A little different one here guys, we try to capture stories before they are gone but sometimes they happen before we have a chance to listen or find their course. Much like a vessel with a following sea or a wave to the side, we can all be broadsided and take one that is too big to handle. When faced with the biggest wave of his life, Captain Pat Dwyer steered his course to securing the future for his family and did what any terminal man would do, he bought another boat.

Join us for our first female guest, Laura Hartema, author of BERING SEA STRONG, and see what it was like to be the only woman and scientist (fisheries observer) working alongside the fishermen. Her memoir shows us we sometimes have to choose the extreme to overcome our circumstances and prove our own strength. And by the way....she's frickin funny and amazing. :)
