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.

Special guest Eli Martinez shares his stories and footage of several amazing species, not just sharks.

Officially kicking of this season's podcast is special guest, Eli Martinez. Perhaps best known for his interactions with massive tiger sharks, Eli has branched out and spent considerable time getting to know a wide range of amazing species. You can join Eli on a wide variety of his adventures by going to SDMadventures.com. Be sure to check out some of my other videos with Eli Martinez shared on the end screen.

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.
