After my 2012 Thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail, my life was changed forever. The challenge of big adventure had me hooked. I soon set a goal of sailing alone and without stopping around the world. In 2017-18, I did just that! Since then, I have taken my podcast aboard my Westsail32 as well as in my everyday life. The shows are a mix of my own past experiences along with interviews of everyday people that have a seemingly endless number of stories themselves.

EP#253 Comedy and Sailing with James Hodge
Today I have the pleasure of sitting down with fellow Westsail 32 owner James Hodge. James is a writer and comedian as well as a new Westsail owner. He's in the same yard and working like a madman to get his boat ready for the ocean. We have a blast chatting about everything from being on the water to being on stage. Big thanks to James for coming on the show for a second time.

Customer Reviews
Inspiration Adventure = Jerome Rand!
Good thing that this pod comes out weekly (sometimes 2x a week!) as I can’t go too long without a good dose of the ol’ Jerome and his Sailing Into Oblivion pod! Jerome’s laid-back, easy-going, and jovial manner make him such a fantastic host — yet, what I most appreciate about Jerome is not just his ability to spin such an amazing yarn, but that he is 1000% incredibly open and honest about his life’s journey — bearing his soul, sharing not just the ‘wins,’ but the heartaches and challenges that life throws at him as well. That’s what makes me keep coming back, again and again, to this pod — to keep hearing how Jerome’s story continues to evolve; to grasp the valuable insight he shares from encountering so many life experiences. Love this one to the moon and back — definitely one of my most fav pods, hands-down! ~ Chelle of passagesfromtheheart
What kind of boat?
love listening to your podcast lots of knowledge and great stories, my question would be I live in Iowa close to a decent size lake and recently got in the sailing wondering what you think would be the best boat that I could learn up here in Iowa pull down to Florida and sail into the Bahamas?
I know that’s a very broad question but wondering maybe something under 30,000 and around 30 foot if you have any ideas that would be much appreciated!!
Consistently interesting
I had the good fortune to spend a weatherbound week in Ocean City with Jerome as my slip-neighbor, and in the year and a half since, I’ve been hooked on living vicariously through his podcast!
