The Dive Table

This week the guys speak with Lily and Arya, their instructors during their side mount course in Tulum, Mexico.  Lily and Arya are both instructors with Under the Jungle and while it seemed that they weren't big fans of having a microphone in front of them, they were both gracious and great sports about the whole process.  Nick and Jay inquired about their scuba beginnings as well as how they ended up at UTJ, not to mention more than a few, 'Fins in the Pool,' questions.

Money.  Is it the root of all evil, or the gateway to a scuba life?

Nick and Jay discuss what it might cost today to start your scuba journey.  They give a sneak peak into what they've each spent on scuba and discuss that while it might be "a lot" of money (perspective is needed in this episode), it's what they love to do so therefore justified.  Nick and Jay also discuss ways to save money between the type of equipment you can buy to learning how to maintain your own gear.

After 10 days in Mexico, your hosts are back to tell their tale.  

Spending over half of their time with a cave diving outfit called 'Under the Jungle,' Nick and Jay are now certified 'Expert Side-Mount' divers.  Nothing but high praise for 'Under the Jungle as Nick and Jay's discussion traverses from their very basic expectations of the class to their questionable antics aboard million-dollar yachts.

Nick and Jay have Mike Gault back for part 2 of his interview.  In this episode Mike delves into the philosophical side of scuba diving.  Humility and the removal of the ego should be focused on and can help you become a successful technical or cave diver. If you don't pay attention to these elements, you may not get the chance to learn from your mistakes.

Mike also lets us know about his personal business, CTX Hyperbaric Solutions, and the current exploration projects he's working on now.

To say that we've been excited to release this episode is quite the understatement.

The guys sat down with Mike Gault a few weeks ago to speak with him about how he was initially introduced into scuba diving and what led him into commercial, tech, and ultimately, cave diving.  Once a member of the famed WKPP (Woodville Karst Plain Project), Mike touches on his philosophy of scuba and what other project(s) keep him occupied now.
