With Jesse Hildebrand (and friends) of Exploring By the Seat of Your Pants and Nature For All Why do personal nature stories move us so much? In what ways does meaningful nature storytelling connect to conservation of wildlife and wild places? Is it enough to focus on the wonder of nature or do we have to communicate its benefits to humans explicit? In the midst of Nature For All's Storytelling Festival Love Fest, we share nature stories and get to the heart of engaging people's hearts and minds during a time where inspiring actions to preserve nature are giving us very real reasons for hope. There's also some talk of rewilding, biophilia, public wolf howls, and the majesty of Gros Morne National Park. Guests: Jesse Hildebrand is the VP of Education at non-profit Exploring By The Seat of Your Pants, where he coordinates 40+ monthly broadcasts featuring scientists and explorers worldwide. He's the founder of Canada's Science Literacy Week, the former producer of Toronto's Story Collider show, and he coordinates the global BackyardBio nature campaign! Storytellers: Alysa McCall is a staff scientist and director of conservation outreach at Polar Bears International. She supports educational initiatives and scientific research across the Arctic, with a focus on Canadian projects. Alysa is working to further wild Polar Bear coexistence and conservation from her home in (Polar Bear–free) Whitehorse, Yukon. Jai Sharma is a National Geographic-certified Nature and wildlife educator and member of IUCN, CEC, and Nature For All. He is a passionate Naturalist cum trainer guiding students and community to develop passion for nature conservation and a better and healthy planet for our future.

Coming Clean with the Dirty Dozen. Listen to Aron Arngrimsson and Jill Heinerth in lockdown as they delve deeper into decompression sickness and diving.

Jill Heinerth’s life story is one of wild adventure, with more than 30 years spent scuba diving beneath glaciers and into dark, underwater caves (once spending 13 consecutive hours on a dive). Not all of those dives have gone well. For our second conversation on confidence, Heinerth explains what we can all learn about managing fear, staying calm, and beating panic from her three decades of surviving underwater.

What it’s like to swim inside of an iceberg the size of a small country? World-renowned cave diver Jill Heinerth led a team of divers inside the massive B-15 iceberg in Antarctica, and throughout her career has completed hundreds of other underwater dives across the world. We speak with Heinerth about the beauty and risks of cave diving and the importance of her work in helping scientists, biologists and researchers learn more about the Earth’s oceans and ecosystems.

Elite cave diver Jill Heinerth joins on this week’s podcast to discuss her vivid new memoir, Into the Planet. It’s a deep dive into the formative experiences that taught her to face and harness fear, enabling her to build a remarkable career that has taken her to the literal ends of the earth. Heinerth shares the narrative arc of a dive, what it’s like to explore places on earth less traveled than the face of the moon, and the responsibilities that come along with being the Royal Canadian Geographical Society’s first-ever Explorer in Residence. Then our editors join with their reading recommendations for the week, including books by Shannon Hale (ill. LeUyen Pham), Rainbow Rowell, Ian Urbina, and Bruce Holsinger.

One Ocean Expeditions presents Explore: A Canadian Geographic Podcast. Jill Heinerth is the world’s leading underwater cave diver, and her quest to understand what lies beneath the surface of our planet has taken her to some incredible places. “I have cave-dived beneath golf courses, bowling alleys, homes,” she says. “My favorite was under the salad bar of a Sunny’s BBQ restaurant while a surface tracking team was walking between the tables yelling, ‘cave survey, coming through,’ and planting an orange flag in a salad bar potato salad.” Heinerth’s dives have also taken her into lava tubes in underwater volcanoes, oases in the Sahara desert and flooded mine shafts. She has set records for the longest and deepest recorded cave dives, including for the longest dive inside an Antarctic iceberg. In 2016, she became the inaugural Explorer-in-Residence of The Royal Canadian Geographical Society, and she continues to push her own boundaries in pursuit of the thrill of discovery.

Jill Heinerth is an extreme cave diver who gets to dive deep inside underwater caves, search for never before seen ecosystems inside giant Antarctic icebergs, and explore the magical underwater world.  Jill’s curiosity and passion about our watery planet is the driving force in her life.
