Speaker 1 (00:07):
We are back on already, MICHAELA. They're playing patriotic music
and everything. So our question to you everybody listening, what
would it take for you to quit your nine to
five job or any job that you have cash in
on your four oh one k buy a boat and
sail the world?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
I mean, no fear, is what I think it would take,
absolutely no fear.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Or if you.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Did this, maybe you wouldn't want to sail the country
or the world. What would you do? What would make
you quit your job and try something new and inspirational? Travel?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I think would do it for me. How about you?
Like I would want to travel and do something purposeful?
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I know that go to Italy and watch my daughter.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, which would includ Josh Sarvar from cosiz in with us. Josh,
what would you?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I mean?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Does it sound crazy to you because it actually happened.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
It's out of the park. I see some good opportunities
out there.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, you said he would hike for a.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Long hike, maybe on the PCT or Appalation.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Trail, Pacific Crass Trails Highway. Maybe maybe I'm figuring you
had it right.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Okay, but that can't that highway can't be very far
from PCG.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
But I read it.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
That's a hard trail. It is.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
It's over twenty six hundred miles, so take you all
the way from it. You've been on it portions of it,
and actually I'm going back this summer to hike a
portion of the GMT, which is near Yosemite.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Well, you're not quitting your job Atkasai, right, because we
have an end with doctor Burtley. That's right, you have
to tell him. But we asked this question because this
literally is happening right now. A few years ago, this
man from Oregon was diagnosed with some spinal disease where
it could be debilitating. He's already he already has neck
issues and it may affect the rest of his body
(01:46):
as well. So he said, you know what, I'm cashing
in my four oh one k quit his nine to
five job, bought a boat. The man doesn't sail, so
we taught himself how to sail on YouTube, and then
he sailed from Oregon to Hawaii and he just I
didn't want to say landed in Hawaii, but ported, yeah,
in Hawaii yesterday. It took him twenty five days, and
we do have a little bit of sound from him
(02:08):
because all these people thought it was so cool when
he came into the world. Well what viral, Like, I mean,
that's too many and people were watching it. Yeah, Waiki
Ki Yacht Club gave him, made him an honorary member.
But listen to what he said afterwards, Go ahead, Chris.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
That would also like FaceTime like friends and stuff. So
I never I didn't get the full experience, which in
a way, like I wish I did, because all of
like the legends you know that have that have crossed
oceans before, I have never had starlink and stuff, and
they all like go insane in a way, and I
kind of like, I like, I wanted to experience that.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
He wanted to experience complete solitude. But he wasn't alone
because he had his cat, Phoenix with him.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Phoenix the cat, which we were also saying, a cat
is probably a better shipmate than a dog. I mean,
the dog would be wanting to jump in that water.
I would think, oh, yeah, you have to, and the
cat says, no, don't let me touch the water.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah, just bring me my letter box for twenty five days.
So now he's gonna live in Hawaii for the next
few months. But he's not done. He really wants to
sail the world. So his next stop is French Polynesia.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I didn't know that he wasn't done. Yeah, French Polynesia. Okay,
that's gonna be a trip. I cannot believe he did
this all on YouTube. I learned how to.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Do it and then they showed like helicopters dropping him
some food and some other items and stuff. But the
thing that you brought up, Mikayla is one hundred percent
spot on.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
He did.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's an announcement on Instagram. So all these people start
following his journey. Close to two million people followed this
whole thing. So when he came into Waikiki, is that
what it is?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yacht club.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah, there were all these people there just waiting for him,
cheering a man.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
And was listening to interviews with the people watching him
and waiting for him. They're like, he's such an inspiration.
But you know what, dude is just like me. They
were saying, he's just a regular guy who decided to
do this on a whim because he was diagnosed with something.
He's like, I'm who cares about you can't save all
your money for everything. I want to do something that
I want to do.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
He said, dear Corporate America, I won in one of
his posts. Yeah, and these followers and his whole journey.
You guys, if you haven't followed him yet on Instagram,
it's sailing underscore with Underscore Phoenix. So sailing with Phoenix
on Instagram left his eleven year job.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Wow. I just what a great story.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I think it should make us think about what is
possible when we are.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Story And I love that he was able to stay
connected that whole time. That's the sort of that lifelong
learning that we do at Kosai. But think that he was,
you know, youtubeing it as he was in real time,
right in the middle of the water. Situational.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Maybe you have to because if you've only watched the
videos prior to the trip and you have a little
bit of like trouble with the sale or something, you
have to pull out your reference materials.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Probably chat gpt in it the whole time.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I think he taught himself before he actually set sales.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Good.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I think he wants these YouTube videos taught himself how
to sail and then set sail. But he did it,
you know, he actually did it, and like he said,
he kind of wished he would have been no Facebook
or no star Link. He would just would have been
his cat and himself. But that's not the way the
world is these days.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
You've got that opportunity to use it, use it.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Glad he made it. Good hot topic, good viral video
to talk about. We'll have another one coming up in
a five o'clock hour that has to do with graduation.
You guys are gonna love it. But Josh, we are
so glad you were here, and we're gonna do some giveaways.
It sounds like coming up here in a couple minutes.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
That's right as always, because there's some new things at
Kosai and we love being the first to tell our
listeners what's at Kosai.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
