Join Marc Newton and special guests around a black-tie campfire at Royal Thabane Lodge. In this special edition of the Rigby Campfire Podcast, Managing Director Marc Newton gathers Alex and Danielle McDonald alongside two bona fide hunting legends — Paul Roberts and Buzz Charlton — for a chat under the African night sky.
Recorded beside a crackling fire under the iconic silhouette of a baobab tree, this conversation is rooted in experience, stewardship and history earned the proper way.Together, they explore one of Africa’s most compelling conservation stories: the transformation of former cattle land into thriving wildlife habitat through private custodianship, ethical hunting and long-term vision.
South Africa now holds more game than at any point in recent memory — a remarkable resurgence shaped not by chance, but by careful management and responsibility.
Paul reflects on a lifetime spent in Africa, sharing stories that span continents and generations, including the enduring legacy of his iconic .416 Rigby. Buzz offers the perspective of a seasoned international hunter, observing the evolution of modern South African safaris with clarity and candour. Alex and Danielle share the realities of land stewardship today, where conservation and hunting are inextricably linked.With humour, depth and hard-won insight, this episode is an evening spent in distinguished company around the fire, where the best stories are shared and the future of wildlife is shaped.
