About this listen

Joining us in the Audible studios is Sam Heughan, the Scottish actor best known for his role as Jamie Fraser in Outlander.

Heughan began his career in theatre, receiving an Olivier award nomination while still studying at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama. He has appeared in television shows such as Doctors, Rebus and films including Heart of Lightness and The Spy Who Dumped Me.

In his memoir Waypoints, Heughan digs into his Scottish heritage by hiking the West Highland Way, and along the journey he recounts the life and career events that have shaped him and his personal values.

We spoke to Sam Heughan about the joys and trials of West Highland Way, his journey towards processing the absence of his dad, and how the creation of his Outlander family came at just the point he needed in his career.

Loved hearing the stories

I enjoyed this quick interview with Sam Heughan and a little preview of his memoir. However, the interviewer became annoying fast by leading each question with, "And...". It became quite distracting.

Looking forward to listening to the book

I enjoyed the interview. Sam discussed a number of interesting events in his life. The discussion lead me to purchasing the audible version of a book that I otherwise might have missed. It is really special to listen to the author narrate his own biography.

Interesting and Entertaining

I’d recommend this to anyone who is a fan of Sam Heughan. Sam is a natural storyteller. If you haven’t read Waypoints yet, this is a good introduction into that book. Everything Sam talks about here is covered in Waypoints. You’ll get a glimpse into his hiking adventure and his life.

Its Sam!

I think everything Sam narrates or interviews is spectacular so I may be a bit biased. This is a great interview. Gives the feeling of being a fly on the wall while friends chat. Sam has a real gift of for sharing.
