Great for everyone

I don’t dive, even though I would like to. I don’t have much time right now, but this podcast is an excellent way to learn about scuba diving in an entertaining way. You don’t have to be a diver to enjoy this podcast, and it is great. If you like hearing about the ocean, scuba diving, and encouraging stories then you should try listening to this!
