Captains Courageous by Rudyard Kipling

This episode is on Rudyard Kipling’s Captains Courageous. When spoiled rich boy Harvey Cheyne falls overboard from a luxury liner, he's saved by chance and hauled onto a fishing schooner. He is then plunged into a world that doesn't care about his wealth—only his willingness to work and learn. As we follow Harvey’s journey, we talk about what it takes to grow from a boy into a man—not through lectures or privileges, but through hard physical work, learning from those around you, and the quiet, steady leadership of hard working men. Sometimes the most valuable life lessons aren't spoken but learned by experience.
