Podcasts about great white sharks

It was a movie that changed the way we looked at the ocean. WBBM's Lisa Fielding talked to a scientist about how "Jaws" made an impact on sharks *and pop culture.

This is episode four of Swimming with Shadows: A Radiolab Week of Sharks.Alison Kock was working at a car wash in Cape Town when she made a discovery that completely changed the course of her life. Inside a customer's trunk, she found photographs of white sharks flying so high above the water they looked like airplanes. She followed those photographs to False Bay, “the Great White Capital of the World.” These sharks, in this place, are the apex of apex predators. Or they were. Until they mysteriously began to disappear.Special thanks to Kathryn Ayres.EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Rachael Cusick Produced by - Simon Adler and Maria Paz Gutierrezwith help from - Rebecca Laks Original music from - Simon Adler and Maria Paz GutierrezSound design contributed by - Jeremy Bloomwith mixing help from - Jeremy BloomFact-checking by - Diane A.

This is episode two of Swimming with Shadows: A Radiolab Week of Sharks.Jaws spawned a thousand imitators: sharks in tornados, sharks in avalanches, sharks that battle giant octopuses. Hollywood has officially turned sharks into monsters of every shape and size. And yet, somehow, there will always be more.But drop below the surface, into the cold, quiet blue, and another creature appears. One that has survived mass extinctions, outlasted ancient predators and pre-dates Mount Everest, the existence of trees, even the rings of Saturn. A shark that is somehow even more remarkable than sharks in tornadoes.Today, we go visit that shark. Special thanks to Andrew Fox, the entire team at Rodney Fox Shark Expeditions, John Long whose book The Secret History of Sharks inspired our obsession with sharks, and Greg Skomal, whose wonderful new book on his life studying white sharks is Chasing Shadows: My Life Tracking the Great White Shark.EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Rachael Cusickwith help from - Pat WaltersProduced by - Rachael Cusick and Simon Adlerwith help from - Pat WaltersSound design contributed by - Jeremy Bloomwith mixing help from - Jeremy BloomFact-checking by - Natalie Middletonand Edited by  - Pat WaltersEPISODE CITATIONS:Videos - Loved learning about all the different kinds of sharks there are?

Why the 50th Anniversary of Jaws Still Matters for Shark Science The movie Jaws terrified audiences and demonized great white sharks, but it also inspired a generation of shark researchers and boosted funding for marine science. In this special anniversary episode of Beyond Jaws, co-hosts Andrew Lewin and Dr. David Ebert revisit the legacy of Jaws 50 years later. They speak with leading shark researchers—Lisa Natanson, Greg Skomal, and Chris Lowe, about how the film influenced their careers and the public's relationship with sharks. Shark science owes more to Jaws than you might think. This episode dives into the personal stories of scientists from the original “Jaws Generation,” exploring how a horror film launched scientific careers, sparked public interest, and led to groundbreaking research on great whites. Whether you love or loathe the movie, its influence on conservation and marine biology is undeniable.

Throughout the history of time, there have been few other animals that evoke such a strong emotional response from the general public as the great white shark. From Hollywood-driven fear to sublime fascination, the great white shark has captivated the imaginations of hundreds of millions of people. Few know this species better than Dr Greg Skomal, of the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries. Since 1987, he has served as the senior fisheries biologist at MA DMF and has become one of the world's leading authorities on Great Whites. In this riveting presentation, Dr. Skomal highlights his research on these apex predators, which includes some amazing video and visuals that help dispel a lot of myths surrounding great whites. Dr. Skomal gives us an insider's look into the lives of the most notorious fish in the ocean!

The beach town of Amity Island has been experiencing some mysterious attacks from a mysterious entity within the nearby ocean, resulting in some brutal deaths.  And the local police chief Brody (Roy Scheider) is concerned that it MIGHT be sharks....and he's not the only one, there's also the visiting marine biologist Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) who suspects that it MIGHT be a Great White Shark. :o And besides them, there's the local sea-dog Quint (Robert Shaw) who not only believes that it's a Great White Shark but that ONLY he can kill it. And we're off to the sea in Steven Spielberg's classic mega-blockbuster which is about to turn 50!  We're gonna need a BIGGER boat indeed.....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

When Sean Pollard felt something 'bump' his leg while surfing off the Esperance coastline back in 2014, he had no idea what had hit him. Until the 3.5 meter Great White Shark that was attacking him, came back for another bite. Seconds later, having lost an arm and his other hand, Sean realised his only chance of survival was to swim some 100 meters back to the shore...to his waiting girlfriend (and now wife) Claire. All the while, that same shark continued circling and waited for him to bleed out. Incredibly, Sean not only survived that terrifying ordeal - but he's since thrived. After marrying the love of his life and having a beautiful baby daughter together, Sean is now an international para-Snowboarding champion, with his sights firmly set on the 2026 Winter Olympics.***Thanks so much for listening to this episode of the Flying Doctor Podcast.

Great white sharks are feared and revered as the deadliest, most ferocious creatures that lurk in our oceans. But despite being at the top of the aquatic food chain, it turns out even they've got something to fear. Back in 2003, Australian scientists studying the infamous toothy terrors attached a tracker to a huge, nine-foot-long great white to see what it got up to. However, just four months later, the tracker washed up on a beach – without the shark! Unbelievably, something had eaten the beast. But what could possibly be so powerful it chowed down on one of the most terrifying creatures in the world and left nothing behind? Well, from a lost megalodon to a giant squid, get ready for a deep dive into this spooky mystery, as we try and find out exactly what ate the giant great white shark!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Wildlife cinematographer Dan Abbott has travelled the world documenting marine life from the peaceful turtles of the Mediterranean to the iconic great white sharks off the coast of South Africa.More recently, though, Dan has hit the headlines for the videos he has shared of the colonies of whales who have made the British coast a regular stop in recent years.We're delighted, then, that Dan was able to join James Fisher on the Country Life podcast to talk all things marine wildlife, from the disarming curiosity of the blue shark to the alarming rudeness of the bottlenose dolphin. And yes, we also spoke to him about great white sharks, the awe-inspiring predator which actually inspired him to get in to a career as a wildlife film maker. Dan speaks about what it's like to come face to face with a creature which — thanks in large part to Steven Spielberg's Jaws — has a reputation as one of the scariest on the planet. Not only will Dan's insights make you think again, he'll also have your eyes widen as he talks about the predator even scarier than a great white in full flow. It's an amazing episode with a fascinating guest.You can find out more about Dan's life and career by following his Instagram page @sharkman_dan.

  This week on The Nerd Nebula, the fearless (and questionably competent) trio of Jay Silver, Brother Barkington, and Kowasu are given a simple task by the ever-mysterious Shady Vendor: capture a Carcharodon carcharias (Great White Shark) pup. Easy, right? There's just one tiny issue—spaceships aren't exactly known for their seaworthiness.   Enter Vicious Mechanical Modifications, a shop that sounds both highly reputable and definitely not sketchy. There, they meet a man named Jimothy, who looks like he was born in a toolbox. He assures them that with enough duct tape, questionable engineering, and an anti-gravity hydrofoil (whatever that is), their spaceship will be ocean-ready in no time.   Because, obviously, strapping boat parts to a spaceship makes total sense.   Now, with their barely-floating death trap prepped, Jay, Brother Barkington, and Kowasu set off to hunt down a shark puppy.   What could possibly go wrong?  (Spoiler: A lot.)

Fighter Pilot Survival: Kegan Gill's Battle Beyond the Battlefield In this extraordinary episode, Marcus and Melanie meet with retired U.S. Navy Fighter Pilot Kegan Gill, whose story is nothing short of miraculous. Kegan survived a catastrophic ejection from his aircraft during a training mission over the Atlantic Ocean, where he ejected directly into the sound barrier. The injuries he sustained in that moment were severe enough to kill most people – his limbs torn apart and a traumatic brain injury among them. But Kegan's ordeal was only beginning. Plunged into the icy waters of the Atlantic with his parachute still attached, his wetsuit torn, and his arms unable to move, Kegan was forced to endure a two-hour battle with hypothermia as rescue teams raced to find him. Miraculously, his hypothermic state prevented fatal blood loss. Following this harrowing experience, Kegan faced months of grueling recovery, eventually achieving a perfect Physical Fitness Test score and returning to flight duty. However, Kegan's journey didn't end with physical recovery. He began experiencing severe psychotic episodes due to his brain injury, leading to a stint in a VA Mental Health Facility. Pharmaceutical treatments only worsened his symptoms, and he endured dehumanizing treatment from caregivers who misunderstood his unique needs. Now, Kegan is finding renewed hope through alternative treatments for brain health. Through the Warrior Angels Foundation, he has discovered the power of nutraceutical and hormonal interventions, offering a glimmer of healing. Beyond his personal health battles, Kegan is a dedicated father and husband, working tirelessly to support his young family. Join us as Kegan opens up about his incredible journey of survival, resilience, and healing. His story is as inspiring as it is shocking – a testament to human strength and the will to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. Tune in to hear a story of grit, determination, and the relentless pursuit of healing against all odds. In This Episode You Will Hear: • When I was about 10 years old, my family had a friend that had a Cessna, and he took me up on this lawnmower with wings, and we went buzzing around, and it felt like a freakin' rocket ship. I absolutely loved being above the earth, and I felt so free. (6:26) • In May of 2012, I graduated as a winged aviator, and I got those wings pinned on my chest. (23:30) • [Marcus] It's an absolute transition into a different human being the minute those wings touch your chest. (23:52) • [In flight school] you showed up there, and you had your wings, and you thought you made it. They made it very clear you have not made anything yet. (26:30) • It just so happened on this day there was a 16 foot, 3,500 pound Great White Shark named Mary Lee directly under my airspace, and my buddy pointed out, “ Hey man, Today would be a terrible day to eject,” and an hour after having that conversation, I found myself out on what turned into a pretty freaking wild experience. (36:13) • [Melanie] Q: Is it common to eject?”  [Keegan] A: It happens more than you hear about in the news. We lose a few naval fighter jets every year to mishaps. (37:06) • When you show up at flight school, they say “Look to your left and look to your right. One of you is gonna have a serious mishap or be dead choosing this job. Are you sure you wanna be here?” (37:39) • You think you're invincible, and you don't really think anything of it. (37:54) • Keegan tells the detailed story of that fateful day. (Starting at 41:16) • When I punched out, I got the initial blast from the ejection seat, and then immediately impacted the sound barrier with my body. At that speed, the human body is not aerodynamic. (50:53) • The aircraft impacted the water so fast, it just vaporized. (52:45) • They ended up wheeling me in, and treated me for severe hyperthermia. They took my core body temperature. I was at 87 degrees. [Marcus] “That should've killed you.” (60:09) • One of the more senior guys takes me into his office and he goes: “Congratulations, Lieutenant Gill. If you can figure out how to get your body working again, we'll get you back in a Super Hornet. (68:09) • My brain was just not working the way it was supposed to from TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). (74:59) • I had a deep sense of betrayal from all that thought I had served. To see the treatment, it seemed like everything I was fighting for was a joke. (89:21) • I've had a number of psychedelic-assisted therapies that have been really helpful. (95:22) • Ibogaine has been studied pretty thoroughly at this point. It's showing that it triggers neuro-regeneration. (101:48 

News with Sean 11-19-2024 …That Great White Shark seems pretty close

Ba - Ba. Ba - Ba. The Jaws theme is just the best isn't it? Unless you listen to our episode the other week where we very much made the case that John Williams' score for Jurassic Park was the greatest of all time. But what a film this is. We're in the heart of spooky szn and so it would be rude not to get into a film that scared off people from going into the water for an entire generation.Within the pod we ask the question - Whether this is a horror film or simply just horrifying? How on earth you go about making a 24ft Great White Shark? And why Steven Spielberg nearly ran the whole production into financial difficulty?At the heart of this film though we need to ask whether this is a film about a shark or is there something more at play here? We love making BYOB and hope you enjoy the pod too - if you do have a spare minute to drop us a 5 star rating and a bit of a review that would be most helpful!! Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the Aptitude Outdoors Podcast, we dive into the remarkable return of seals to the coastlines of Cape Cod. Once nearly driven to extinction due to overhunting and human conflict, harbor and gray seals have made a triumphant comeback thanks to vital conservation efforts like the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972. We explore the history behind the near-extinction of these marine mammals, the pivotal laws that saved them, and how their resurgence is reshaping the coastal ecosystem. As seal populations have rebounded, they've attracted the return of another iconic predator: the great white shark. Cape Cod's waters, now teeming with life, have become a hotspot for shark sightings, sparking both excitement and concern among residents and visitors. In this episode, we discuss the critical role seals play in the marine ecosystem and how their presence supports the natural food chain, including the resurgence of sharks. We also highlight the work of the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, an organization committed to protecting these apex predators while educating the public on their importance. From shark tagging to the Sharktivity app, the conservancy's efforts balance conservation with public safety, ensuring a sustainable future for both seals and sharks in Cape Cod's waters. Tune in for a deep dive into the intricate relationships between these animals and their environment.

Would you like to better communicate with your furry companions? According to our guest today, animal communication expert Amelia Kinkade, animals have thoughts, feelings, emotions and readily communicate, both among themselves and with us. Amelia discusses how she developed her gift and how you too might be able to develop the ability to communicate with your animal friends, whether they be winged, finned, scaled, or furred. Amelia also discusses how animals are being exploited in different areas of the world and how hunters are spending exorbitant amounts of money for trophy animals in Africa. She has various animal charity events where she's raising awareness of these practices and also teaching people how to understand what animals are thinking and feeling. She explains that you can learn to use your body as an instrument. This is a meditative process involving silencing your mind, so there's no negativity, no inner dialogue. This prepares you to be able to sit in silence with another animal. Be in awe of the animal's grace. Be in gratitude. Then you can be in communication. She discusses how our animals can take on our problems and diseases. There is one enormous field, and we are all connected. When something gets out of balance, our cells are not communicating. This can reflect in our animals as well. The concept of harmony and communication between all living things can happen in this field of higher vibration. Amelia also discusses what animals worldwide think about humans.   Amelia has been listed in The 100 Top Psychics in America. A full-time animal communicator, she is sought by veterinarians, animal rescue organizations, and animal lovers all over the world.  Amelia is the author of numerous books including “Aurora's Secret” and “Straight From the Horse's Mouth: How to Talk to Animals and Get Answers.” Amelia's true passion is assisting animal rescue organizations in Africa who create safe havens for relocated tigers, lions, White Lions, elephants, cheetah, Great White Sharks, penguins, baboons, and even bats and snakes. Info: www.ameliakinkade.com.

In a recent episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Luan emphasized the importance of not sensationalizing these incidents and instead focusing on the individuals affected by them. The episode highlighted recent shark bite incidents in Destin, Florida, where multiple individuals sustained major injuries. Luan expressed sympathy for the victims and their families, acknowledging the trauma and challenges they must be facing. It is crucial to remember that these individuals are not to blame for the attacks, and their well-being should be the primary concern. While it is natural for news agencies and social media platforms to cover such events, it is essential to approach the coverage with sensitivity and empathy. Luan cautioned against perpetuating myths and misinformation about sharks, as this can lead to unnecessary fear and demonization of these creatures. Dr. Gavin Naylor, an expert in shark research and the director of the Florida Program for Shark Research at the Florida Museum of Natural History, provided valuable insights into the factors that may contribute to shark attacks, such as environmental conditions and shark behavior. He also offered practical tips for beachgoers to reduce the risk of encountering sharks, emphasizing the importance of staying calm and taking precautionary measures. In conclusion, while shark attacks are tragic and alarming, it is crucial to approach the topic with compassion and understanding. By focusing on the victims and their families, we can ensure that the human impact of these incidents is not overshadowed by sensationalized narratives. It is essential to promote awareness and education about shark behavior and conservation efforts to foster a better understanding of these magnificent creatures. Through accurate reporting and education, the public can develop a better appreciation for sharks and their vital role in marine ecosystems.
