A Few Notes…
- The written Fair Winds and Following Seas blog retains precedence over the podcast.
- Only certain blog posts will receive a podcast episode. This is due to the fact that some blog posts are simply better suited for a reading format owing to the topic, use of illustrations, photos, etc.
- Specific blog posts that do receive a podcast episode will always remain available in their original format (i.e. as a written blog post) for you to enjoy. Blog posts with podcast episodes will have a link at the top of the posts to the podcast episode.
In summation, the Salt Water Coffee podcast will feature certain posts I’ve written for this blog, as well as more informal and unrelated material.

What is the Down Periscope, Up Periscope Podcast?
Down Periscope, Up Periscope: Tales of Submarine Tours is the unofficial podcast of the tour guides on USS Blueback (SS-581). Blueback was the last diesel-electric attack submarine in the U.S. Navy and is currently a museum ship at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) in Portland, OR. Irreverent, salty, sarcastic, and occasionally serious, not only does this podcast cover the incredible, hilarious, strange, annoying, and occasionally frustrating tours we’ve led, but also the technology of the Blueback herself, submarine history, and the sea experiences of the Blueback tour guides who are veterans of the U.S. Navy’s submarine service.
A Few Notes…
- The written Fair Winds and Following Seas blog retains precedence over the podcast.
- Any blog posts or podcast episodes specifically related to USS Blueback, as well as anything submarine-related (technology/history/etc.) will now be under the Down Periscope, Up Periscope podcast banner.
