Slinging Meat in South Philadelphia... Not what you are thinking! The Meat Man gives us the rundown on having a side hustle. He has sales pitches that scratch itches. He talks about how he ended up in the Merchant Marine, playing black jack in Panama, and his top three scariest moments at sea. The Meat Man gives a history lesson about The Public Health Service Hospitals and how Merchant Mariners used to get their health care. What's it like when you get close to retirement? We also talk about the recently sunken vessel Gulf Livestock 1, and the dredge that exploded in Corpus Christi, Waymon Boyd.
