We’re back for the final episode of season two with Dr Jo Stanley, a creative historian and expert on LGBT+ maritime history and an Honorary Research Fellow at Blaydes Maritime Centre, University of Hull. In this episode we talk with Jo about the history of LGBT+ individuals, particularly gay men, in the British Merchant Navy during the mid-20th century. We discuss how the environment onboard ships allowed for a more open exploration of sexuality and identity, with many gay men finding a sense of liberation and acceptance at sea.

We’re back for another episode and this month we’re speaking with Jacqueline Smith, the maritime coordinator for the International Transport Workers' Federation. In this podcast we discuss the concept of Flags of Convenience (FOCs) in the maritime industry. Why the ITF is calling for a global review of ship registration practices and a clearer definition of a "genuine link" between a ship and its flag state. We also discuss the lack of enforcement of these regulations by FOC countries, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic.

We’re back for another episode and this month we’re speaking with Lungi Mchunu, yacht skipper and the first African woman to sail to the Arctic. Lungi is also a yachtmaster graduate of the Nautilus strategic yacht partner and training charity, UKSA, and has worked in yachting, cruise and racing. We speak with her about her fear of the sea, how she overcame it, and her experiences of the arctic. With thanks to Lloyd's Maritime Academy for sponsoring this episode.
