This week the boys are back with Kenneth Donald and his Admiralty Experimental Diving Unit. At 30 years old and knowing virtually nothing about diving underwater, he was given carte blanche authority to do whatever he wanted. The most important mission, a cool name.

This week the boys continue their celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Summer blockbuster movie "Jaws"!!

This week the boys dive into Dave Shaw’s last dive. Risking your own life to do a world record dive is not as simple as it may seem, and it involves the lives and safety of many others. A team of divers, support divers, safety teams, medical team, a surface team. All of these need to come together, and all of them are at risk. But hey, That’s Diving.
