Apple Podcasts5Ron & Heidi SCUBAUnited States2 years ago - Long Form Conversations
Truly stoked to see that Gareth has “finally” gotten into the podcast game as a host.
As a guest on our podcast, he spoke as if he had been preparing for this role all his life, which of course he has.
The long form conversations that podcasts allow are one more way for divers, etc., to learn from experts like Gareth and his guests which can then be applied to their own experiences.
Looking forward to the in depth listening that your podcast will surely offer.

Gareth is bringing the human back to diving and ushering in a much needed culture shift in the community. What I have learned in Human Factors has fundamentally changed not only how I do my dives, but how I learn and get better. I can even apply these lessons and techniques in my non-diving career.
