    Episode 227 Rod Macdonald Author & Shipwreck Explorer
    2026/05/18

    In this episode, we chat with Rod Macdonald. Rod is an internationally renowned Scottish shipwreck explorer, undersea adventurer, maritime historian, TV personality and best-selling diving author with 13 books about shipwrecks and naval history, the culmination of a lifetime of diving. His beautifully illustrated books are the internationally accepted definitive guides to many world-famous dive locations. He is the author of Dive Scapa Flow, covering the German WWI High Seas Fleet shipwrecks scuttled in Scapa in 1919, Dive Truk Lagoon – the Japanese WWII Pacific shipwrecks, covering the 40 Japanese ships sent to the bottom of the Truk lagoon in Micronesia in February 1944 during a daring 2-day fast carrier raid by U.S. Task Force 58 aircraft codenamed Operation HAILSTONE. He is also the author of Dive Palau – the shipwrecks, the sunken legacy of the follow up Task Force 58 raid, Operation DESECRATE 1, just six weeks later – and a number of naval history books. Rod regularly appears on TV documetaries as a wreck expert, and as a patron of the British & Irleand Chapter of the Explorers Club of New York and has led a number of high profile Explorers Club flagged expeditions to survey shipwrecks around the world. He dived the feared Corryvreckan Whirlpool on the west coast of Scotland!

  • Episode 226 Dan Frolec Author of "The Cave"

    Episode 226 Dan Frolec Author of "The Cave"
    2026/05/04

    In this episode, we chat with Dan Frolec — diver, adventurer, entrepreneur, and author of The Cave, a gripping true story that blends scuba diving with real-life tragedy and injustice.

    Dan has been diving for over 30 years, exploring oceans across the globe. But one trip in 2002 to Croatia changed everything. What began as a routine sailing and diving holiday turned into a nightmare when a fellow diver was lost in an underwater cave. Soon after, Dan and a friend were falsely accused of murder and imprisoned, forced to fight for their freedom against shocking claims.

    Dan shares the story behind The Cave, the emotional toll of the incident, and how he found the strength to keep going.

    Beyond the book, we also dive into Dan's life journey — from a high-level corporate career in Prague to quitting it all and moving to Bali for a different way of life. Today, he runs his own advisory business, created a fitness programme, and continues to pursue his love for diving, freediving, and adventure.

    A powerful episode about resilience, truth, and the unexpected paths life can take.
