Tropic Thunder
Being prepared when boating in remote areas goes beyond your boat's sundries and spares. In the case of a true medical emergency, it can surpass the capabilities of those onboard and the nearest care centers. Anthony Marinello has decades of experience on elite helicopter rescue crews and, as you will hear, in areas ravaged by war and instability. He founded the subscription-based Tropic Air Rescue as the first and only private helicopter air ambulance in Bahamas. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

068 United States v. Harpole; United States v. Deremer
My freshman year of college, I spent a lot of time out of my dorm room. Which, given the size of the room I shared with two other women, was objectively the correct choice. My primary motivation for avoiding the room my parents lovingly and generously paid for was a roommate that was… very friendly… with members of the opposite sex.
