Ep. 14: Rowing Goes Nuclear

In this episode I got a chance to sit down with a man whose resume extends from high school and college rowing championships all the way to being a special advisor to Reagan during his Presidency and a long career in the field of nuclear deterrence. Aside from all of that, Chris is currently trying to bring home a WWII ship from Northern California, down through the Panama Canal, and up to Philadelphia by mid-October for the Navy's 250th birthday.
