Welcome to The Dive Shack


We decided to start this podcast to tell the stories of our brothers and sisters under the sea. We love reminiscing about past jobs, projects, and sharing information to the young divers coming up. 

This is also a great show for those curious about becoming a commercial diver or have ever wondered what we do. We break down the industry to bring greater awareness to the triumphs and struggle of the working diver!
