Trawler Talk Podcast

A sunny, medium shot of a smiling young man and woman posing on the bow deck of a boat with their large, fluffy golden doodle dog. The woman on the left wears a white t-shirt, brown shorts, and sunglasses while holding up a yellow triangular "AGLCA" burgee flag featuring a map graphic. The man stands behind her wearing a white t-shirt, brown shorts, a black baseball cap, and sunglasses while cradling the dog. In the top right corner, a round illustrated logo reads "TRAWLER TALK" around a captain's hat. The background shows a calm river or canal bordered by a shoreline with waterfront houses and palm trees under a blue sky.
