Ethan and G-Pop

"I have a pretty young grandfather, but he was starting to get old and knew he had one or two more big expeditions in him," says Ethan Roebuck. "He wanted to put together a big trip, because he's getting older, but also because I'm getting older, these are skills that he thinks are important, and he wants to make sure I have them too--a handing off of the baton, I suppose." So when Ethan's grandfather proposed that they go on a two-month, five-hundred mile, tandem kayaking expedition along the Canadian coast the summer before Ethan's senior year of high school, Ethan was onboard. Producer Cordelia Zars brings you the story of a wild adventure, a passing of the torch, and the special bond that emerges and evades the constraints of words.
