Welcome! As Mental Health Awareness Month draws to a close, the team called Kenny and Ryan to pinch hit with Nick and a special guest, CAPT Patrick Dill. CAPT Dill has been spearheading a campaign to better track and take care of Coasties from all communities, even the ones who float on boats.

If you're at WAI, go find Miranda (our IG Guru), she is currently hosting the show down in Orlando!
P.S. Sam's feet are cold from all the amazing skiing he's been doing in Europe so we think he's heading back to the states soon
