Back from the long break with a special episode! My father is one of the most interesting people I know. Among other things, he’s a Vietnam War veteran, helicopter pilot, sailboat captain, non-fiction book author, artist, designer, boat builder… the list goes on. During his recent visit to Lisbon, I had the chance to ask him some questions about life, career, and some eventful moments in his 76 year (and counting) run on the planet.
