FROM THE BLOG
In late 2020 I did what I thought would be my final episode of this podcast. It is still available in the archives on this page. ...
I have been in the diving industry for over 30 years. I am a PADI Course Director, PADI Technical Diver Instructor Trainer, PADI Prism 2 Rebreather instructor, and a Hollis Prism 2 Rebreather Factory Certified Technician. I am also a Dad and my wife and kids dive with me regularly. I own and run many diving businesses including Divers Incorporated in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
I started this podcast in 2010 after being interviewed on another scuba podcast. Since then I have talked about my life as a scuba instructor and dive shop owner on a regular basis. In 2020 I took a break from podcasting and in 2023 brought it back as you see it today!
WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY
We're grateful and humbled to get these types of reviews. We couldn't ask for more from our listeners. Read what people exactly like you are saying about our podcast
A good insight into life from the perspective of a scuba professional! Though perhaps more relevant if you dive in the areas Rich Synowiec teaches and works in, there's a lot here to learn. The last few episodes of 2020 are a real insight into the challenges of running a dive business in one of the strangest years on record. Worth a listen if you're into scuba!
Great content from someone that really knows scuba diving! Rich dives a lot and works in the industry so he always has some great insight. Worthy of listening too if you have interest in scuba diving.
