Old comic from ‘23, when I was still working my way through the various heroic age expedition books and noticing some… similarities

I'm curious if Hussey ever had any recordings of his voice available, because he just seems like the type that someone would naturally want to record, and if anyone knew it would probably be you.

He does! Some of them we only have records of, like this 1926 one...

... But there are a few online I can share here!

The new Endurance documentary (2024) has some clips of him talking, if you can access that on streaming. The documentary they pull from is from 1957, and features multiple members of the crew together in the studio — and if you're ever interested in the full thing, it can be seen in-person at the BFI!

Here's a longer broadcast with multiple audio clips of the crew scattered throughout (Hussey at 25:10 and 51:26)

Here's a 'Witness History' podcast episode with old interview clips with the crew, including Hussey (it doesn't say which crew member is talking but his voice is at 3:28)

And this forum has a little interview with him on the BBC including some banjo-ing, which I'll post here:

and here's a pic of him at the BBC in from a different show in 1943 that seems to have been lost to time!

Two Endurance birthday boys today, here engaged in one of their sing-alongs: “cheery little fellow” Alf Cheetham with his squeaky voice, and “peppery little individual” Leonard Hussey with his banjo!

Endurance crew + dogs in South (1919) (check alt text for specific crew members!)

#(don't ask why they suddenly stop being mentioned halfway through the film)#jk if you're here you probably know the deal by now with animals on polar expeditions #but I always find it funny how South never mentions what happened to them. ummm they live on a farm in antarctica now guys :) yay #polar exploration #polar explorers #antarctic exploration #endurance expedition #ernest shackleton #cold boys #polar research tag

Been thinking about Endurance Tent 4 this evening so here's a silly one from last year :))

This one goes out to all the photos of bespectacled explorers out there

#idk man #polar exploration #art tag #Alexander macklin #leonard hussey #endurance expedition #polar explorers #antarctic exploration #cold boys

will hopefully have time to post polar art again soon, but in the meantime here’s a real and factual interview with leonard hussey

#polar exploration #polar explorers #leonard hussey #antarctic exploration #endurance expedition #cold boys #tagging this with all my proper polar tags and nodding seriously #polar tag

Any time someone reblogs my Endurance comix with some tag about wanting to look into the expedition more, just know that I’m hovering over your shoulder rubbing my hands together like a fly and cackling nefariously

#first comes the endurancepilling and then. One day. the questpilling #don’t you want to learn about Shackleton dying and all his crew coping poorly? doesn’t that sound Fun :)#anyway jokes aside it makes me soooo happy when I see those tags!!

The crazy thing about this comic is that I drew it long before I’d read Hussey’s expedition diary where he routinely says “Hip hip hooray!” /“Superb!!!” / “Wow-wow!!!” / “Why worry?” and the like. He just gave that Vibe in later interviews
