What is it like to cook on a Navy submarine… and later cook inside a federal prison?

Aaron shares stories from life on submarines, the chaos of cooking for hundreds of sailors underwater, and the surprising psychology behind running a prison kitchen.
One of his biggest lessons comes down to a single word.
Respect.
As Aaron explains, when you’re working with inmates serving life sentences, respect isn’t optional. It’s survival.
We talk about:
• Cooking meals on submarines running 24 hours a day
• What it’s like feeding hundreds of prisoners
• The real psychology of working inside prisons
• Why respect is the most important skill in law enforcement
• How inmates mentor younger prisoners from inside the system
• Lessons from 30 years of government service
This conversation pulls back the curtain on a career most people never see.
If you’re curious about extraordinary jobs and the stories behind them, you’re in the right place.
