Into The Planet Podcast

Jill travels to Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada for advanced commercial vessel boat training and gets in the dunk tank. Robert and Jill share a bit about their recent cave diving trip to Florida, USA. And they discuss complacency and normalization of deviance regarding Covid-19 precautions. All this, and pens in the ears on this episode!

After a long hiatus, we are travelling to dive and shoot underwater videos again! JIll shares travel tips and tricks she's learned from a long career flying around the world with lots of photo, video, and scuba diving gear.

Jill and Robert discuss cold weather scuba diving tips, and what to wear under your dry suit. Landslides and floods in Western Canada remind us that there is more to Climate Change than rising sea levels and melting glaciers. A look at the Covid passport situation.

It is official: Jill Heinerth is a legend. We share her induction to the Mississauga Legend's Row where she is in great company with fellow inductee and Rock & Roll pioneer Ronnie Hawkins and the world's greatest mayor Hazel McCallion. Robert is still failing miserably at his How to be a Canadian tests, and the U.S./Canada border is now officially open!

Jill travels for the first time in 18 months to British Columbia to present a lecture at the University of Victoria and shares her airport experiences and BC Hot Tub Boating. Robert practices speaking Canadian but still has a long way to go.
