Description
DeckTales plunges you into the unbelievable reality of crew life! Join former cruise ship entertainer Sammy Catling as he collects the wildest, most hilarious sea stories from those who work on cruise ships, naval vessels, ferries and beyond. Ever wonder about the true secrets of ship life? We go beyond the brochures to expose the raw crew life and hidden corners of a maritime career. Hear from every kind of seafarer about the best, and often strangest, parts of cruise life and life at sea. This is the unfiltered, laugh-out-loud truth, but doesn’t shy away from the murkier depths of reality.
Inspired to start the podcast after the launch of his comedic memoir, Seems Like Smooth Sailing, Sam realised a simple truth: the people who live and breathe this industry have the best stories. The book covered the chaos, but Deck Tales seeks clarity! Subscribe now and prepare to be entertained by tales that truly prove things are rarely smooth sailing.
