The Sailing Podcast interviews Totem

May
Just recently, Jamie and I spent a really nice hour chatting with David Anderson of The Sailing Podcast. He and his wife Carina have a great series of interviews for sailors. David had been in touch with us a while back, but took months for us to be parked in a place with dependable internet access to Skype. The joys of cruising, right?

It was fun for us to kick back in the cockpit and chat away with David about everything from the reasons we went cruising, how our journey is financed, our approach to homeschooling on the boat, and ideas on where we’re headed next (we don’t really know, but it’s fun to think about).
Now that we’ve got some bandwidth, I’m looking forward to pulling down more of David’s podcasts to listen to. Having a podcast in one ear is among my favorite ways to pass time on a night watch, and he’s got some interesting subjects! My picks to listen to on next week’s 3-4ish day passage to Borneo:
- the awesome Mike Litzgow (who has a book on cruising the Pacific with his family that I really have to read someday)
- the uber practical Bill and Judy from sv Bebe talking financing and piracy
- the wow-cool looking family on Anasazi Girl (I’m absolutely in love with Somira’s gorgeous photos, and wonder how the %&$ you raise kids in a stripped out speed sailing machine)
- a sailboat based conservation/ research program in Myanmar (we love getting to be part of conservation and environmental work- hope it’s posted in time so we can learn more!)
- Mike from Zero to Cruising talking about their Caribbean adventures (I need to improve my attitude about that region and I’m pretty sure he can do it)
Nice selections David, we’re honored to be included! Thanks from our crew, we enjoyed the experience and hope to catch up again.
