Über diesen Titel

The Drift is hosted by filmmaker and angler Ben Brown, exploring the stories that flow beyond the tide. It is not just a fishing podcast, although you will hear from some of the legends of the water. It is about conversations with people who live life on their own terms, chasing adventure, creativity and meaning in wild and unpredictable ways.


From the deck of a trailer boat on New Zealand’s rugged coast to deep dives with creators, athletes and everyday characters, The Drift is a space for raw, authentic yarns that go beyond the surface. No scripts, no filters, just real conversations from the edge of the chart.

    The Drift, Episode 1: William the Fisherman


    In the very first episode of The Drift, host Ben Brown sits down with William Lomas, better known as William the Fisherman.


    William shares his journey from growing up around Glenbrook Beach and Port Waikato, to moving north and carving out a life built around fishing. He talks about his early days as a deckhand, why that path didn’t stick, and how he pivoted into creating raw, authentic fishing content on YouTube.


    The conversation dives into:


    • Growing up fishing the Manukau and the Far North
    • The shift from school life to chasing a career on the water
    • How Wild North Addiction on YouTube began with nothing more than a GoPro and a beat-up “bloke boat”
    • The grind of building an audience, finding sponsors, and learning the ropes of content creation
    • Why authenticity and a love of fishing remain at the core of everything he does


    It is a relaxed, honest yarn about risk, resilience, and following your own current, the perfect way to launch The Drift.
