Ever wonder what you’ve got in common with people in other parts of the world? Just when you think someone in a far off place is nothing like you, if we talk to them and hear their story, we often find that their experiences, joys, and concerns are a lot like our own. Join Tim Pogo for Same Boat as he tells the stories of real people around the globe. We'll learn what they're dealing with as well as where they think everything will go from here. And typically we'll have plenty to laugh about, too. If you love human interest and getting a perspective of how others live and how it relates to you and your life, then you’re in the right spot.

For 40 years, Sylas had a secret. Only, even he didn't know it. When he finally did discover who he really is and the life that he wants to lead, he still had a difficult time convincing himself to believe it. And that made it even harder to share his secret with others. Having been assigned female at birth, Sylas identifies as male. He tells us about his journey and the struggles he encountered becoming the person he wanted to be. In this episode, we travel to Puerto Rico for a story of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and being respected by your loved ones, your community, and society.…

But this time, as we dig deeper into that country's general state of tolerance and equality, as well as the actions being taken by Icelanders in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement. To accomplish this, we speak with Jewells, an African American living full time in Iceland. Her insight and story of her experiences as a person of color in a predominantly white country further point out how the tiny country can teach us all things about being anti-racist.…

What can we learn about racism and equality from a tiny country with barely any diversity in its population? We speak with Sveinn, a jazz vocalist and musician in Iceland, who works as a quality control manager for a whale watching company. As Iceland re-opens to foreign visitors, we learn how their attitude toward limiting the coronavirus is in line with how they demand equality in their society. Sveinn describes his experience in the LGBTQ community, and Iceland's motivation in the backdrop of Black Lives Matter and the global movement against racism to tackle the task at hand of ridding their own prejudices.…

Charlie and his girlfriend had a difficult decision to make when coronavirus lockdowns went into effect. As Paris residents, they knew that confinement in their tiny apartment with their two young girls wouldn't just be a bit cramped, but they'd be competing with thousands of their neighbors for the limited supply of food and supplies available in their immediate neighborhood. Not to mention, the no-tolerance strict shelter in place rules in place for all French citizens. Their story takes them from place to place on a journey across France, searching for the best place to wait out the crisis. But, as we'll learn, even now their story hasn't yet got an official end.…
