I got to sit down with two other captains (Tom Rogers and Ken Lazarus) to talk all about the Sea Scouts program in Tacoma WA. Tom was the star of the show with over 60 years experience working with the Sea Scouts. We talk all about the program and the life-long impact it has on so many. We also talk about "running a fathom line" for navigation, how to memorize the signal flags and their meaning (you will never in a million years forget the "Whiskey" flag after listening to this episode!) as well as the state of the youth today (Tom's answer might surprise you).

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
