95% of our ocean is unexplored. If that doesn’t make you sh*t your pants a little… we don’t know what will! There are so many “lost at sea” tales out there. But, what is it actually like to be lost at sea? How desperate would you actually get?
Well, today we’ve have a special guest, Hillary Burtnett, Kevin’s long time friend from his high school years. As a member of the US Coast Guard, she’s got the inside scoop on atrocities at sea. Also…cheating husbands with their pants down on a boat? Get it together people! I’m looking at YOU, Florida Man.
Kevin starts us off by taking us back in time to 1884, when a small crew set sail on the Mignonette, a small yacht that left out of the same port the Titanic would later leave from (bad juju, amiright?). Little did they know, this trip would turn them into cannibals! But these cannibals might actually be crowned “Cannibals with the Most Integrity,” because they admitted their crimes as soon as they were rescued. Slay!!!!... I suppose.
Brandon then takes us to for a deep dive into darker waters. Thanks a lot, Brandon! Oba Chandler, an average looking Joe who came from a family of dairy farmers, used his boat for pure evil. Are we surprised that a white straight man with a boat is an awful human being? No! But we were a bit surprised to find out that he was caught... you'll see why!
Moral of the story? Don’t get on a boat with a stranger! And maybe keep your pants on while you’re out there too. The ocean is way too convenient of a spot to dump a body. Go to the mountains instead! You can meet Kevin there.
