Yep, after threatening to do one for a good half a year, I’ve finally scraped all my ideas into a single, neatly wrapped, podcast called Radio Isopod. It features the adventures of a misfit crew of mad scientists and other ship members aboard the submarine laboratory, the S.S. Isopod. The hosts of the podcast are [...]
This shot was taking during the second dive of a boat trip. Unfortunately I was getting over a cold I had acquired midweek and just wasn’t able to equalize past ten feet. I gave up on the dive and opted for snorkeling instead.
This location, just off of Wailea Point in Maui, was fairly shallow (somewhere [...]
Isn’t that water gorgeous?
These are just a couple of raccoon butterfly fish I happened upon at Airport Beach Reef (a.k.a. Kahekili Beach) in Maui. Despite the appearance of that first shot, there were a lot of fish hanging out here. In fact, the largest schools I saw all week were during this dive. It’s amazing [...]

This was one of the dive sites we hit. The dotted line indicates our dive path (dark blue for reef, and light blue for sand). This dive conisted of pretty nice reef (in good condition) with lots of contour. The best parts of the dive were the two turtles just chilling underwater and the [...]
Each of these cute little buggers were seen all over the wonderful coral reefs of Maui. A couple of the humuhumu-nukunuku-apua’a (yes, after seeing enough of these guys you do eventually learn their name) tried to scare me away from their territory (or nest). Thinking about it still makes me smile. Although, the humuhumu-nukunuku-apua’a probably [...]
