“Anyone who likes a crazy story about the wild, fun, and sometimes harrowing things that happen in the outdoors is going to enjoy this one.”—Steven Rinella on MeatEater’s Campfire Stories: Close Calls
As you embark on early fall adventures—especially those taking you into the great outdoors—audiobooks can serve as both ideal travel companions and an excellent source of stories to share by the fire. Enter MeatEater’s Campfire Stories, a series of audiobook originals from Steven Rinella, renowned outdoorsman and host of the Netflix series MeatEater, joined by members of the MeatEater Crew and an array of additional contributors. The series features true stories of grit and survival, and are as road trip ready as they are wilderness trained.
In the newest installment, MeatEater’s Campfire Stories: Discoveries, Revelations & Near Misses, a collection of outdoorsmen share eleven tales of life-altering moments. From a macabre discovery in the Idaho mountains to an Ice Age archaeological find in remote Alaska, these stories take listeners on an immersive journey and provide intimate glimpses into a way of life that is slipping away. You’ll hear firsthand accounts of a deadly helicopter crash, a fight over a record-breaking black bear, plus more stories about close calls and brushes with death.
