Wild West Of The High Seas Mar 25, 2024

Show notes

Did you know that pretty much anything goes in international waters? Past a certain point somewhere beyond the coast, national jurisdiction ends and the Wild West begins. There's no police force for the ocean, so with rampant piracy, smuggling and illegal fishing - who's in charge? Maritime lawyer Richard Caddell joins Hannah in the studio.

Also - we meet Steve Truluck, whose life changed when he started watching whales off the coast of Scotland. His work with Orca Watch brings that joy to other people.

Mountains Under The Waves Mar 18, 2024

Show notes

The world's longest mountain range is actually in the middle of the ocean - the mid-Atlantic ridge, at more than 40,000 miles long. But who knows about these mountains? How high are they? Where are they? What lives on them? Hannah is joined by South African actress and TV presenter Amanda Du Pont, who spent two weeks on a Greenpeace ship on a research expedition to Mount Vema in 2019. And she welcomes marine scientist Lucy Woodall back into the studio, who's led expeditions to seamounts all around the world.

Also - there's another update from the Arctic Sunrise en-route to the Galapagos Islands. They've made a stop-off at the ocean mountains near Galapagos.

Antarctica Mar 11, 2024

Show notes

Antarctica is one of the harshest environments you can imagine. Winds can reach 200mph and the lowest temperature ever recorded was -89 degrees Celsius. But the monochrome above the waves is matched by the explosion of colour beneath them. The Southern Ocean is home to more than 9000 species, many of which can only be found there. Hannah is joined by scientist Lucy Woodall, who led the first expedition to find Shackleton's ship Endurance, and Antarctic historian John Dudeney.

Also - meet Bhakti Sharma, the youngest person and the first Asian to complete a long-distance swim in all five oceans, the most recent being the Southern Ocean.

Whales Mar 04, 2024

Hannah's asking all the questions you ever wanted to know about whales. Did you know they have culture? She's joined by whale legend Hal Whitehead, whose close encounters with sperm whales and understanding of their culture has completely changed how we view these enormous animals.

Also - we've had an update from the team onboard the Arctic Sunrise, the research ship that's on its way to the Galapagos Islands.
