Clever Dicks
A light hearted podcast by swimmers for ordinary people who like to swim.
Duncan & Jim have relaxed chats with many swimmers, and people around swimming. Most of the swimmers are New Zealand based, but we talk to swimmers around the world too.
All the swimmers have great stories to tell, many have dome cold swimming, many have done feats of endurance, but all are epic in their own way.

E36 - Milton Brest - Neoprene, Eskimo's, testosterone and a swim from Panama to Colombia!
Milton Brest is not just a businessman from Johannesburg—he’s a force of nature. A former karate athlete, he has taken on some of the world’s most extreme open-water challenges, from braving the icy waters of the Bering Strait to swimming the treacherous currents around Alcatraz and Robben Island, meeting Eskimo's and swimming at the Base Camp of Everest. Training just steps away from the legendary Ellis Park Stadium, the home of Springbok rugby, Milton is no stranger to discipline and endurance.
Beyond his incredible athletic feats, Milton has also been a bit of a mentor to me, and today, we’ll be unpacking the mindset, motivation, and life lessons behind his adventures. So, whether you're here for inspiration, adventure, or just a great conversation—stick around. This is going to be a good one!"
