I love this podcast! I highly recommedn it to everyone, especially for those who have been in the USCG. As a former Coastie (BM2) myself, I really enjoy hearing all of the different adventures, rescues and other experiences that my fellow servicemembers have had. While the stories are all unique in their own way, the common thread acroos them is just how much people who join the U.S. Coast Guard are wliing to do to help others.

Excellent podcast! It’s great to hear Coasties talking about their careers and exploits. C.G. personnel have a lot of unique experiences that no one else will ever understand unless they listen to this podcast.

You can tell the hosts are passionate about digging down and extracting the lessons learned from the guests, and not just bantering like other podcasts. Lessons learned, informative fun stories to fill your commute to work 🤙🏼🇺🇸⚓️

The podcast is great but suffers from overmodulation and unequal participant volume levels.
