Words with Wesley

Join Blossom and me for an insightful discussion about growing as leaders. We related our experiences with good and bad leaders and how to remain open-minded in leadership positions.

In this second episode with LT Armstrong, we talk about MMA culture, an injury he had while shipping and the wild story with that, and finally, some advice for young adults. I hope you enjoy this episode, I know I did!

Professor Boal and I talk about his Navy career, emergency medicine (of course!), and some of his adventures in Maine. We take a hard look at the Med Care and PIC classes and what makes them so unique here at MMA!

MMA President Jerry Paul talked with me in this episode. It was an honor to have him on the show and talk about his experiences, vision for MMA, and what he calls the "MMA Experience." I hope you enjoy and learn from this insightful episode!

My former roommate and I talk about engineering, life at MMA, and some of the awesome things Maine has to offer! We take a deep dive into power engineering and networking with Andy!

Irish music, computers, and adversity! Today I had the pleasure of talking with one of the Napper Tandies - don't know what that is? Listen and find out!

Professor Scheuchzer and I have the second half of our conversation about life advice, leadership, and salaries! I hope you enjoy this deep look into MMA and the business world!

Professor Scheuchzer and I talked about it all, including pirates, because don't all good stories involve pirates? This is the first part of our conversation - where we discussed an overview of her career. This included pirates, shipping, technical consulting, cadet shipping and 9/11, and finally, her work with the Maine Port Authority. Tune in next week for the second part!

Kelly and I talk about education, Billy Joel, and student life. Starring Kodak, the dog, as our special guest! *My apologies, as my quest for a studio is ongoing, we had some issues with feedback in this one. Please forgive the imperfection, but this conversation was worth getting out there.*

A high-energy episode! Fellow IBL student Brooke Foley and I discuss community and public service, her burgeoning career in law enforcement, and why you should always bring cookies when meeting new people. Enjoy!

Colonel (Oberst) Hans Von Luck wrote about his lessons fighting the French, Russians, and Logistics in his memoir, Panzer Commander.  The German situation in World War II is a study of the failures of a modern army when you study their logistics.  This might become a history podcast...

Cole talks about football at MMA, life advice, and the maritime industry.  We have some unique insight into OSG and cadet shipping on a tanker, as well as being a Navy midshipman.

Good afternoon, everyone!  In this episode, I talk with Elizabeth Allaby, one of the admissions counselors, to see what's going on with our Open House on April 2nd, starting at 8:00 AM.

In which Maryrose (soon to host her own show) and I discuss lifting, how many chin-ups I can do, pollution, and some of the highlights of MMA.

Hello!  Thank you for listening to the first show from Maine Maritime Academy's podcast!  We hope to cover a variety of topics, so stay tuned!  If you have suggestions, please contact me, Wesley, at admissions@mma.edu!
