Brett Tolley is the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance 19s community organizer. He comes from a four-generation commercial fishing family out of Cape Cod, MA. He has worked in the fishing industry hanging nets, crewing boats of various gear-types, and commercially shellfishing.Bret says that  1cLocal fishermen and fishing communities are disproportionately left out of the policy decisions that impact their lives. This undermines our coastal communities, the health of the ocean, access to healthy food, and ensuring a fair price to fishermen. 1dHe envisions a future, where fishing families have a level playing field and are celebrated for their role in protecting the health of the ocean as well as their role in feeding people. The Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance was born in 1995 by a group of fishermen and fishing community advocates to explore an alternative management structure. They believed there had to be a better approach to protecting our oceans and managing marine resources.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3010081/advertisement

Next up, Mike brings in author and olive oil expert Joanne Lacina to the show. Telling Mike that she found herself interested in olive oil after a trip to Greece nearly eight years ago. Discussing olive oil fraud and what consumers should know about this huge global industry, Joanne shares that if it’s too good or cheap to be true, it probably is. After the break, Joanne talks about her business, Olive Oil Lovers, where she aims to do-away with the confusion by not only offering a comprehensive selection of some of the best oils in the world, but to also provide customers with the critical information necessary to help find the right oil.
