In a remarkable turn of events, Jaws fan Edward Rodriguez joins the show to explain the history of Mare Island, and how he was able to present The Book of Quint to USS Indianapolis survivor Harold Bray.
Listener emails and we touch on the map of Amity Island, the possible origins of Amity's 50th annual regatta, and the digestive system of a shark.

A new discovery for The Jaws Obsession. The real-life inspiration for Quint's USS Indianapolis speech is identified.
Back from England, The Book of Quint is now in Robert Shaw's hometown of Westhoughton, Greater Manchester, UK. A replay of the speech introducing the book to Westhoughton.
Dan Carver visits the show to bring a spotlight onto a key piece of evidence that leads us to a special conclusion when all the pieces to the puzzle are placed together. Special thanks to Andrew Currie for gifting the show with the antique book that started it all.
In memory of Quartermaster First Class Robert Gause

Still alive and kicking in the Jaws Obsession. Book of Quint and Jaws news. Listener emails. Screenplays for The Book of Quint completed. A Jurassic Park prequel idea gets some media buzz. What is Mr. Taft asking Brody on the beach? Does Quint have a military motivation in giving Hooper a hard time? So much to discuss!
