A NEW EPISODE EVERY THURSDAY… MOST OF THE TIME!
The Osborne Adventure Podcast is a raw and honest look at family, purpose, adventure, and the road to an extraordinary life. Follow our journey as we prepare for and eventually set sail on a global family expedition to raise awareness for Down syndrome.
Along the way, we share the realities of parenting, the mess and meaning of family life, the challenges of chasing a big dream, and the beauty of raising a child with Down syndrome.
Whether you're a sailor, a parent, part of the disability community, or simply someone who wants more out of life, we hope these conversations leave you encouraged, inspired, and ready for adventure.

The 25/8 Interview - No Privacy Here – EP. 53
On this episode of the Osborne Adventure Podcast, we sit down with Maegan Calcutt, who flew to British Columbia to interview for the role of Ren’s Direct Support Professional (DSP). But this isn’t your average interview, it’s messy, chaotic, and quickly becomes clear that this job is really 25/8 with no privacy, no clocking out, and no escape.
From crab pots dumping open on her feet to the blunt reality of life on a boat with kids, Ren, and a crew that never stops moving, Maegan shares what excites her, what scares her, and what it feels like to step straight into our world. This is the unedited, behind-the-scenes reality of what it takes to even consider joining the expedition.
On this episode of the Osborne Adventure Podcast, I sit down with one of the few people who has known me almost my entire life. Through decades of moves, parenting, hardship, adventure, and complete chaos, we somehow never stopped showing up for each other. What unfolds is an honest conversation about lifelong friendship, resilience, family, and the rare relationships that survive every version of who we become.
