Summary

Investigative journalist Ian Urbina had a bold plan: he would journey to the unpatrolled waters of the open ocean and bring back stories about the last regions on the planet where laws have almost no power. Over three years, he traveled some 12,000 nautical miles and reported on the traffickers, pirates, poachers, and other clandestine characters who operate outside the reach of authorities. His resulting chronicle became a bestselling book, The Outlaw Ocean, but that only spurred Urbina to go farther. Now his mission is taking him in a surprisingly creative direction: partnering with popular musical artists, he's producing songs that push his stories out to a much wider audience. This episode of the Outside Podcast is brought to you by the all-new 2021 Ford Bronco Sport, a 4x4 SUV with seven available G.O.A.T. modes that enable it to go over any type of terrain.

0:00.0	This episode of the outside podcast is brought to you by the 2021 all-new Ford Bronco
0:06.0	Sport, a four by four SUV with seven available goat modes that enable it to go
0:11.5	over any type of terrain. But some of the most impressive elements are in the
0:16.4	interior. My full name is Carrie Cannerley and I'm a color materials designer at Ford
0:22.2	Motor Company. I've been here forever. For Carrie, working on the Bronco Sport was
0:27.8	a passion project. The chance to bring to life a legendary vehicle for a new
0:33.2	generation. I'm born and raised and to try to miss
0:36.4	again so automotive has always been in my family. Okay, so you are like true blue.
0:42.2	Yes, yeah. Members of Carrie's team went to great lengths to research design elements
0:49.2	camping out with off-road enthusiasts and interviewing the kind of people that
0:54.0	demand the most from their SUVs. The result are features like the available
0:58.4	moly straps for securing gear, a concept that was inspired by high-end
1:03.0	backpacks, hiking boots and technical jackets. A guy that was a photographer. He
1:08.4	loved the idea of the moly straps on the seat back because he said he could
1:11.6	put his camera inside and then he could connect his lenses with just the hooks.
1:17.5	But simply attaching straps to standard fabric on the back of the seat backs
1:21.9	would never do. So the fabric that is behind the moly straps is actually a
1:26.9	police-grade fabric that we put in police vehicles. Climb inside the Bronco Sport
1:31.8	and you'll find a range of rugged features like a safari style roof and liftgate
1:37.0	flood lamps for easier base camp set up. Learn more at Ford.com slash Bronco.
