The SharkCast S1e4: Dr. Andreotti Tried to Warn Us

6/19/2023

Comments

 
In the previous SharkCast Chris Fallows provided his take on the white shark disappearance in South Africa.  In this episode we hear from Dr. Sara Andreotti, who's research backs up Chris's logical take on the matter.  Watch the video at the link above or read more at whitesharkcafe.com

Chris Fallows Sets the Record Straight Regarding South Africa's White Shark Disappearance

6/5/2023

Comments

 
Chris Fallows sets the record straight on orcas, the white shark disappearance, and governments selling out wildlife.  We even talk a little about Shark Week.

​When one stops to think about what has been taking place in South Africa, rather than acting like it's a shocking mystery that the white sharks are gone, one should wonder how the white sharks could ever have been expected to survive.

South Africa already had off-shore long-lining then chose to add in-shore long-lining where the white sharks spend 8 months of the year.  Even if these long-lines didn't entangle and kill white sharks, they would essentially be removing the in-shore food source of the white shark.  How does one survive without a food source?  Why would one stay without a food source? 
Furthermore, South Africa intentionally kills white sharks along the shores of their north eastern migration route.  
So they are killed where they eat, they are killed where they migrate, they are still undoubtedly poached to an extent, they are still caught heading back into pelagic waters, and their food source is being fished out.  But hey, let's blame orcas.

Cristina Zenato joins the Sharkcast

5/31/2023

Comments

 
There's a good chance you know Cristina Zenato for her work removing hooks from sharks, but a conversation with Cristina is an opportunity to think about doing good as part of a bigger picture. One littler thing is better than no big thing! When speaking with someone who spends her time engaging in acts of kindness toward other species, the very topic of 'speciesism' is hard to resist. Why are humans so uncomfortable giving sentient credit to nonhumans? All footage is property of Cristina Zenato and Kewin Lorensen except where Skyler shares his own clips.

"Shark Man Dan" Kicks off 'Shark Weeks'

5/8/2023

Comments

 
Underwater cinematographer and shark diver, Dan Abbott, joins Skyler Thomas on White Shark Video's Shark Cast to kick of this season of tiger shark themed shows.  

Kicking off this season of podcasts we opened up by having a little fun analyzing some rather hairy encounters with tiger sharks and divers.  Yes, we threw out that naughty phrase "shark attack" that tends to draw so much attention, but after all,  the clips we reviewed were originally called attacks.  After watching our analysis would you still consider them to be "attacks"?

Be sure to watch part 2, which premieres next week.

Two shark divers analyze tiger shark attacks in order to try to understand what went wrong and whether anything else could have been done differently.

Shark Night and the White Shark Cafe

2/20/2023

Comments

 
After the successful "shark night" at the unofficial White Shark Cafe in North Beach San Francisco, I've switched to selling my original shirt designs on T-Spring.  I gave away a few crates worth of shirts that night to promote the cafe and thus ran out of all physical inventory.
If popular demand requires it, I might start screen printing again, but until then please order on Spring.  And let me know which shirts you love the most.

Racism and Sharks?

6/5/2020

Comments

 
View this post on Instagram

This is a short clip from a longer video I made in 2018. While analyzing shark bite data I encountered accusations that bite incident numbers are actually higher than what gets reported due to a global conspiracy by shark huggers to hide the facts. Looking further into I ended up finding evidence that I believe to be contrary to that claim...even in apartheid-era South Africa the deaths of black people (who they didn't even bother to identify with names) were still recorded. So I guess black lives didn't matter enough to give them names but did matter enough to go in the record book against sharks.'Sharks, Racism, and Coverups' is a bonus material video for the larger project 'Victory Over Sharks', both of which can be viewed here:whitesharkvideo.com/racism #sharkbite #racism #coverups #blacklivesmatter #doblacklivesmatter #victoryoversharks #sharkbites #statistics #sharkbitestatistics #coverups #conspiracies #sharkculling #southafrica
