The Sailor Jerry Podcast

We’re bringing the old school into the new school. Inspired by Norman ‘Sailor Jerry’ Collins’ KTRG radio show Old Ironsides, we’ve created THE SAILOR JERRY PODCAST. The Sailor Jerry Podcast pays homage to all the things we love most, from tattooing and travel, to food, music and beyond. We’ve teamed up with long-time bud of Sailor Jerry and the Bronx frontman Matt Caughthran, to tell these stories our own damn way. Stay tuned to interviews with tattooers, mixologists, musicians and more folks that inspire us - all coming to you in biweekly episodes. Join us for the badass journey that is The Sailor Jerry Podcast.
