Maroon - to leave someone trapped and isolated in an inaccessible place, especially an island. Admittedly, stories that closely fit that definition are more difficult to come by than we originally thought. This episode, however, fits the bill. Resources: Book ~ Fleming, Gregory N.

To be stranded anywhere - Marooned - sucks. It’s going to be uncomfortable. You’re going to have to find a way to get through it, until rescue. Usually that means finding shelter, eating bugs, and drinking urine. You know the deal. But for astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Wilmore it will mean an extended stay in the place they've always longed to be. Outer Space. Bonnie Pandya's book is Little Tail, Big Tales and can be found wherever you buy books. Aaron's books are Peek A Boop and Wag A Boop and are on Amazon. >>Please subscribe to Marooned and leave us a review. Find our website at visitmarooned.com | Thank you, Jack & Aaron.

The Jungle looks like a pretty fun place in cartoons. Appears to be a hot spot for adventure in the movies. Juliane Koepcke, a teenager at the time of this story, knew the adventure part. She, unlike most German teenagers, had spent time in the jungle. Not enough to master its secrets to survival, but apparently just enough to give it a problem killing her... after the plane crash failed to do it.

On top of the world. You’d think you’d be jubilant. But at the peak of Mount Everest there’s little energy to celebrate. You’ve got about 20 minutes to enjoy the view, to take in your enormous accomplishment - before it’s time to go. You’re dying. You’re at high risk of cerebral edema. Brain swelling. It’s a grand achievement but you must go back down. You can’t let it get to your head. Or you will die. In the Death Zone. Please give us likes and reviews in your favorite podcast apps.

What could be worse than becoming lost at sea?. Without a boat. Drifting with the current… What could be worse?Hanging on to half a dozen other unfortunate souls, some wailing that they can’t hang on for much longer… Sharks swimming below… no thanks. But then an island pops up. And you feel the heat of its sand beneath you by morning. What could be better? Fresh water for sure. Hey… maybe that Komodo dragon over there knows where to find some….

Why would she wear a skirt with no underwear if she had diarrhea???
As someone who grew up in Utah and knowing where Nutty is at and I have been to the caves a few times years ago, it was actually fun as hell but it could be so damn dangerous as this story about John will tell you. I remember hearing about the rescue attempt going on and the outcome afterwards. I think I didn't go near any caves after this.
I wasn’t a big fan of you waisting your talents with a partner, DT - is better than 90% of true crime out there, but this Marooned has grown on me. 🤩👍
Spectacular episode! Much humor built into this incredible story as well
this is the meal I love to eat, I don't eat crap. script or not, of course these podcasts OBIVIOUSLY don't just stream of consciousness tell these stories with all the dates and details. I challenge someone, anyone to do that.
Everything Jack Luna puts out is great!
Great stuff and nice chemistry. That poor woman
