Description
Santa Rosa native Brett Crozier was the captain of the nuclear aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. His email to Navy brass begging for more help as the virus spread among his crew made international news — and cost him his post. It's All Political on Fifth & Mission host host Joe Garofoli broke that story with fellow Chronicle reporter Matthias Gafni. Crozier hasn't spoken about the incident until now. He joins Garofoli to discuss his "conscience over career moment" and his new memoir, "Surf When You Can: Lessons in Life, Loyalty, and Leadership from a Maverick Navy Captain." | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod
