Connected on the river back in the 90s, a pair of old retired river men join me to catch up on life these days and reminisce about their careers and the days long ago. From meeting at Kinder's Restaurant with Adrian Hargrove and Popeye to sitting across the aisle from one another in court, their careers ran in tandem over the years. Ol' Sam takes over the interview in stride and I settle comfortably into their meandering trips downriver as we float through the decades with them. We hear about legal proceedings with which they were both involved, safety and the expectations of deck crew, and a disconnect evident in the crews of today relative to the standards of the past. We'll probably do this again sometime.
