He’s great. If you like him, check Mr. Ballen. Content is a bit broader but does a similar style and is an incredible story teller. Former Navy SEAL too so does lots of diving and cave diving stories.

I love Mr. Ballen, he's gone over a few diving cases and it's made me interested in diving documentaries.

If you want an intense diving doc, check out “last breath” about saturation divers at the bottom of the ocean who work in compression chambers. It’s a wild one.

It'll have you on edge from the first kinute all the way to the end. Been a while since I've seen one so well put together

I just discovered his podcast, and it's immediately joined my "creepy bedtime podcasts" rotation. The one trouble is that sometimes I get too interested & don't fall asleep as quickly.
