If you’ve been tuning in to Kerryn’s adventure tips these past few weeks, you know he’s got plenty of wisdom to share… but sometimes the words don’t quite cooperate.

So here it is — the bloopers episode! True to Kerryn’s style, it’s packed with laughs, stumbles, and the kind of realness we can all relate to.

As you head out on your weekend adventure (gear packed and plans sorted, of course), don’t forget to bring one essential item: a good laugh.

Happy Saturday, legends — from Kerryn and the RescueMED team.
