We’re thrilled to launch the very first Ocean Collaborations Reflections Episode - our new quarterly deep dive into ocean truths amid 2026’s chaos! Your hosts: Jan from Switzerland (almost 50, ocean newbie 😊) and Peter Neill (85-year ocean vet from the US 🗽).

Peter built the World Ocean Observatory from scratch decades ago, shifting museums from dusty past to urgent ocean future. Jan started his podcast in Feburary 2025 - now we’re talking below the surface about should-could-must collaboration action!

Thanks for listening! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

We tackle tough stuff and talk straight:

* Why ocean conferences repeat existing paradigms?

* ‘Paper’ Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) with zero enforcement?

* Wars bombing desalination plants? 😩

But we spark hope - relentless ocean literacy, ethical investing (Peter’s portfolio beats the market! 💰), and YOU 🫵 as the dove’s wings for peace (shoutout Camus 🕊️).

Frustrated by slow ocean impact change and the state of the (ocean) world?

Then LISTEN to the full audio podcast - your wings matter too!

Join our chat for real talk on transforming capitalism, water wars, and building coalitions - and don’t hesitate to share with us what reflection topics interest you for the next episode in July (when Jan is back from the Our Ocean Conference).
