Like liver, like failing. Your liver failing. Did you puke? No, it's not my stomach. We've been fishing hard for almost five straight weeks now, and I woke up this morning with an excruciating pain in my side. Um, it feels like when my appendix burst. I can hardly stand up. I think I need to go to the hospital.

Man, Jud, you seriously want to go to the hospital? Like seriously, go to the hospital? Like, is that like a serious thing? I can't. Like, talk. Are you good enough where we can drive you there?

I just know my organs aren't supposed to feel like this. I look at Drake and I can tell that he's not right. I want to keep fishing, but at the same time, I don't want to see Drake get seriously ill on the boat. It's my responsibility as Captain to make sure he's healthy. I don't have a choice right now. I guess I got to cut this trip short and take Drake in. Rather be safe than sorry.

Get him in. I don't want to see him get sick out here. Get him some medical attention. I don't know what this is going to mean for the rest of my season. One thing's for sure: everybody else is still out catching fish, and now we get Drake taken care of. Hopefully, Drake's better in a couple of days or so, or whatever, and we'll get back out fishing. If I got any hopes of catching them, I better figure something out fast.

Later, Drake.

Epic Grand Canyon Hike: A 750-Mile Challenge (Part 1) | National Geographic

I’m going to be honest. I’m not sure I really like hiking that much. With a heavy pack, no trail, and no guarantee of water, it’s hard, stressful, and very slow. Sure, hiking can lead to some zen-like moments, but not so much if you’re lost, really tired,…

[Instructor] In 1890, the United States was not exactly a major player on the world stage. It was an industrial behemoth, attracting immigrants from all over the world, but it was focused on its own internal growth, not foreign affairs. There was little i…

Comparative roles of women in Rome and Han China | World History | Khan Academy

I’m here with Iman L. Sheikh, Khan Academy’s World History fellow, and the question I have, Iman, is: history often focuses on men, but clearly women were playing a significant role. How much can we know about women, say, 2,000 years ago? When we talk ab…
