  • Keep up the good work guys

    Hi Guys, I regularly listen to your podcasts, today was episode 199.

    I agree with the comments about getting younger people to take up the sport, there are so many different things young people can choose today. The dive show could have a special feature for our ‘seal’ divers.

    As a DM at a local diver training centre , Dream Divers based in Rotherham ( no where near the sea) I too often see people qualify on OW and then they don’t dive again.

    A lot of time, effort and cost goes into gettin... more

  • Keep up the good work guys

    Hi Guys, I regularly listen to your podcasts, I’ve not listened to everyone as I’ve not been listening to podcasts for too long, but I have kept up with the latest ones. I listened to ep192 today. It was interesting to listen to how diving can be promoted and how some other hobbies get traction on some socials more effectively than others. I follow a number of people on you tube and it’s not unusual for them to have 10,000”s of followers, and I’m not really sure that diving in the UK has the sam... more

  • Great diving podcast. Each episode is based around an interview and the guests are usually really interesting. They come from a wide variety of marine-related backgrounds, so the talk is relevant to diving and interesting to divers but it's not endless chat about dive kit, techniques, locations, etc. But they do still talk about diving too. Also, they manage to avoid any bias towards any particular training agency, which is very refreshing. Recommended podcast for any diver.

Q: What would you say to someone who's thinking about learning to dive?
