Life After Heart Surgery: One Year On

In this episode of the Motorhome Matt podcast, it’s been a year since Matt had his big health scare, and we’re revisiting the journey. From unexpected heart surgery to an ongoing road to recovery, Matt opens up about his physical and mental challenges, and why looking after your health is as important as checking your tyre pressure before a big trip.

We also chat with Andrew Dickens, who shares his own health scare, while Keith describes how a severe leg cramp led to a life-changing diagnosis. It’s an open, honest discussion about health—and the importance of getting checked, especially for those of us who sometimes take better care of our vans than ourselves.

Plus, this week is the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show 2025 at the NEC Birmingham, where Matt will be hosting expert panels and teaming up with Andrew Dickens for a fun dessert-making session. Don’t forget—you can save on tickets with the code MATT.

Plus in the Q&A, Keith from Worthing asks about tyre puncture sealants and reliable inflators, Lewis from Rotherham shares his insurance problem (and how Ripe stepped up), and Robert from sunny Spain wonders if he’ll be able to drive a 4.25-tonne motorhome on a B licence.
