My Dad's War: 1940-1945 - Barn McDevitt In this episode of Write Your Story, Angela is joined once again by Barn McDevitt, who shares the remarkable story of his father, John Francis McDevitt, and his experiences during World War II. Pieced together through family memories, military records, letters and years of research, Barn traces his father's journey from New Zealand to North Africa, his capture and years as a prisoner of war, a daring escape attempt, and the gruelling Long March during the final months of the war. Barn also reflects on the importance of preserving the stories previous generations may not have told themselves, and how family research can bring those experiences back to life.

Cruising: The Adventure You Didn't Expect In this episode, we dive into the world of cruising with Joseph O’Sullivan and discover that cruising is about so much more than relaxing on a ship. We explore what cruising really means today, from classic ocean voyages and unforgettable adventures to expedition cruising and journeys into some of the most remote and extraordinary places on Earth — places where, in many cases, a ship is one of the only ways to get there.
