Show Notes
Ep 17: Liam and I have been acquainted over the years with thanks to our many days spent working together as TV and film extras.
We did reminisce briefly about some of the productions we have both worked on together, but the main focus of today's episode, was to get a bit more of an insight into the Royal Navy.
Liam spent four years as an officer cadet, and recounted various tales from his time during training, being away at sea on deployment, remembrance day parades, nauseous voyages and tracking down the Russians.
I wanted to keep the door open on DeckTales to not only look behind the scenes of the cruise ship industry, but other types of maritime career as well.
Hopefully this will mean that mariners of many other backgrounds will feel the show has more to offer, and who knows, maybe one day they'll reach out to be a guest in the future.
As my own background lies heavily in the cruise ship industry, a lot of my contacts do stem from there, but as the show grows, I hope it can grow roots and spread to other niches within the shipping sector.
Enjoy!
