DunkersPodcast
Cold water dunking boosts mood, builds resilience, and connects communities. With dopamine surges of up to 250%, (like a cold water cocaine high!) dunking offers natural energy, calm, and structure. From ocean swims to urban dips, dunking improves circulation, lifts spirits, and strengthens bonds. The DunkersPodcast shares these stories—funny, raw, and real—celebrating the power of cold water and connection. We chat with Dunkers both locally and afar, leaving questions for the next, creating a chain of curiosity and continuity that reflects the interconnected nature of the community. Join us

Welcome back to the Dunkers Podcast — the only place where plunging into frigid water counts as self-care, and talking complete nonsense with a straight face is practically a mental health strategy.
Today’s guest is a man of many titles — Julian Turner. If there were a LinkedIn Olympics, he’d have taken gold, silver, and probably restructured the medal system while he was at it. CEO, board mentor, inventor, product innovator, and th...

Picture this: a gang of Abersoch Dunkers — otherwise sensible humans — decide to swim from West Island (yes, the Bear Grylls’ one) all the way back to our beloved beach huts on Main Beach. That’s right — an open water challenge across tides, jellyfish, and questionable decisions.
Why?...Blame Andy Teague; he inspired (cajoled) a crew of brave souls into doing it. And DunkersPodcast...well we’re celebrating this awesome feat and the ...
This week on the Dunkers Podcast, we dive feet first into the fascinating world of Nigel and Morag — Nigel, is a foot whisperer of the highest order and Morag; calm, collected… and secretly the Sherlock Holmes of cut-price luxury getaways.

Meet our affectionally known 'Mad-Elaine'—the purveyor of 8:15 a.m. screams, belly laughs, and boundless energy.
