    Ep 12: A Traveler's Life ft. Justin Walter

    Join us as we chat with special guest Justin Walter - a travel content creator with over 16 years of experience as a host, expert, writer, influencer and producer. We first connected with Justin through the Shark Week world, and have worked on multiple film productions together.
    And so of course, we cover everything travel - from finding the balance between experiecing the moment vs. documenting it, to pondering if we should do a special film series featuring the dads of BTW team members playing their roles aboard our research vessel R/V Tigress - in what would surely become an episode of Survivor.

Great Podcast!

I recently found this podcast and love it! I have only been certified for about two years, but I’m addicted! I can also relate to the episode when they talk about diving at Tiger Beach! After getting certified, it was my first dive trip/liveaboard experience! Such an incredible experience!
