grid place for himself. I bet he has some unique experiences to share and is great to talk to. Great work Ben. I hope you find your place.

I really enjoyed discovering some answers to questions I have had for a long time. I find myself sitting around your glowing firepit of lucid conversation, wanting to join in. Thank you for such a relaxing reassuring moment in time. What a treasure! Kind regards Keith.

What a beautiful soul, Ben is. Made me tearful, when he mentioned their little boy, he and his wife lost. Very interesting and thought provoking interview. Fabulous!

Wow really this guy inspired me , I had the Same thing of being underestimated by others , and after u prove them wrong they tell u the opposite of what they used to say , and as I always say it meant nothing to me when u underestimated me and it means nothing to me when u do the opposite . Thank you ❤

I sold up everything 12 years ago, Lexus, house, job, the lot, at age 56. I travelled the world on my motorbike and backpacking and it changed my life for the better. All my clutter and "stuff" was gone, the less clutter and stuff I had the freer and happier I became. I now have friends all over the world, mainly bikers and the free thinking none woke, adventurous none Sheeple. I am "richer" than I ever have been, not in the £££s sense, but in peace of mind, free and content.👌

I gotta say I really like how this channel gets to the core of the interviewee and discuss who they actually are, including things that are normally considered too embarrassing to even humble brag about. I swear all these other 'entrepreneurship motivational' channels all put out the same kind of content that you can predict before you even watch their videos

Woa it is another amazing episode. I love it so much and enjoy listening it. There are a lot of opinions that you can not agreed more and need to be noticed!!! When I was a child, I was compared to other people, was underestimated by all people surrounding me families, relatives, friends...with labels of shy, introvert to failure. This negative labels have gone with me in many years and now I have been struggling with them.

Listened to this on Spotify on a car trip this week. Loved it. Love Ben Fogle. Love the thought provoking topics you do on this channel

Always Ben a fan of his shows and had great respect for him. But watching him in this interview has topped it all . That fact that he was not afraid to show his vulnerable side is amazing. I enjoyed every single bit of this podcast. I usually find it hard to watch or listen to A whole podcast . With this one I finished it all and wanted to hear more!! Amazing warm and genuine guy!!❤❤

So plain to see how you resonate with each other and gel with your idea of what really is important in life. So REAL AND REFRESHING.

Really enjoy Ben's TV content...a real inspiration for some in our lost generation .

Also watched Mr Fogle live. Incredible man and always leaves me leaving after listening with something valuable

Incredible interview, so many points of resonance, some great lessons and experience to be learned from you two. Thank you so much Ben and Steve!

"overthinking' is anxiety.

These two are soo on the same page. Glad to see Ben Fogle seems to be the kind of person i always thought he was.

What a remarkable man. Well....two remarkable men. Loves these videos.

This conversation looks really fascinating! Ben is an inspiration, thanks for continuing to have such interesting guests on Steven!

Interesting…Thank you…Have recently been interested in the concept of people with Dyslexia, Autism etc having quirks of thinking that can be valuable to society. I would love to see education being tailored to give those people the opportunity to develop their special skills. It might have to be out of mainstream learning but not negatively perceived the way it is at present.

I am loving these interviews Steve! Addicted to listening to them whilst editing!! Ben you're awesome, thank you for being so honest!

"You are you" facts.. Absolutely loved this podcast.. Again such an inspiring man. 👏🏻👏🏻

This was my favourite one, Ben was just a fascinating guest and his vulnerability struck on so many levels. Superb podcast Steve mate

"...a few hundred metres now from the summit of peak confidence..." I'm not convinced that the inherently shy and self-berating can ever achieve peak confidence. It's a journey with built-in setbacks; it's a continuum, and growing to accept that fact is a side trail all on its own.

Absolutely brilliant podcast, this is so raw and true. Superb

Love Ben Fogle. His series on off grid living is excellent!

Hey Steve, another fantastic podcast, loved it again. Would love to see you talk about rejection and how rejection has either strengthened you or changed your direction. Recently been rejected from a job I was really hoping to get and left feeling a bit deflated. Hope to see you do more pods on your own as well as the great guests!

I loved this conversation.Ben was so open and honest and exacting in the way he talked about the need to truely be yourself and not allow others to doctae how you are..we really have come so far from being able to fulfil some of our most basic human needs and especially the need for human connection and community,with all our striving and competing we seem unhappier than ever. Also thinking of Ben having influence or being involved in education or politics then it would be amazing to him try to bring in more outdoor or adventurous peruits available to children and particularly those who do not get opportunities to go out camping and wild living,That would be something great to see more kids get to do outdoor persuits.I really hope he finds his thing because we really need more people out there who have managed to achieve alot of their personal goals helping others who do not get so many chnaces

I have known that feeling of pressure to achieve, having gone to private schools but then left higher education with very little to show for it. I'm sure an apprenticeship would have suited me better, and I agree with him that they should be pushed by schools and colleges. I then spent most of my 20's travelling and working low responsibility jobs. It wasn't until my early 30's that I eventually found a career path that gave me the right sort of challenge and now the salary to back it up, ultimately to build a life.

Wow, i am sooo amazed to hear this abt Ben Fogle who always comes across as the most handsome, capable, outdoor guy - heck we really need to open our minds to some different thinking + ways

I found the part on anonymity interesting because a lot of people focus on the negatives of anonymity whereas there's the other side of it albeit a smaller percentage who will do good deeds because of anonymity. I personally much prefer to remain anonymous when I do good than be known and have everyone put me on a pedestal I don't feel I deserve to be on but it is a side to anonymity that I don't really hear people talk about and it seems to tie in with this idea that as humans we relate better over the negatives because we struggle to see someone else be happier than us.

Fantastic podcast 👍🤗 Thank you both so much 🤗🙌

Wow wow wow.... I wanted more. Such a great guy and so much to share. Thank you to both of you for a great interview.

I love Ben Fogle ... what a kind, compassionate, inspiration he is.

I've been a huge fan of Ben for a number of years now, wonderful personality and I really enjoy reading his books and watching his programs. Another superb conversation thank you Steve.

Loved every part of the interview. Thank You 🌹

Have to say I’ve always liked Ben and followed him from his early castaway days, this was the best episode, ever a true insight into him , what a lovely man 💙🫶🏼

This was an excellent interview, one of my favs on the channel. What Ben's accomplished to date is nothing short of exceptional... stoked to see what he gets up to in the future.

Loved this episode!

Blimey! Talk about resonate… Thank you Steven & Ben, I needed to hear this.

Another great conversation 👏🏼

Fantastic, thank you both

Brilliant interview. I love this kind of stuff.

I’ve got to be honest I’ve never liked Ben Fogle since I was a kid, I’ve always been bitter about people from privileged backgrounds getting opportunities and experiences that normal people could only dream about obtaining. This interview just blow my mind and I see him in a total different light, and surprisingly, I can totally relate to him. Thank you for this amazing interview, he’s a top bloke for just being so honest and raw. X

Learnt more about you than Ben in this broadcast. Got alot of time for Ben, a totally genuine guy

Really resonates. Lots of good advice in this video.

Ben fogle is such a nice genuine bloke he's programs are great enjoyed the interview thanks

Awesome interview. Sometimes it's difficult to articulate the impact of self doubt but the discussion was captivating and really thought provoking 👏🏼

Looking forward to seeing this podcast hit 100k subs! It’s going to blow up very soon 👏🏻👏🏻

What a lovely guy Ben Fogke is. An inspiration!

Ben is an inspiring, emotional and fascinating human. I'm not surprised he's so close to animals - he's an old soul. I loved him and I thought your interview with him was golden broadcasting. 🥰. His sensitivity and honesty are his superpowers, and like many dyslexics, he struggles with self-doubt. "Follow your own path" is the dyslexic mantra. It's not easy, but it's the only authentic choice you have.

I've followed Ben's career since those very early days on Castaway - he always came across as such a down to earth, genuinely humble (in the best sense of the term) and beautiful human being. This was such a great interview I've come back to it time and again to digest it a bit further

I so enjoyed this guest. I Found myself nodding in agreement.happiness is deep contentment and intense joy in living and by a natural desire for it to continue within one's self.the best things in life are free.

Ben, you didn't fail at school. The school failed you. Even worse a private school that should refund your parents hard earned cash as they failed to deliver appropriate education. They are responsible for your decades of low confidence, but high five to you for building it!

Wow another great interview, smashed it 👏🏾👏🏾

Very valuable and highly interesting topics, my favorite podcast so far ;)

I completely agree with your way of being, thank you so much for this Ben Fogle

Very honest interview. Love what Ben said about regret and being unique as a person. Thank you for this, it was a light globe moment for me.🙏

I enjoyed that, thank you very relaxing and inspiring.

Candid and intelligent chat: useful video. Well done. 💯👏

Loved this, thank you.

All these sincere comments left by all his followers, they surely help To build up some confidence and self esteem. He is so well loved.

Lovely interview- Ben has always drawn interest from myself.

I love the idea of taking control of your narrative. I need to do this so badly because my narrative is definitely that I'm a loser

I love this. I would love to meet him in person. I struggle with self doubt and low self esteem. Inspiring

Considering the hard start what a comeback.

Oh this is so wonderful. Humbling. Beautiful

Thank you my friend for your dedication to your work god bless you
