1
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: Hey bear, Welcome to Growing Up with Emily, a lingo

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: kids podcast. It helps kids discover how to be whatever

3
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: they want to be growing up.

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 2: Well below up.

5
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 3: The side.

6
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 4: Almost got it and they're all finished.

7
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 5: What are you working on, Winston?

8
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: Almost done with your research on what it's like to

9
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 1: be a sailor?

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 6: Uh?

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, kind of, Emily, Okay, come on check out what

12
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 2: I made?

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 5: Oooh is that a toy boat made out of newspaper?

14
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 2: Yep?

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 4: I saw a really neat video online about how to

16
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 4: make a boat you can race when it's raining outside.

17
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: So look, I folded the newspaper into this boat chair

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: and even coated it in wax from the workroom so

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 2: I won't get wet. Pretty cool.

20
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: Huh wooh, that actually is pretty inventive, Winston. Maybe we

21
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: can go out and race it, leader, But we've still

22
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: got to figure out more about the job sailors do.

23
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 4: I actually did read something neat about sailors. Even though

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 4: they used to be called sailors. Now anyone who works

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 4: on any type of boat is called a sailor, even

26
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 4: if the ship doesn't have sails at all.

27
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: Ah, Because a lot of bigger ships use engines and propellers.

28
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 5: Nowadays.

29
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: Well, what's your favorite kind of sailor that you've come

30
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: across so far?

31
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: Oh that's a tough one.

32
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 4: I'm not one hundred percent sure yet, but I did

33
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 4: just listen to an interview that was pretty awesome. It's

34
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 4: with this guy who's been a professional sailor for years

35
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 4: and he raced the sailboats across the ocean. I didn't

36
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 4: even know sailboat racing was a thing, but that's what

37
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 4: gave me the idea to make a boat myself. Today,

38
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 4: now you can call me Captain Winston. Hey, do you

39
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,040
Speaker 4: want to hear the interview while the wax drip.

40
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 5: On my boat got a beak rate?

41
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go.

42
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 3: My name is Charlie Enright and I am the skipper

43
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 3: of the Eleventh Hour Racing Team. I grew up in

44
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 3: Rhode Island. My grandfather was a boat builder when I

45
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: was young, when I was just kind of roaming around

46
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 3: the boat shed and figuring it all out for myself.

47
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 4: Charlie started sailing for fun with his family and they're

48
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 4: against a bay in his home state.

49
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: I guess a lot of people like to sail in

50
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 2: Rhode Island and want to know what happened after.

51
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 5: Dynamily, what's that Winson.

52
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 4: Charlie decided to start sailing every week, well when he

53
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 4: wasn't in school, I guess, And then one day he

54
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 4: signed up for his very first competition, and that's when

55
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 4: he realized it was really something he'd love to do

56
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 4: all the time.

57
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 3: I caught the bug and I just always wanted to

58
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 3: do the next best thing and found a bit of

59
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: success along the way. And the pinnacle of ocean racing

60
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 3: is the Ocean Race, formerly the Volvo Ocean Race, and

61
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: before that the Whipbread around the World Race, and it

62
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: became a very natural thing for me to aspire to do,

63
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: and I just really never looked back.

64
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: So Charlie was able to turn his sailing hobby into

65
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: a job where he could compete and win prize money.

66
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: So there's a lot of different types of sailing. Ocean

67
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: racing is sailing that goes long distances over the horizon,

68
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 3: and that means sailing the boat twenty four hours a day,

69
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: seven days a week against some number of competitors. And

70
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 3: the pinnacle event for that is the Ocean Race, and

71
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 3: that race takes six months and it travels forty thousand

72
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: miles and it stops in ten different locations around the world.

73
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: So we start the race in Spain, and then we

74
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 3: go to the small island nation of Cabo Verde, and

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 3: then we go to Cape Town, South Africa, E'tajai, Brazil, Newport,

76
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: Rhode Island, Afus, Denmark, the Hague, and the Netherlands and Genoa, Italy.

77
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: What and experience. Wow.

78
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: I can't imagine being on a boat for six months

79
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: and traveling forty thousand miles. That's like circling around the

80
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: Earth's equator twice.

81
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: That is crazy long.

82
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 4: But getting to sail to all those different parts of

83
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: the world would be amazing, don't you think, Emily.

84
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, there aren't many other jobs that let you travel

85
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: so much. I think we need an upclose and personal

86
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: look at what the life of a sailor is really like. Huh,

87
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: hold on to your tablet and close your eyes. Winson,

88
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: here we go.

89
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: Well where are we, Emily?

90
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: If my magic snap is as precise as I think

91
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: it is, We're on a racing boat somewhere between the

92
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: West coast of America and Hawaii out in the Pacific Ocean.

93
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: The Specific Ocean. Wow, I'm glad it's so precise, otherwise

94
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 2: we'd be floating out in the water. Boys, is it

95
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 2: chopping in the storm?

96
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: Maybe we should go below deck so we can hear

97
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: each other a little bit better.

98
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 4: Huh hey, maybe we should gone below decks so we

99
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 4: can hear each other better.

100
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: Come on, follow me down.

101
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 5: Into the cabin.

102
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: Whoa gosh, sorry about that, Winson. I knew I was

103
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: snapping us onto a racing sailboat, but I didn't know

104
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: we'd be in the middle of a storm.

105
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 5: Are you okay?

106
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm all right. I just hope my tablet

107
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: still works after getting a bit what.

108
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: Though, boohoo, careful not to lose your balanced Winston. Boats

109
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 1: like these often pitch from side to side in a storm.

110
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: Let's sit down over here near the galleyesh.

111
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: I sure, hope the captain knows what they're doing.

112
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 5: We'll be fine.

113
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,799
Speaker 1: This is a pretty modern sailboat, and they're usually safe

114
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: if they've got a crew who knows how to operate them.

115
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 4: I just can't imagine what the earliest ships and boats

116
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 4: were like, or what it must have been like to

117
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 4: sail around the world back then.

118
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: The first people that sailed around the world or tried

119
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,679
Speaker 3: to sail around the world left the dock not even

120
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 3: knowing where they were going. It was totally based on

121
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 3: exploration and trying to discover the unknown. People used to

122
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 3: think the earth was flat and that people could sail

123
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 3: right off the edge of it.

124
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: Wait, people used to think the world was flat.

125
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, isn't that bizarre?

126
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 1: We know that isn't the case now, largely thanks to

127
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: the first person who made it possible to sail all

128
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: the way around the world, a man named Ferdinand Magellan.

129
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: Ferdinand worked for the King of Spain, and so the

130
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: king asked Ferdinand to go and find him some delicious

131
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: cooking spices on the other side of the world in

132
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: a place called the Spice Islands in fifteen nineteen, over.

133
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 5: Five hundred years ago.

134
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: No one had ever attempted to travel so far by sea,

135
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 1: but Magellan wasn't afraid. He set out with five ships

136
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: and a whole crew of sailors to help him out.

137
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 4: Did Magellan and the sailors make it to the Spice

138
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,239
Speaker 4: Islands safely?

139
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: They did, And not only that, but some of Magellan's

140
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: crew and his ships.

141
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 5: Ended up going all the way around the whole world

142
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 5: for the first time ever.

143
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: They made it back to Spain almost three years after

144
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: they departed.

145
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 2: Wow, three years.

146
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 4: So early sailors were like some of the world's first

147
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 4: explorers too.

148
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 5: They truly were Winson.

149
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 4: So it seems like sailing has helped humans learn a

150
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 4: lot about our planet and each other. You know, I

151
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 4: always thought it was just about the boatloads of fun.

152
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 5: Are you having fun on this boat?

153
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 3: Winston?

154
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: Yeah?

155
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: I mean this is pretty cool. I've never been on

156
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 2: a sailboat like this. Het. Who are those guys?

157
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 5: Oh, they're part of the crew.

158
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: They're probably switching ships so that people who are up

159
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: on top can come out of the rain for a bit.

160
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 5: Should we try some more of Charlie's interview?

161
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 2: Sure? I want to know more about what it's like

162
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 2: to be a sailor.

163
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: One of the things I like most about my job

164
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 3: is that every single day is different, but in some

165
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: ways they're very the same. So we live in a

166
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,559
Speaker 3: four hour watch system where basically we sailed the boat

167
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 3: for four hours at a time and then we're below

168
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 3: decks for another four hours. All the things that you'd

169
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 3: have to do if you were a human living on land.

170
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 3: We have to eat, we have to clean ourselves, we

171
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: have to sleep, we have to do all the other

172
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 3: things associated with being on a boat though too. We

173
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 3: have to navigate, you keep the boat running, we have

174
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 3: to charge the batteries. But what's different is the weather,

175
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: depending upon where we are in the world. Sometimes it's

176
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 3: really windy. Sometimes we have seventy miles an hour or

177
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 3: the wind which is almost hurricane force, and sometimes we

178
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 3: have no wind and we're just drifting around.

179
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 4: Wow, living and working on a boat and must really

180
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 4: be different than living and working on the land. I mean,

181
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 4: how did they even take a bath? Do they just

182
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 4: dunk themselves into the ocean once.

183
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: A day, not if the weather's too cold, like Charlie said,

184
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: Sometimes that happens, and most of these boats have at

185
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: least a small bathroom with a shower and toiling depending

186
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: on the size. But if it's a racing boat like Charlie's,

187
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 1: you definitely don't have some of the fun things that

188
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: giant cruise ships have. Sailboat racers want their boats to

189
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: be as light as possible so that they can speed

190
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: faster over the water. They're more focused on getting to

191
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,359
Speaker 1: the finish line than being comfortable.

192
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 4: It doesn't seem like there's ever a dull moment in

193
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 4: the life of a sailboat racer.

194
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: You just never know what the sea is going to

195
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: throw at you on any given day.

196
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 5: Can you push play again please?

197
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 3: Of course, we have a skipper, that's me. I'm kind

198
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 3: of the boss. I'm in charge of the safety but

199
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 3: also ultimately the result. We have a navigator as well,

200
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 3: who's in charge of looking at the maps and making

201
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 3: sure we don't get lost. And then we have a

202
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 3: couple other sailors who are dedicated to speed and performance.

203
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 4: Uh oh, Emily, it doesn't feel like we're moving that

204
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 4: much anymore, does it.

205
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: They must have lowered the sails so that they don't

206
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: get torn up in the storm, but don't worry, they'll

207
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: put them back up once it passes to keep moving.

208
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 2: Wait, this boat can only move with sails.

209
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: That's part of the rules of sailboat racing. What's crazy

210
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: is the earliest vessels didn't use sails at all.

211
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 2: The earliest vessels boats.

212
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: Yes, humans began using boats and rafts to go from

213
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: island to island a long time ago, especially off the

214
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: coast of Australia, and this all started almost fifty thousand

215
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: years ago, according to some experts.

216
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 4: Whoa so people have been sailing the seas for a

217
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 4: long time.

218
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: Not sailing, just using boats and rafts with paddles or oars.

219
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: To get around. People had to use their own body

220
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: energy to row and move the boats through the water.

221
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: Sails came along many years later and made.

222
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 5: It much easier to travel.

223
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: After that, it was, as they say, smooth sailing.

224
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 2: Hmmm.

225
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 4: But what if you were out in the ocean and

226
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 4: your sales got ripped or torn by a storm?

227
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 2: Would you just get stuck?

228
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: Usually people had spare sails stored somewhere in the hall

229
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: or body of the ship, but it did sometimes happen

230
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: that people would get stranded.

231
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 4: You know, in the caption of Charlie's video it said

232
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 4: he almost got stranded a few years ago.

233
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: Listen to this.

234
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: Before we get there, I want to take a quick

235
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 1: minute to tell you and our listeners about Lingo Kids.

236
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: You know how I start every episode by saying that

237
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: it's a Lingo Kids podcast. Well, Lingo Kids is the

238
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: number one learning app for kids. They believe that learning

239
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: can be fun and I think so too. They transform

240
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: screen time with educational and interactive games, videos and.

241
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 5: Songs, and you can play all these on their app.

242
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 5: What do you think, Winston, what do I think?

243
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: Sign me up?

244
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 5: Pretty cool? Right? Oh, we're here.

245
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 3: So I've raced around the world three times now, and

246
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 3: the second time we did it, we experienced some serious misfortune.

247
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 3: While we're sailing around the world, we go to some

248
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 3: pretty remote locations, one of which is Point Nemo, which

249
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 3: is the farthest you can possibly get from land on Earth.

250
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 3: After passing Point Nemo and getting around Cape Wurn and

251
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 3: my second lap around the world, the mast of our

252
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 3: boat broke and it fell down into the ocean. We're

253
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 3: a crew of nine, and the question quickly became what

254
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 3: do we do now? And we were fortunate enough to

255
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 3: only be about one hundred and fifty miles from the

256
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 3: Falkland Islands, which is where we took refuge and reset

257
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 3: before we were eventually able to get back to continental

258
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: South America, repair the boat, and rejoin the race. But

259
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 3: it wasn't easy, that's for sure. But it's in situations

260
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 3: like those that you really learn what your team is

261
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 3: made of. And sometimes desperation can be a source of

262
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 3: big innovation and resilience. So definitely a lot of lessons

263
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 3: to be learned when things don't go your.

264
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 4: Way well I'm glad Charlene and his career able to

265
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 4: use the engine and make it home to the island safely.

266
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,119
Speaker 1: Me too, and he and his crew stayed calm and collected,

267
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 1: and they knew what they had to do to get

268
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: back to land.

269
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 4: Hey, the storm is passed and the sea breeze feels

270
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 4: so fresh and clean.

271
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: And look the sailors are adjusting the sales to catch

272
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: the wind. I bet we'll be serving across the water

273
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: in no time.

274
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: You know.

275
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 4: I wonder what made Charlie want to start sailing? Emily,

276
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 4: should we check in while we wait for the boat.

277
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 5: To start moving, good idea, Let's listen in.

278
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 3: I got into this because of my grandfather, but have

279
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 3: been able to do it probably because of my parents

280
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 3: and them really allowing me to kind of chart my

281
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: own course and never putting any external pressure on me

282
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 3: to do any one particular thing. So I've always just

283
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 3: kind of followed my passion and followed my heart and

284
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 3: my ambition. And I don't have a job like a

285
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 3: lot of other people, but I never let that deter

286
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 3: me from trying to achieve it. The first time I raced,

287
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: I was probably nine years old and just the sensation

288
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 3: of competition really took over, and that's kind of what's

289
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 3: fueled me for the last thirty years. I actually got

290
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 3: the chance to watch my son race for the first time,

291
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 3: and watching him win his first race and as a

292
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 3: seven year old was pretty special for me. But I

293
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 3: think because of what I do, I'm very conscious of

294
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,839
Speaker 3: not putting any pressure on him to follow in my footsteps,

295
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 3: but more to do what he wants to do, and

296
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 3: the fact that he derives pleasure from it is great

297
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 3: for me to see.

298
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 4: You know, it's pretty great that sailing is something that

299
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 4: all of Charlie's family can enjoy together, first his grandpa,

300
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 4: than him, and now.

301
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: His own son too. Whoa, those sales caught the winds

302
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: so quickly.

303
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 4: Look it how fast we're moving, Emily, and with no

304
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 4: engine running at all.

305
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: This is awesome. I want to feel like this every day. Emily. Hey,

306
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: you know what, I just realize.

307
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 5: What's that Winston, I didn't put a.

308
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: Sail on my toy boat. I bet it would go

309
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 4: much faster if I that one.

310
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 5: You're right it would. Should we head back to the

311
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 5: lab so you can fix it up?

312
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely?

313
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 5: Let's do it, alrighty, let's go.

314
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: Well, that's all the time we have on this week's episode.

315
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: Thanks so much for coming along with us to tune

316
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: into the fascinating history of sailors and what it's like

317
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: to be a sailor today. I hope you get a

318
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: chance to try and sailing one day for yourself.

319
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 5: See you next time.
