About this episode
What do you do with sparks of curiosity? Susan Casey follows many of them into full immersion: jet skiing down the face of a Pe'ahi set wave with Laird Hamilton, into the lightless innerspace of the deep marine biosphere via submersible, and straight to the ruins of forgotten ancient cultures to ascertain truth and significance for herself --- while taking readers along for the ride. Susan Casey , a self-proclaimed 'stealth activist,' is the author of three New York Times bestselling books including The Wave: In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean , The Devil’s Teeth: A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America’s Great White Sharks , and Voices in the Ocean: A Journey Into the Wild and Haunting World of Dolphins . Susan was the creative director for Outside Magazine, and served as editor in chief for both Sports Illustrated Women and O, The Oprah Magazine, as well as being editor at large across all of Time Inc.’s magazine titles. Susan is one of our culture's most compelling advocates for marvelling with and protecting our oceans. ..... Listen with Lauren L.
