Title: "Reel Resilience: A Veterans’ Fishing Trip – Triumphs, Turmoil, and Cancellations
Welcome to Travelin Jones S1-E2, broadcasting unyielding grit from Earth’s edge! This episode unfolds a raw, true story of a veterans’ fishing trip on Capt. Will Osborne’s boat, sponsored by my unwavering friends Jason Larkin and Steven Keen of Blairsville, GA. Rated Bradenton’s best captain, Capt. Will guided us through turbulent waters when SSGT Dakota Anglin, a close military friend still serving today, had to withdraw at the last minute due to his child’s sudden family illness—an understandable heartbreak that left a void in our plans. I stepped in, per the spirit of the Corps, determined to honor veterans despite the setback.
Our journey hit rock bottom after I drove all night from Austin, hauling my studio equipment to an Airbnb in Florida, only to be ghosted by Buds for Vets, who canceled our long-form interview after weeks of planning—no show, no explanation, leaving me deflated. A Marine veteran, who sustained a spinal injury in Afghanistan and regained mobility through pioneering stem cell research, also had to cancel due to his wife’s illness, shattering my hopes for a powerful interview to anchor this episode. I felt defeated, questioning if I could pull this podcast off, but Jason and Steven refused to let me falter. Their sponsorship of Capt. Will’s boat, their encouragement, and their belief in me carried me across the finish line, turning failure into triumph.
Together, we fished The Gulf of America with Capt. Will’s unparalleled expertise—per his Bradenton Herald acclaim—honoring warriors’ resilience. This war-room tale echoes ‘Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat’—fortune favors the bold, thanks to Jason and Steven, whose friendship and support launched this podcast. Stay tuned for TJ S1-E4, where Capt. Will connected me with Capt. Jordan Miller, taking veterans fishing the next day—I joined his boat, conducting gripping interviews on the water while they reeled in catches, with Capt. Miller’s busy spirit leading the charge. Watch our video, join the mission, and celebrate veterans’ unbreakable spirit!”
