This very special episode opens with an unexpected moment: Jamie on the bagpipes, playing Amazing Grace from the middle of the Pacific Ocean — a surprise performance for fellow Scot and screen legend Ewan McGregor.

What follows is a warm, reflective conversation about adventure, identity, and the power of home. Ewan shares stories from his solo motorcycle trips, his deep connection to Scotland.

It’s a meeting of kindred spirits, brought together by a love of challenge, movement, and meaning. One boat. One freeze-dried dinner. One unforgettable guest.

Dinner with The Macleans is a podcast recorded entirely at sea, as three brothers row unsupported across the Pacific Ocean — from Peru to Australia, chasing purpose one oar stroke at a time.
