BUCKiT® #23-John Keoghan: Plant Scientist, Greeter on The Amazing Race 13, Phil’s Dad

Exhausted contestants sprint to the finish mat at the bottom of the world. No one expects to be greeted by a tall man in a black suit and tie and a serious look surrounded by hundreds of sheep. The fate of each couple lies in the words about to come from his eldest son’s mouth. He’s mostly known by reality TV fans as the greeter of The Amazing Race 13 in New Zealand. And had his 15 seconds of fame with the following line, “Hi, I’m Phil’s dad, Welcome to New Zealand.” He’s known Phil longer than anyone, except his Mum. He's the reason Phil has a lust for travel, adventure, and meeting people. In this podcast, Phil’s Dad gives him some fatherly words of advice and reminds him why it's important to remember his humble Kiwi roots.
