On the Edge national special
On the Edge is a show all about introducing you to people who push their limits for work or just pleasure. Host Paul Karchut
takes a crack at street luging, hang gliding, water ski jumping and bull riding. He also chats with world-renowned travel author Dervla
Murphy to find out about her approach to adventure and Vancouver-native William
Winram tells us about his unusual career - swimming with sharks for a
living. Perhaps On the Edge will inspire you to get a bit more adventurous, too!
The special airs on February 20th from 4-5pm across Canada on CBC radio one or listen to it here at your convenience...

About Paul Karchut
Paul Karchut is a character well-known to Calgary listeners. He has been the Eyeopener's outdoor
and ski columnist for five seasons now. At 18-years-old, he set off on his bicycle for
a solo trip from Victoria to St. John's. His passion for the outdoors has just
continued to grow: travelling the world in his early twenties as a sponsored
extreme skier; riding into the far and secluded Canadian Arctic with not much
more than an offroad motorbike and a flyfishing rod for four months; and testing
his physical limit as an ultra marathon runner. Paul counts himself as one of those lucky people who
can combine his passions into a job
