Audacious at sea: Wisdom from strangers on a cruise ship

from Audacious with Chion Wolf · host Connecticut Public Radio

A wise woman once said, “You can tell the ocean anything, but it has to be the truth.“  Chion Wolf boards the MSC Meraviglia expecting a week of small talk and sunscreen. But the farther she gets from land, the more people become willing to hang out in the deep end to talk about love, loss, faith, sobriety and stories they’ve been holding onto for years. When they speak, the ocean listens. And in this hour, so do you. Listen to a BONUS track featuring more voices from the ship: Latisha from the Bronx; Vincent Ferrito and Lauren Englemann from Brooklyn, NY; Brittney and Jeana Lockhart from New Bedford, MA; Henry Armbrister, Barbara Williams, Dellie Maycock, and Giovanni Ferguson from Nassau, Bahamas.
