In the year 2020 divers have so many resources to inform them about their amount of remaining gas, however out-of-airs still happen. Why? Join Jamesy and Brando for this self-addressed stamped episode of TGDP to find the answers.

It’s 2020 and a new year for a new you. Many divers will start off the year with a fitness plan and a fresh awareness of their health. But what is the right fitness level for safe scuba diving? Well, sit back and listen as the two fittest scuba hunks on our show, who have no fitness accreditation to their name, talk to you about breathing, heart rates and yoga.

The boys sit down and have a rap about all the fun stuff and shenanigans from 2019. The highs, the lows, the good times and the bad. We remember our favorites and take a fun look at all our fans from around the world. Thank you to everyone who listened in 2019 and we look forward to next year.

What were you doing in January of 1992? Brando was playing volleyball, James was still in High School and our subjects of today’s show were diving in a river near Glasgow, Montana. This old story gets us thinking about old lessons that were supposed to be learned, but were they? Has the thinking or actions changed in the almost 30 years since?

Ok, now I realize that this could happen any day of the year not just Friday the 13th so the title is totally not accurate....or IS IT? Today is Friday the 13th and this could happen today and even in warm water.... so maybe it is pretty accurate. Actually, if we really think about it, this title should be changed to "An Anyday, Anywhere, Any temperature Water Diving Lesson"... but that sounds ridiculous and no one will listen to it. So we'll just call it "A Friday The 13th Cold Water Diving Lesson"... but with the added caveat that it could happen on any day and in any temperature water! Have a listen!

It's time for what has become a most treasured holiday tradition at the TGDP households around the globe, the annual Christmas Wishlist!! Have a listen as the boys review the eagerly awaited Christmas Wishlist from Scuba Diving Magazine's 2019 Holiday Gift Guide!

The 29th of November, 1966 was another horrendous day out on Lake Huron. Hurricane winds and towering waves crashing in from multiple directions took down the mighty ship of the Morrell, along with the lives of 28 of her 29 crew. Today the boys discuss the sinking of the ship in much greater detail and the survival of her one soul, Dennis Hale.

The boys start off this week catching up about Jamesy’s recent trip to Orlando for the dive industry DEMA show, all the cool people he met and where the real business takes place. Eventually they get into a story about the Daniel J. Morrell, a tragic shipwreck with one sole survivor from 1966 in Lake Huron.

Don't get left out in the cold. The boys discuss Drysuit diving and some of the different myths about using them.

Join your favorite dive buddies, the November Galiest Jamesy and the Ol’ Winter Warlock Brando for this look at the worst storm ever to hit the Great Lakes. In November of 1913, hurricane winds and winter blizzards took down a record number of ships on the Great Lakes, the most damage being done on Lake Huron.
