Episode 88 George Pagano

George Pagano did something that few others have ever been able to do. In 2015, George rowed across the Atlantic Ocean, along with his rowing partner Caitlin Miller as part of the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge. He did it all to raise money to fight ALS in memory of his grandfather. In this podcast, George talks about the preparation for his journey, the help he got along the way, and how being on the open water got him closer to the ALS cause.
