Chris Willi's not afraid to speak his mind. The former town councilor speaks candidly about his time on the council. But don't expect any ranting and raving or diatribes here. If there's one thing he's learned it's that having honest, frank discussions about tough topics are crucial to our success as a community. 

We'll get Chris's views on a wide range of issues he faced during his tenure on Town Council. Ever wonder what a councilor would say when he's no longer a politician? Here's your chance to find out.

But it ain't all politics. We also learn how Chris came to Block Island and eventually took the job as Harbor Master. Beyond that, there's a lot of talk about fishing. As owner of BI Fishworks, Chris provides charter service and gear out of his brick and mortar shop on Ocean Ave. And if that weren't enough to keep a guy busy Chris  recently took over ownership of Captain Nick's Rock n' Roll Bar at the behest of his buddy and TGOBI Podcast host, Marc Scortino.

Sure, Captain Willi has a full plate. But he's a guy who's not afraid of a challenge. He's also not afraid to get rid of a perfectly good bunch of bananas. Click "play" and find out what we're talking about!
