On the Outside Looking In - Ready or Not, Here We Come
Welcome to Episode III of Sailing Infidels: Looking In from the Outside. This is the tale of the Sailing Infidels and how the COVID-19 lockdowns impacted us, even in the remote and secluded paradise that protected us so well. While the world around us was grappling with the challenges of lockdowns after only a few weeks, by that time, we had already been isolated from society at large for nearly eight months. At the onset of the pandemic, we believed our oasis to be the safest haven imaginable. However, little did we know that it had an expiration date.

On the Outside Looking In - A Collaboration with AI
While the world was plunged into the COVID-19 drama, the Sailing Infidels watched in horror from their paradisiacal prison. Welcome to our podcast. While many thought that we were in the safest place on Earth, no one, including us, would realize the effect of what that two year isolation and the inevitable return to society would be. In this podcast, written with help from AI and narrated by some "Guy" on Speechify.com (http://Speechify.com) we endeavour to relate the our experiences, both good and bad. Where possible we will incorporate audio taken from recorded videos.
