Jabez Fights the Channel
Season 4, Episode 8, Jun 16, 2022, 11:30 PM
Nobody swam farther than the man mountain Jabez Wolffe when attempting to conquer the English Channel. More than 600 miles, in fact. But despite 22 attempts over 15 years he never once made it to the other side, defeated by circumstances ranging from 'biliousness' to war breaking out when he was halfway across.
Hear Jabez's story and his, ah, unorthodox opinions on what kind of woman is best equipped to swim the Channel.
