Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. El Toro Sailing. My US Navy pediatric nurse off-duty days were spent sailing a tiny boat in the shipping channel off the Port of Norfolk. Believe it or not I sailed an 8x4 foot single-masted, centerboard El Toro that flew across the water. An old skipper powered a battered motor boat across the waves, curling around my boat with a great rooster tail spraying, and hurled a white styrofoam block wrapped with an old rope. It landed right in my lap. The block had been hollowed out to fit 2 cold cans of beer. That was a good day! Bad days. But when the days weren't so good, when I had more downs than ups, kids got worse, some died, moms needed comforting and support when dads were away at sea, self-doubts about working pediatrics crowded my thoughts, or a well-deserved leave was cancelled, I had to learn to “hold fast.” Hold Fast at Sea. For centuries sailing was a dangerous profession, and ships were often caught in storms or rough seas. “Hold fast!” commanded sailors to secure equipment, and ropes or lines to prevent accidents or maintain safety and stability on ships especially during turbulent weather conditions. Sailors would shout “hold fast!” to each other when they needed to grab onto something firmly so that they wouldn't get thrown off balance by the towering waves. Sailors learned quickly that “hold fast” means to maintain a firm grip on something despite external forces trying to pull it away. It could come down to saving a life or “man overboard” at a time when few boys and men knew how to swim. Hold Fast Today. Over time, “hold fast” came to mean strength, perseverance and determination in facing adversity when challenges threatened to unmoor your own stability. While the old nautical term and the present day variation have distinct meanings, they share a common thread: steadfastness. Whether you're holding onto a rope during rough seas or standing up for what you believe in, “hold fast” requires unwavering commitment and resilience. The Future Will Prevail. The unprecedented conditions we find ourselves in today demand a grounded personal presence of internal strength and determination, maintaining one's grip on values, kindness, empathy, and holding on to hope. The worn out, deteriorated, broken-down, and decaying patriarchy is railing against the future. The future will prevail. We must hold fast so that it arrives. Hold fast with all the resilience you can muster even when you feel you cannot hold fast a moment longer. That is the place the tide will turn. CTA: What if we hold fast and we get things right? Check out World Economic Forum's Sustainable Development Vision for 2030 to give yourself a bit more hope: Thank you for listening. I'm glad you're here.

Happy National New Jersey Day and apologizing for "winging it" while living in temporary shore chaos with random neighborhood kids wandering into the house. We recap a wild week that included breathing in Canadian wildfire smoke and surviving an unannounced flash hurricane that flooded the streets, floated shoes and bikes, and washed un-secured drywall from the controversial LBI mega house directly into the bay. The beach badge checkers are also out in full force, prompting Erin to sprint into the ocean in street clothes to evade them for 45 minutes before discovering the rules changed to require badges even for surfers. Another event of the week, however, was Dan's three hour sailboat rescue where he had to jump into the stormy bay to tie a bowline knot and fix his broken Sunfish boat while saving a beginner sailor who blew downwind. We also file a formal complaint about Dan asking Erin to fetch ambiguous tools from his five different toolboxes, recount a neighbor dropping off sourdough bread wrapped in twine mid-recording, and recap the chaos of police and fire showing up for an alarm while the homeowner's daughter was 30 seconds away from singing opera in Prague. In sports and pop culture, we discuss the "5K Guy" who faced internet backlash for running a 5K in his World Cup seat before clarifying he was safely in a brand sponsored section. Erin also drops a massive announcement about scoring an Apple TV brand invite to the Ted Lasso Season 4 premiere and a courtside WNBA game in LA. We introduce a new sport called "Cycle Ball"—aggressive indoor soccer played on bicycles—and react to a Red Bull stunt featuring a stuntwoman jumping from an extreme height into a pile of hay. We also debate a viral video of an elite runner mom waving off her clueless husband and kids when they ran onto the course 15 feet before the finish line, and we hype up the Philadelphia Parallel Parking Championship featuring an "under duress" category. Finally, we vent our frustrations over a gut health company stealing Erin's video about bloating and adding a creepy, glitchy AI spokesperson to sell their product. After reading through a list of hilarious blue collar insults, we share an update on the Cyclospora parasite outbreak. We wrap up with "No Bad, No Sad," celebrating an elite Uber driver named Rob with over 14,000 rides who ended up eating drive thru food, playing board games, and chilling in a jacuzzi with his passengers.
Welcome back to another episode of the Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States Podcast! In this episode, Mark Tieszen discusses sailing to the Dry Tortugas, Flotilla Safety, and Cruising Lessons Learned,You might remember Mark from his gripping appearance in Episodes 79 and 80, where he detailed the intense experience of running his 45-foot sailboat aground and washing up on a beach at night. Thankfully, this conversation centers on a much happier adventure—his successful blue water passage from the west coast of Florida to the breathtaking Dry Tortugas.Getting to this remote national park is no small feat. For Mark, this journey was a masterclass in patience and persistence, as it marked his fifth attempt over a ten-year period to successfully make the crossing. He opens up about his previous four attempts and the critical decision-making processes that led him to turn back when conditions weren't right. Mark breaks down the specific challenges of those past trips, including severe weather shifts, a sailing partner's sudden accident, and the unexpected government lockdowns of COVID-19 in Key West. He also breaks down the factors behind turning around during a fourth attempt with a Florida boating club flotilla, when high easterly winds promised a dangerously uncomfortable anchorage.This episode highlights the immense benefits and safety of sailing in a organized group or flotilla, utilizing a "hop-on, hop-off" itinerary managed by a cruise captain. Mark outlines their multi-day route skipping down the Florida coast to the Everglades, Marathon, and Key West, before finally conquering the final blue water stretch. Beyond the navigation logistics, you will get a fantastic history lesson on the Dry Tortugas and its surrounding strategic areas.Visual Episode Alert: Mark put together custom navigation charts, route diagrams, and gorgeous photos to document this successful trip.

There is a potentially huge development for the missing Michigan woman whose husband claimed fell off their dinghy in rough waters in the Bahamas. While the body of Lynette Hooker has not been found, investigators believe she may never have fallen out of the dingy. There is a new theory that Hooker may have had an altercation on the sailboat she shared with her husband Brian. Hooker’s mom has been giving interviews saying foul play was involved in her daughter’s death, adding that the investigation is taking longer than she anticipated, “but that’s what the coast guard told me to say.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Lynette Hooker disappearance: On the night Lynette Hooker went missing in the Bahamas, the Soulmate's AIS tracking system — the transponder that broadcasts a vessel's position to other boats and to authorities — stopped transmitting for eleven hours. It went dark. Then it came back on.If it had failed permanently, you'd assume a hardware malfunction. But shutting off and restarting is what happens when someone disables the system and turns it back on later. A maritime expert quoted in reporting on the investigation called the shutoff “highly suspicious.” There were three additional blackout periods in the days that followed.Lynette, 55, from Onsted, Michigan, and her husband Brian had been living aboard their sailboat Soulmate and documenting their travels on a YouTube channel called The Sailing Hookers. On April 4, the couple left dinner at the Abaco Inn in Hope Town and headed out on an eight-foot dinghy toward their anchored sailboat. Brian told police Lynette fell overboard with the ignition key, the engine cut, and the current took her. He paddled to shore and reported her missing hours later.Investigators found GPS data from Brian's own device that contradicted his account and pointed to a different location in the Sea of Abaco. The Coast Guard seized the Soulmate at sea in a federal interdiction operation off the Florida coast and sent it to Fort Lauderdale for forensic analysis. Evidence is being processed by the FBI at Quantico. The case is being investigated as a possible foreign murder of a U.S. national. A $33,000 thermal camera on the Soulmate — capable of detecting a person in the water — was never activated that night.Lynette's daughter, Karli Aylesworth, has alleged Brian had a history of choking her mother and threatening to throw her overboard. A 2015 Michigan police report documents a domestic incident between the couple. Brian has denied all wrongdoing and has not been charged. Coast Guard divers returned to the Bahamas in June to search the area identified by the GPS data, deploying underwater vehicles, drones, and a cadaver dog. The search has concluded.

Being or Doing? Today, Mike again looks at the principle of Abiding as he brings sailboats into the conversation. Followers of Jesus do things, but only as a result of abiding. If we abide in Him, then we will bear fruit. If we don't abide, then in God's eyes we cannot do anything. -------- Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight, and all the twinkling starry host: Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer than all the angels heaven can boast. Beautiful Savior! Lord of all the nations! Son of God and Son of Man! Glory and honor, praise, adoration, now and forevermore be thine.
She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. How One Woman Turned Trauma, Survival, and Heartbreak Into a Story of Reinvention. Life rarely follows the script people imagine. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. For Angela Harger Thompson is our guest. What began as a promising life in Southern California became a journey marked by trauma, survival, adventure, heartbreak, and ultimately transformation. Her story now reaches audiences through a book, a documentary movie, social media, and appearances on Podcast and Radio platforms across the country. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio Today, Angela speaks openly about a devastating sexual assault that altered the course of her life and the extraordinary experiences that followed. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Her story is one of resilience, truth-telling, and finding purpose after unimaginable pain. She Was Raped in Hollywood Before the sailboat adventures, before the documentary film, and before writing her memoir, Angela endured a traumatic experience that would leave lasting emotional scars. She says she was drugged and sexually assaulted by someone she knew. The show is inspiring audiences through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple, Spotify, iHeartradio and and many Podcast platforms. Like millions of women across America, Angela found herself confronting the painful reality of sexual violence. According to national studies, millions of women in the United States have experienced sexual assault while intoxicated, drugged, or otherwise incapacitated. In many cases, perpetrators use alcohol or drugs to make victims vulnerable, confused, unable to resist, or unable to remember what happened. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. "The hardest part wasn't just surviving it," Angela has explained. "It was learning how to live afterward." The emotional impact followed her for years. The betrayal, loss of trust, and trauma shaped many of the decisions that came next in her life. An Invitation That Changed Everything As she struggled to rebuild, a friend offered what seemed like an incredible opportunity. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. A sailboat voyage across the Pacific Ocean. It sounded like adventure. It sounded like freedom. It sounded like a chance to start over. Angela accepted. What she couldn't know was that the journey would soon become one of the most challenging experiences of her life. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. The Sailboat Trials at Sea In March 2020, Angela boarded a sailboat in Panama alongside five crew members and one beloved sea dog. The plan was simple: cross the Pacific Ocean and explore some of the world's most beautiful destinations. Then the world changed. Just one week into the voyage, news arrived through satellite communications. COVID-19 had become a global pandemic. Borders were closing. Governments were implementing restrictions. Ports were refusing entry. Entire nations were shutting down. Suddenly, the crew found themselves isolated in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with no clear destination and no certainty about what awaited them. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. "It felt like the world disappeared overnight," Angela recalled. As the pandemic spread, tensions aboard the vessel increased. Relationships became strained. What had begun as a dream adventure gradually evolved into a test of endurance, trust, and survival. The relationship with her sailing companion deteriorated, creating additional emotional challenges while trapped thousands of miles from shore. The experience would later become the foundation for a documentary film. The Movie: Quarantine at Sea Angela eventually transformed her extraordinary experience into a documentary movie titled Quarantine at Sea. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. The film follows the crew's journey as they navigate the uncertainty of a world suddenly consumed by fear and restrictions. Facing closed borders, changing government regulations, and limited options for safe harbor, the sailors were forced to make difficult decisions while isolated at sea. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. The documentary resonated with audiences because it captured something universal. Everyone remembers where they were when the world shut down. Very few experienced it from the middle of the Pacific Ocean. "People think it's a sailing story," Angela said. "But it's really a story about uncertainty, resilience, and what happens when everything you thought was stable suddenly disappears." The complete interview is available as a Free Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and major podcast platforms. The Book: Worst Tits Ever Angela's story didn't end with the documentary. She expanded her experiences into a deeply personal memoir titled Worst Tits Ever. Released in 2026, the book chronicles her journey through trauma, heartbreak, faith, survival, loss, and personal reinvention. The memoir explores not only her experience stranded at sea during COVID-19 but also the emotional battles that shaped her long before stepping aboard the sailboat. Blending humor with vulnerability, the book offers readers an unfiltered look at how one woman confronted adversity and found strength in unexpected places. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. "It isn't just about survival," she explained. "It's about learning who you are when everything familiar is stripped away." Hear her story on: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Facebook Instagram The memoir is available in print, digital, and audiobook formats. Helping Others Tell Their Stories Following the success of her documentary and memoir, Angela discovered a new mission. Helping others tell their own stories. Through her Storytell Initiative Course, she teaches aspiring writers, speakers, and creators how to transform personal experiences into meaningful artistic works. Whether through books, documentaries, films, speaking engagements, or digital content, her goal is to help people find their voice. Listeners can hear the complete interview on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and other major Podcast, Radio, News, and Media platforms. "Everyone has a story," she says. "Many people just need help discovering how to tell it." Her work focuses on authenticity, healing, and connection. She believes stories have the power to change lives. Her own journey serves as proof. Life After Trauma Today, Angela lives in Southern California with her husband. She enjoys acting, studying improv, rollerblading, hiking, and exploring the California coast. Her life looks very different from the one she imagined years ago. Yet every chapter, including the painful ones, helped shape the person she became. From surviving sexual assault to navigating the uncertainty of the pandemic at sea, Angela's story demonstrates the remarkable resilience of the human spirit. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. It is a story that continues to inspire audiences through Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and other Podcast and social media platforms. Through her book, her movie, and her public speaking, she reminds others that even the most painful experiences do not have to define the future. Sometimes the most powerful stories emerge from the darkest storms. And sometimes surviving the storm becomes the story itself.

On this ladies-only Municibid Monday, Sophie and Jackie set sail with a 1983 Seafarer sailboat that was sitting at just $100 when they found it. With summer around the corner, they discuss its potential as a starter boat, a restoration project, or even a unique Airbnb rental.This episode features active auctions worth watching, including a 2021 Ford Transit cargo van, a 2014 Chevrolet 3500 ambulance, a 2009 Harley-Davidson Police Electra Glide, a 2020 Bobcat mini excavator, and a 2005 Mack Granite dump truck.Plus, the team recaps notable sales from the past week, including a 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe, a lightweight maintenance enclosure, a 2010 John Deere tractor with a Tiger boom mower, and a 1986 AM General Hummer.Rounding out the episode: a practical explanation of how proxy bidding works on Municibid, why bidders may be instantly outbid, and how adding a few extra dollars to a proxy bid is a great winning strategy.Key Takeaways:We welcomed new sellers this week from Pennsylvania, Missouri, New York, and Massachusetts.First-time listings included cargo vans, ambulances, buses, and public works equipment.Auction highlights included a $100 sailboat, a police motorcycle, a newer Bobcat mini excavator, and multiple ambulances with strong reuse potential.Recent sales included a Chevrolet Tahoe, maintenance enclosure, John Deere tractor, and AM General Hummer.Proxy bidding lets bidders enter their true maximum while the system bids only as much as needed to keep them in the lead.Additional Resources:Explore government surplus auctions at Municibid: https://municibid.comGot feedback or want to be a guest?

Mike Nicoletti is the founder and general partner of Top Mark Capital, a concentrated long-term investor who built his firm from a $110,000 seed during business school, drawing on experiences spanning tech consulting in Stockholm, competitive offshore sailing, and startup ventures.Episode Sponsor: Fiscal AI is a modern data terminal that gives investors instant access to twenty years of financials, earnings transcripts, and extensive segment and KPI data—use my link for a two-week free trial plus 15% off: https://fiscal.ai/talkingbillions/5:00 — Mike's family origin story: born near Toronto, his grandmother was a Jacuzzi — the family behind the iconic brand. From airplane propellers in WWI to water pumps to hydrotherapy, entrepreneurship ran deep.12:00 — The Jacuzzi family sold the business in 1979 at a bad time; infighting over share distribution led to the undoing. Mike's father passed away suddenly when Mike was seven, reshaping his childhood.16:00 — Stepfather John introduced frugality and discipline. The $1/week allowance ledger, $5 lawn mowing, and a grandfather's advice — "Sounds like you need some new customers" — sparked Mike's entrepreneurial instincts.20:00 — Sailing discovery: learned on a chalkboard, walked onto a college team with zero experience, eventually pursued competitive offshore racing. Sailing opened doors and became a lifelong thread.27:00 — In New York prepping a sailboat, Mike stumbles into Brian H. Lawrence's investing circle at Oak Cliff Sailing. Lawrence seeds Top Mark Capital with $100,000; Mike had $10,000.33:00 — Joel Greenblatt sighting at the Lawrence office. Brian Lawrence Jr. guides Mike through fund setup. "I just did it" — filed Delaware entities, opened Interactive Brokers, built it from scratch.40:00 — Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: static vs. dynamic quality as a framework for value investing. Value investors hunt for dynamic quality; dogma is dynamic quality that became static.45:00 — Top Mark's asymmetry thesis: buy quality businesses with unrecognized option value exposed to long-arc trends. Venture capital's trend-identification applied to public equities.53:00 — "Software is eating the world" evolution: from cloud to AI/ML to the current harness phase — Claude Code, Cursor, Perplexity. Enormous infrastructure demand ahead.59:00 — Healthcare disruption: genomic sequencing costs dropped from $1 billion to ~$200. Diagnostics + AI will reshape the care model before patients even see a doctor.1:07:00 — Partnerships over transactions. Buffett told Brian Lawrence only 1-2% of world capital is invested this way — and Berkshire is half of it.1:10:00 — Success defined: Mom's family had love without wealth, Dad's family had wealth with problems, the Lawrences had both. "Surround yourself with good people."1:12:00 — Restoring what was lost: the Jacuzzi fortune, Polish communism — generational wealth as inspiration, not entitlement.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

More than a month after Lynette Hooker disappeared off a dinghy in the Bahamas, the U.S. Coast Guard Investigative Service has gone public with a request that tells you exactly where this case actually is. They are looking for the owner of a different sailboat — one that was moored near the Hookers' yacht Soulmate in Aunt Pat's Bay on the night Lynette vanished. They have grainy photographs. They want whoever was on that boat to come forward.In other words: investigators are no longer just retracing the dinghy route Brian Hooker said he and his wife took. They are looking for somebody else who saw something.This episode lays out the full case from April 4 to where it stands now. The 55-year-old Michigan woman who fell — by her husband's account — into choppy water at dusk. The ex-Marine husband who paddled away for hours instead of dropping anchor. The daughter who went on national television and said her stepfather had a history of choking her mother and threatening to throw her overboard. The 2024 messages obtained by CBS News, in which Lynette told a friend named Marnee Stevenson, in her own words, that it was real bad and she couldn't be out there with him — and the reconciliation that came a month later.And the long marriage with police calls in both directions, including Brian's 2006 acquittal on a child abuse charge and a 2015 mutual-assault incident in Michigan that ended without charges.Brian Hooker is back in Michigan. He has not been charged. He denies any wrongdoing. The Royal Bahamas Police still consider him a suspect. The Coast Guard is still looking for that sailboat.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What does a lone sailor circling the globe have to do with the fall of empires, the Model T, and the rise of AI? Everything--because maintenance, the quiet act of keeping things going, turns out to be the hidden force behind success and failure in nearly every domain of human endeavor. EconTalk's Russ Roberts speaks with Stewart Brand --creator of the Whole Earth Catalog, founder of the Long Now Foundation, and one of the great connective thinkers of the last half-century--to explore why some people and civilizations thrive while others collapse. From the 1968 Golden Globe Race, where three sailors' radically different attitudes toward maintenance determined their fates, to the M-16's deadly design flaws in Vietnam, to the cultural reasons Israel excels at crisis response but struggles with prevention, Brand ranges across history, warfare, technology, and philosophy. Along the way, they discuss John Deere's war against its own farmers, the Model T as democratic revolution, and what AI might mean for human vigilance and connection. A wide-ranging, endlessly surprising conversation about the unglamorous work that holds everything together.

Alok Sama was a high-flying CFO who fraternized with the world's richest men. But he wasn't immune from intimidation. Anonymous letters sent to his boss, Softbank's Masayoshi Son, accused him of corruption. Suddenly, shadowy “shareholders” emerged from nowhere, and a whisper campaign quietly derailed his career. Then - as he recounts to Olly in this compelling conversation - Alok discovered his family was under surveillance. Desperate, he met men claiming ties to Mossad. And ultimately walked away, with first-hand experience of the corporate espionage that lurks in the shadows of Britain's biggest companies. Alok's book, The Money Trap, is out now. _____________ Meanwhile, in the Zeitgeist, Ollie Peart - fresh from veritably leaping into his forties - tests out the viral wellness trend for ‘sleepmaxxing'. Can grounding sheets, a bone-conducting pillow-speaker, or light therapy help him get his forty winks? With the aid of the National Sleep Helpline, he delivers hacks and tips for anyone looking to improve their sleep in 2026. … Got a trend you'd like to challenge Ollie to test out on a future edition of the show? Fill out the Feedback form on our website, or join our Discord. _____________ Elsewhere, down the Foxhole, Alix Fox is contemplating the surprising side-effects of ketamine, and discovering the demand for ‘creature cock' sex toys such as Lovehoney's ‘Swamp Monster'. How did this kink for fantasy dildos - kickstarted by niche brands like Bad Dragon and Gang Bankster - evolve into a mainstream, sold-out product category? Is it linked to zoophilia, ‘romatasy' books on TikTok, liberation from masturbatory stigma… or all of the above? As always, Alix has some (eye-opening) answers... _____________ Finally, in music corner, our Record of the Month brings a welcome return to the show for Cavetown, whose new single, "Sailboat (feat. chloe moriondo)", is out now. _____________ We'll be back with our Playback edition on 30th Jan, and something new on 10th February.
