How is it "solo" if two men are trying it?

He speaks about it on Rogan's podcast

I'm on O'Brady side. That National Geopgraphic article is a hack job. They didn't even talk to him about it.

3 requests for interviews that he passed on. Nat Geo author covered the entire episode and the author is informed by a handful of guys who essentially live and work on the continent. O’Brady’s a bit of a scam artist and once Ousland’s letter makes the rounds, I suspect even Rogan will call out O’Brady’s bullshite.

Do you know what's great after trudging across the tundra mile after mile? Pancakes.

Do they have my address?

They can send me a postcard and I am good.
