Noob Spearo Podcast | Spearfishing Talk with Shrek and Turbo
Host Shrek opens the Noob Spearo podcast with a listener voice message from Matt sharing ear-care tips for divers (coconut oil drops before diving and periodic rinses with a 50/50 vinegar and alcohol mix). The episode then jumps into a last-day, post-trip recap of the Whitsundays Sail & Spear Trip, with Sam the Waterman explaining the context: sailing through the Whitsunday Islands to the outer Great Barrier Reef, hundreds of fish landed across the trip, multiple 20kg+ GTs caught on rod and line between spearfishing sessions, and notable catches like Red Throat and Spangled Emperor on luncheon meat, alongside strong crew bonding. In a roundtable-style debrief, guests and instructors share highlights, misses, and "frother" shoutouts: exhaustion from consecutive days of diving, stories of drift dives and tidal creek/lagoon systems, Spanish mackerel attempts using throw flashers and diver formations, bull sharks around the boat, and lessons on relaxing during deep dives (relax jaw, hands, feet; free-float the top 10m). Several divers celebrate first-time or milestone catches including yellow lip emperor, coral trout, Red Throat Emperor, Red Emperor, parrotfish, and multiple GTs landed early in the morning. The group emphasizes buddy diving, safety, instruction quality (notably Tim), and the unique Great Barrier Reef scenery. The episode closes with details on how to join future Sail & Spear charters via spearfishingcourses.com.au, plus a push to watch the video version on YouTube/Spotify and check out the revamped Noob Spearo YouTube channel with help from Sam the Waterman.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Gifts and Friendships: A Market Adventure by the Reef Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-02-24-08-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Bálint izgatottan sétált a piac gonoszul színes kavalkádjában.En: Bálint walked excitedly through the wickedly colorful hustle and bustle of the market.Hu: A korallzátony közelében voltak a standok felállítva, a napsütés aranyló fényt vetett a különböző szuvenírekre.En: The stalls were set up near the coral reef, and the sunshine cast a golden light on the various souvenirs.Hu: Tengeri csillagok, korall karkötők, és kagylóból készült díszek mindenütt!En: Starfish, coral bracelets, and shell decorations everywhere!Hu: Mindez szokatlan volt neki, hiszen általában a tudományos munka morajlásában élt, nem a turisták nyüzsgő forgatagában.En: This was unusual for him, as he usually lived in the hum of scientific work, not in the bustling crowd of tourists.Hu: Most azonban ajándékot keresett Zsófiának.En: However, now he was looking for a gift for Zsófia.Hu: Valami olyat, ami egyedi.En: Something unique.Hu: Ahogy Bálint az egyik standhoz érkezett, a kereskedő rögtön odalépett hozzá, hatalmas mosollyal és befogadó gesztusokkal.En: As Bálint arrived at one of the stalls, the vendor immediately approached him with a huge smile and welcoming gestures.Hu: „Hello! You like this?” – próbálta terelni a figyelmét egy drága, csillogó nyakláncra.En: “Hello! You like this?” he tried to steer his attention to an expensive, shiny necklace.Hu: Bálint zavartan próbálta elmagyarázni, hogy csak nézelődik, de a szavak összezavarodtak fejében.En: Bálint, flustered, tried to explain that he was just browsing, but the words got tangled in his head.Hu: Mélyet sóhajtott. "Nem, köszönöm, csak..."En: He sighed deeply. "No, thank you, just..."Hu: A piac zajában egy kis fiatalember vette észre a küzdelmét.En: In the noise of the market, a young man noticed his struggle.Hu: László, a nyelvészet hallgatója volt, és mivel épp szünidőn volt, alkalmi munkát vállalt a piacon.En: László, a linguistics student, was on vacation and took up some casual work at the market.Hu: „Segíthetek?” – kérdezte barátságosan, saját anyanyelvén.En: “Can I help?” he asked friendly, in his native language.Hu: Bálint megkönnyebbülten fordult felé.En: Bálint turned towards him relieved.Hu: „Te beszélsz magyarul? Nagyszerű! Egy különleges ajándékot keresek egy barátomnak. Valami szép, de olcsó legyen.”En: “You speak Hungarian? Great! I'm looking for a special gift for a friend. Something nice but cheap.”Hu: László bólogatott, majd segítőkészen kalauzolta Bálintot az olcsóbb, de szép termékeket kínáló standokhoz.En: László nodded and helpfully guided Bálint to stalls offering cheaper yet beautiful products.Hu: Együtt találtak rá egy kézműves kagylóból faragott figurára, ami pont illik Zsófia elegáns stílusához.En: Together they found a handcrafted shell carving that perfectly matched Zsófia's elegant style.Hu: Ahogy a napsugarak csillogtak a kagyló sima felületén, Bálint érezte, hogy ez a megfelelő ajándék.En: As the sunbeams glistened on the shell's smooth surface, Bálint felt this was the right gift.Hu: László ügyesen alkudott a kereskedővel, és a végén barátságos áron hozták el a figurát.En: László skillfully bargained with the vendor, and in the end, they got the carving at a friendly price.Hu: „Köszönöm, László.En: “Thank you, László.Hu: Ha nem találkozunk, bajban lettem volna” – mondta hálásan Bálint, miközben a kellemes tengeri szellő továbbsodorta őket a piac forgatagában.En: If we hadn't met, I would have been in trouble,” Bálint said gratefully, as the pleasant sea breeze swept them further into the market's bustle.Hu: Bálint boldogan tért vissza a szállására, a kezében a tökéletes ajándékkal.En: Bálint returned happily to his accommodation, holding the perfect gift.Hu: Útközben elgondolkodott.En: Along the way, he pondered.Hu: Rájött, hogy néha szükség van mások segítségére, és ez nem a gyengeség jele, hanem az összetartozásé.En: He realized that sometimes one needs the help of others, and it's not a sign of weakness, but of belonging.Hu: Érezte, ahogy nőtt az önbizalma, és mosolyogva tekintett új barátjára, aki mellé szegődött.En: He felt his confidence grow as he smiled at his new friend who had come along beside him.

Our oceans are 40% more acidic than pre-industrial times, making it harder for corals, molluscs, crustaceans and plankton to build their calcium carbonate skeletons. It's a crucial planetary boundary we've crossed — threatening reefs, fisheries, tourism, food security, and coastal communities. And almost no one is talking about it.So what's driving it? What does it mean for the Great Barrier Reef? And what can we do?This week on Word on the Reef, we're joined by Dr Katharina Fabricius from the Australian Institute of Marine Science — a global leader in coral reef ecology and ocean acidification research — to unpack the science and the solutions.Read Dr Fabricius's research: Volcanic bubbles help foretell the fate of coral in more acidic seasThumbnail image: CO2 bubbles emerging from volcanic seeps in Papua New Guinea.

Net revenue retention is under pressure. SaaS growth has slowed. Sales and marketing budgets are shrinking. And AI is forcing companies to rethink everything, from seat-based pricing models to how they engage, retain, and grow customers.In this episode of TECHtonic, host Thomas Lah welcomes back Brent Grimes, CEO of Reef.ai, for a direct and timely conversation about what's actually happening in the AI revenue landscape.Since their last discussion, AI capabilities have advanced rapidly, but the bigger shift isn't just better models. It's how companies are using those models to survive and win in a far more demanding market. With declining net revenue retention across public SaaS companies and mounting pressure to “do more with less,” leaders can no longer rely on intuition, last-call sentiment, or broad segmentation strategies. The era of guessing is ending.Thomas and Brent explore the rise of model-driven revenue management, where predictive AI doesn't just improve forecasting accuracy but identifies churn risk months in advance, pinpoints expansion opportunities with statistical precision, and helps teams prioritize their time where it matters most. They discuss how upsell intelligence may actually unlock more upside than churn reduction alone, and how organizations are beginning to move from dashboards and insights toward autonomous workflows powered by renewal and expansion agents.The conversation also dives into the practical realities of making this shift—from solving data quality challenges to building trust with revenue teams who must learn to work alongside models and agents rather than rely solely on instinct. As AI adoption compounds quarter over quarter, the gap between early adopters and laggards is widening, and 2026 may mark the moment when that divide becomes unmistakable.If you own revenue, lead customer success, or sit in the CRO seat, this episode will challenge how you think about forecasting, expansion, resource allocation, and the future of go-to-market execution.

CSIRO scientists have discovered a massive underwater mountain, shaped like a half-eaten flan, rising 3,000 metres from the seafloor off the coast of North Queensland. That's taller than Australia's highest mainland peak, Mount Kosciuszko. And it's teeming with life.To guide us on a deep dive into this 40-million-year-old extinct volcano and its flantastic inhabitants, our guest on Word on the Reef this week is Marine Geophysicist Dr Chris Yuleridge.Dr Yuleridge also takes us '20 thousands leagues under the sea' to explore lost shipwrecks, follow submerged Aboriginal song lines, meet the faceless cusk eel, and dive inside the recently erupted Hunga Tonga volcano.If you're a big flan of science, this episode is for you.

Before setting sail, we check in on the bouncing baby Jesse and the newlyweds who made him. Things aren't going too hot for the young family, the line between reciprocal sacrifice and foolheadedness seeming blurrier every day, and that's without getting into the vigilantism. But now they've parted ways, for the kid's own good, and as Reef eyes his duty to gallivant overseas, the crew shuffles paper in the form of talking politics.If you like what we're doing and want to support the show, please consider making a donation on Ko-Fi.

In this company update, we are joined by Mike Spreadborough, Executive Co-Chairman, and Kas De Luca, General Manager of Exploration at Novo Resources (TSX: NVO | ASX: NVO | OTCQX: NSRPF). Following a flurry of activity across their portfolio, the team discusses the significant expansion of exploration targets at the Belltopper Project in Victoria, Australia. Key Discussion Points: Exploration Target Upgrade: The company recently announced a 40% increase in estimated ounces and a 48% increase in tonnage at the Belltopper Project, with the high-case exploration target now exceeding 880,000 ounces of gold. Geological Confidence: Kas De Luca explains how a year of mapping, 3D modeling of historical mine data, and modern drilling has expanded the target to eight distinct high-grade reefs, including the discovery of additional structures like the O'Connor's Reef. Proximity to World-Class Mines: The team highlights Belltopper's strategic location within the Bendigo Tectonic Zone, situated just 60km south of the high-grade Fosterville mine, in a province that has produced over 60 million ounces of gold. Upcoming Work Programs: Mike Spreadborough outlines the roadmap for the second half of 2026, which includes a major diamond and RC drilling campaign aimed at converting these exploration targets into a formal inferred resource. Portfolio-Wide Momentum: Beyond Victoria, the conversation touches on near-term drilling plans for projects in the Pilbara, supported by a solid cash position of approximately $8 million as of the start of the year.

The first multicellular animals to build reefs lived in the Early Cambrian around the time of the Cambrian explosion. They were sponges called archaeocyaths. In the podcast, Sara Pruss suggests that the rise of the archaeocyaths fostered an increase in animal diversity. But they were relatively short-lived, and when they died out in the Middle Cambrian, the diversity declined. Over geological time, reef-building organisms appear and disappear again and again until the corals we have today appeared in the Middle Triassic, about 240 million years ago.Pruss is currently trying to understand why reefs are such a persistent feature of the geological record, despite the environmental stresses imposed on them. She is a Professor of Geosciences at Smith College.

Behind the scenes of fisheries policy shaping how anglers fish, access bait, and protect opportunity nationwide. Live bait fishing, artificial reef habitat, and red snapper seasons are some of the big flashpoints of the day shaping the future of recreational angling. Fisheries leaders from the American Sportfishing Association and conservation policy experts sit down with Sportsmen's Voice host Fred Bird to unpack three critical battles every serious angler should understand. First, we dig into the emerging push to restrict interstate live bait sales. Framed publicly as an invasive species concern, these proposals could effectively end live bait fishing in entire regions; especially for ice fishing, panfish, and entry-level anglers. The conversation breaks down why fisheries scientists and state wildlife agencies are pushing back, how bait dealers already operate under strict biosecurity standards, and what these bans would mean for participation, local economies, and fishing heritage. Next, we shift offshore to the Gulf of Mexico and the Rigs-to-Reef program. Decommissioned oil platforms have quietly become some of the most productive fish habitat in American waters. You'll hear why keeping these structures in place matters for red snapper, reef fish, and saltwater anglers and what bipartisan legislation aims to fix in the current permitting process. Finally, we cover red snapper management in both the Gulf and South Atlantic, explaining how state-led data collection has transformed seasons from just days to months. This episode offers a clear look at why better data means more days on the water—and how anglers play a role in that future.

As part of our official DealFlow Discovery Conference Interview Series, produced by Mission Matters, along with our partner DealFlow Events, we're showcasing the innovative companies presenting at the upcoming DealFlow Discovery Conference (January 28-29, at the Borgata in Atlantic City) and the executives behind them. In this episode, Adam Torres interviews Stephen Mullowney, CEO of TRX Gold, about scaling the Buck Reef Gold Project in Tanzania. Stephen discusses operational expansion, a cash flow-driven approach to growth, and TRX Gold's mission to create long-term value for shareholders while supporting local communities. About Stephen Mullowney Mr. Mullowney was appointed CEO in December 2020. He is a former Partner and Managing Director at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), where he led PwC Canada's Deals Mining Group for more than ten years. Mr. Mullowney has an extensive mining background, working with miners, Governments, and institutional investors across the world and supporting them in making key strategic business, financing, and policy decisions. Mr. Mullowney is a CA, CPA, CFA and holds a BBA from Acadia University. About TRX Gold TRX Gold is a high margin and growing gold company advancing the Buckreef Gold Project in Tanzania. Buckreef Gold includes an established open pit operation and 2,000 tonnes per day process plant with upside potential demonstrated in the May 2025 PEA. The PEA outlines average gold production of 62,000 oz per annum over 17.6 years, and $1.9 billion pre-tax NPV5% at average life of mine gold price of $4,000/oz. The Buckreef Gold Project hosts a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 10.8 million tonnes (“MT”) at 2.57 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold containing 893,000 ounces (“oz”) of gold and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 9.1 MT at 2.47 g/t gold for 726,000 oz of gold. The leadership team is focused on creating both near-term and long-term shareholder value by increasing gold production to generate positive cash flow to fund the expansion as outlined in the PEA and grow Mineral Resources through exploration. TRX Gold's actions are led by the highest environmental, social and corporate governance (“ESG”) standards, evidenced by the relationships and programs that the Company has developed during its nearly two decades of presence in the Geita Region, Tanzania.

The hosts trade stories about signing up for scuba lessons, exploring the Florida reef, beach metal-detecting, and quirky moments like naming a local shark “Bruce.” They also share everyday life updates—assembling patio furniture, a gardening mobility cart, canceled golf plans, and half-price mahi dinners. The episode focuses heavily on sleep apnea and CPAP experiences: the awkward at-home sleep study, insurance hassles, struggles to stay awake for testing, and how better sleep transformed their mornings. They close with plans to resume regular research-driven crime episodes in the new year.
Hey everyone! We're back from our holiday break for our first podcast of 2026 and we're finally discussing our December 2025 Book Club Pick Blackmail and Bibingka by Mia P. Manansala.

In this episode, the Water Colors team discusses their top 5 favorite fish that are not safe to keep with coral. The average reef aquarium in 2026 has a variety of mixed corals. Many of the most interesting fish in the aquarium trade are unsafe to keep with corals. This means there’s a whole world of fun and unique species that get overlooked, simply because they’re not compatible with the average reef tank. Many of the species mentioned in this episode will eat corals, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a place in the hobby! What are your favorite non reef safe fish? Looking for more content?

In this episode of the Climate Correction™ Podcast, we're joined by Leneita Fix, founding leader and executive director of The Reef Institute, one of Florida and the Caribbean's most important hubs for coral rescue, restoration, and ocean literacy. Leneita shares how The Reef Institute's groundbreaking Rescue to Reef model is transforming the future of coral conservation through a full-spectrum approach that includes emergency rescues, long-term holding and biobanking, indoor coral spawning, juvenile rearing, and strategic outplanting back into the wild. With more than 8,000 corals from 28 Caribbean species under their care, the organization is safeguarding genetic diversity while supporting scalable, community-driven restoration efforts across the region. Leneita breaks down the surprising biology and physiology of corals. Most people don't know that corals are animals whose "gut health" exists on the outside of their bodies. She explains why the biodiversity of a reef is inseparable from the survival of both stony reef-building corals and soft corals. She walks us through the world of coral reproduction, including IVF and land-based spawning, and shares what it takes to raise juvenile corals strong enough for outplanting in a warming, increasingly acidic ocean. Together, we explore why coral reefs are essential not only for marine ecosystems but for human life. As carbon pollution overwhelms the ocean's ability to absorb it, reefs face compounding threats, from heat-induced bleaching to stronger wave energy that breaks down weakened structures. Leneita connects the dots between reef decline, coastal vulnerability, ocean oxygen production, and the health of life on land, reminding us that the ocean's stability is inseparable from our own. This inspiring conversation highlights the urgent need for bold, collaborative conservation and the hope found in community-centered stewardship. Leneita's leadership illuminates how science, education, and local partnerships can rebuild resilience from the seafloor up. Tune in for a powerful look at the interconnectedness of everything in the ocean and why restoring coral reefs is an essential step toward a livable future for all.

All in on the 4x4 and adjacent pumpers, bass-heavy depth charges and zero-G, dub-leaning stunts, the former Griessmuehle resident and habituée at some of the scene's most illustrious bastions - including our friends of Berghain and Bassiani - dishes out a mind-boggling set packing not just the most massive punch but also a deadeye accuracy in her mixing technique and pristine curation, sure to please lovers of fast-paced and hedonistically havoc-wreaking blends, fully zeroed in on bringing back the true pioneering spirit of techno to the fore. RUFFFFF.
BrownTown heads over to CH Distillery | Jōtō Sushi in Chicago's West Loop for their second-ever live recording with Alicia Hurtado and Qudsiyyah Shariyf of Chicago Abortion Fund. In a moment of further descent into fascism on the federal level, built on decades of policy maneuvers and reactive cultural propaganda through a now resurgent Christian Nationalist and far-right forces, we seek to amplify and uplift the four decades-long work of Chicago Abortion Fund and the movement for reproductive justice, gender equity, and ultimately collective liberation. Not only have we also been working in this movement and others to support from a grassroots level but also to codify life-affirming practices and funding at the policy and institutional level.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast we dive into one of the world's most diverse and valuable ecosystems: Coral reefs. To learn about the benefits of this ecosystem and the risks associated with losing it, we sit down with Sam Teicher, Co-Founder & Chief Reef Officer at reef restoration company Coral Vita. Reefs "take up less than 1% of the seafloor while sustaining 25% of marine life, the livelihoods of about 1 billion people in 100 countries and territories. And now, conservatively, they generate $2.7 trillion a year," Sam says. Healthy reefs also protect shorelines from flooding and storms, and they can help treat a variety of diseases. In the episode, Sam explains how Coral Vita is working to restore reefs that are dying due to climate change, pollution and overfishing. "Restoration is not a silver bullet, but it's also a critical tool in order to keep reefs alive for future generations," Sam says. "Just like we can grow and plant trees for reforestation, we can grow and plant corals for reef restoration." In 2021, Coral Vita won the inaugural Earthshot Prize in the "Revive our Oceans" category. Prince William of Wales launched the prize to find and scale innovative solutions to the world's biggest environmental challenges. This interview took place during Climate Week NYC 2025 on the sidelines of The Nest Climate Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast was an official media partner.

Filho de um fotógrafo windsurfista e uma empresária, ele começou a praticar artes marciais aos 5 anos de idade. Aos 10, descobriu a escalada e, aos 12, começou a se aventurar no mountain bike. Aos 16 anos, mudou-se para o Alasca, onde concluiu o ensino médio e acumulou uma boa experiência em esportes de neve. Foi na San Diego State University, durante o curso de International Business, que ele encontrou seu caminho sobre as duas rodas. Integrou a equipe de ciclismo da universidade, participou de provas de triathlon e de mountain bike XC, até encontrar sua verdadeira paixão: o downhill. Na modalidade, competiu nos EUA, Canadá e Europa. Enquanto levava as trilhas a sério, dava os primeiros passos na sua carreira no marketing esportivo e trabalhou para marcas famosas como Reef e Oakley. De volta ao Brasil, passou pela Pepsico e Billabong antes de ingressar para o time da Red Bull, onde prospectou e gerenciou mais de 50 atletas de elite, como Henrique Avancini, Neymar, Pedro Scooby e Carlos Burle. Após quatro anos, deixou a empresa para se dedicar à distribuição das bicicletas Santa Cruz no Brasil. Fez a transição do downhill para o enduro e passou a competir tanto na América Latina quanto no Enduro World Series. Em 2018, decidiu retornar aos EUA para fazer um mestrado em Ciências Estatísticas, estabelecendo residência na Califórnia. Lecionou marketing na Universidade da Califórnia e atuou no PayPal antes de expandir seu negócio no mercado de ciclismo, acrescentando a importação das bicicletas da Factor e Yeti para o Brasil, inaugurando duas lojas no país e uma em Los Angeles, consolidando assim sua paixão, experiência e know-how. Conosco aqui, um empresário e ciclista apaixonado pela vida, pelas trilhas, pelo mar e pela neve.

"Keep marlin and reef fish off the menu," That's the message from recreational fishers as the government plans to let commercial fishing companies keep and sell bycatch, that right now can't be used. Fisheries New Zealand is proposing 19 regulation changes, which include dropping protections for marlin and 19 reef-fish species outside the Quota Management System. The changes would mean the dead fish could be sold for profit. Advocates say it's putting a target on Aotearoa's vunerable and slow-growing species and will further diminish our already dwindling public fishery. Bella Craig reports.

In this episode of The Deep, Erika discusses the rise and fall of climate alarmism. She dives into the history of the "global warming" apocalypse narrative, and turns to John Paul II to gain a proper human-centered approach to environmentalism.

Our guest this week is a true industry veteran with nearly 40 years in the surf world under his belt. He got his first industry gig in high school managing the Carl Hayward Surfboards Shop. Later, he went on to holding key sales roles with some of the biggest names in the game, including Dragon Alliance, Trac-Top, Sims Snowboards, Counter Culture, Nixon, and Reef. But there's one brand he's stuck with through thick and thin, where his experience has spanned from sales to design director. He's truly an expert when it comes to wetsuits. We're stoked to hear about his incredible journey and long-standing tenure at the core heritage brand, Xcel Wetsuits.Please welcome to the show, Mr. Lance “LV” Varon!

Welcome back to Cafecito y Croquetas, Miami's favorite morning show powered by Stay Tranquilo ☕ Happy Monday & happy start to holiday season!Today we're diving into BIG Miami news and impactful community stories:
Eric speaks with David Dinkens of Dinkens Aquatic Gardens, they discuss his business that supplies reef aquariums with phytoplankton and copepods. The conversation covers the accidental start of his business, which grew from a hobby of setting up a saltwater tank and culturing the microalgae and crustaceans, to his current status as a full-time supplier who left a career as a history teacher. Key topics include the importance of phytoplankton as the foundation of the reef food chain, its role in nutrient control (nitrate and phosphate reduction), and the benefits for coral health and coloration. Dinkens also provides detailed advice on dosing his products and explains the need for a clean, sterile environment for culturing his live foods. Key Takeaways: If a new endeavor seems intimidating, start by doing thorough research to learn the ropes. Embrace small experiments, as they can sometimes accidentally lead to new opportunities and businesses. Maintain a resilient outlook, remembering that difficult situations often have a flip side or a silver lining. Find a hobby, such as keeping an aquarium, that provides a soothing contrast to a busy or fast-paced life. Concentrate on building the foundation of your ecosystem from the bottom up by establishing a strong base layer of the food chain.
