Usual Drivel - Haunted House pre-amble

It's the Specialist Guest section and David & Joe welcome sailor Tracy Edwards MBE onto the Chatabus (after David get's himself comfortable). In 1989 Tracy skippered the first all female crew in the Whitbread Round The World Yacht Race on her boat The Maiden. David makes the most of this opportunity by asking Tracy if she's ever seen a big whale. Tracy regales them with tales of her misspent youth and how she got into sailing. Tracy says 'At 26 years old I captained the yacht ‘Maiden’, with the first all-female crew to ever sail around the world. We were told we couldn’t do it, but we showed how sailing is a level playing field. Now, I’m making it my mission to advocate for girls’ education around the world.” The Maiden Factor Foundation works with communities to enable girls into education and empower and support them to remain throughout their teenage years to reach their full potential and create better futures for all. https://www.themaidenfactor.org/ Follow Chatabix on Twitter & Instagram: twitter.com/chatabix1 www.instagram.com/chatabixpodcast/ Patreon for early access to our eps: https://www.patreon.com/chatabix Crunchy fresh tees and hoodies: https://chatabixshop.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
