In this episode, I share a painful lesson I learned first hand: What happens when you don't properly protect your skin from the sun. After a fishing trip turned into a medical nightmare, I developed sun poisoning and second-degree burns on my lips. We'll talk about what sun poisoning actually is, why your lips are especially at risk, and how you can prevent serious sun damage using SPF lip balm, sun-protective clothing, and smarter habits.

Also, check out episode 40, "What's That Spot?", where I talk with fishing guide Thatcher Haggberg about the different types of skin cancer caused by sun exposure.
