Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
No, hello there, don't be alarmed.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
We're just referring your listening device for Scuba Radio, the
world's first radio show devoted to diving.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
We do this, of course, by fielding your radio with water.
We're proficient. Thanks to me.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
You won't even get wet. You see, I've crammed every
appetitive my body into the cracks and crevices of your radio.
By the way, don't touch your on off knob. That's
a very sensitive area. Anyway, I should remind you. We
believe in the buddy system, just like diving. So don't
listen alone. Called your buddy and tell them that scuba
radio is about to be given.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
We're going to start a new life under the sea.

Speaker 4 (00:40):
Am I gonna drown? Of course not.

Speaker 5 (00:43):
Just stay calm and let the gentle currents relecture every muscle.

Speaker 6 (00:49):
Under the Just get warmer.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
No, no, heg you take done.

Speaker 6 (00:55):
Rustations under the sea.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Where the hell are.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
No, here's your dive guy for Scuba Radio, Greg the
Dive Master.

Speaker 6 (01:07):
And welcome down for two of the world's first radio
show devoted to diving, otherwise known as The Good the
Deuce right number two.

Speaker 5 (01:21):
Okay, so it like that was a special Halloween, douche.

Speaker 6 (01:26):
I don't know what you're talking about. What I just did.
It's a Scuba Radio Halloween Spectacular hour two right, good,
ok I'm confused. I'm just going to ignore.

Speaker 4 (01:44):
That was the perfect Halloween. What are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (01:47):
That was that was very That was very Halloween.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
Do it again. It was perfect.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
No, that's enough. We've had enough. Mind Okay, that's that's
too much. That was one too many. Okay. Any who,
it is Halloween season and it is time to reflect
on some of the scariest dives that you could do

(02:13):
as a scuba diver. And whether you go out on
Halloween Friday or you just you know, participating underwater pumpkin
carving contest, or you give me googly eyes like Cox
Johnson is right now that you can see on YouTube,
Facebook Live and Twitch. Scoo boo, dude, you're making things
very awkward Scooboo Radio. All right. Obviously, somebody's helped themselves

(02:40):
to the liquor cabinet, so it is what it is.
But when it comes to scary dives, there's quite a
few options available. I think, just for me, I'll just
start it by just saying I think the scariest type
of dive you can do is a wreck dive because
they always have that kind of foreboding type of vibe too.
When you're cruising up to a wreck and if you

(03:03):
get into it a little bit, you know, penetrate the
wreck tad and you get into like a semi enclosed environment,
those are kind of creepy. What about a cave, Well,
that was going to be my second, but I think shipwrecks,
artificial reefs just have that foreboding vibe to them. I mean,

(03:23):
I agree a cave. You know, cave dives are are
very similar in that sense. Like you go to a
place like Devil's Den in Florida. That place is creepy
just walking down to the water with all the moss
hanging from the opening. I mean, it's not called Devil's
Den for nothing. I mean it looks a little creepy.

(03:43):
I mean you should.

Speaker 7 (03:45):
I think you should make all your shipwreck dives at
night with a bad flesh light, one that would like
come on then cut out.

Speaker 6 (03:54):
Yeah, okay, all right, So equipment malfunctions adds to the beyond.
So what do you think they're Kenny Sweetwater Scuba, you've
been to Devil's Den quite a bit with me on
that one, that particular place.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
I mean, sure, should I say, yes.

Speaker 6 (04:12):
You can say whatever you want.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
You know what creeps me out are lakes, lakes that
people don't dive in, like just going in one we
try to look for stuff.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
What about rock corries.

Speaker 6 (04:24):
Well, let's focus on lakes lake. Yeah, but but but
why because they're all mucky on the bottom or what
do you mean exactly? Dead trees?

Speaker 3 (04:34):
Yes, the dead trees. It looks like, you know, we
have the haunted like house with the foggy graveyard out right,
and you can barely they're like that, and they're green,
you know, they're they're they're.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
Just yeah, yeah, it's a goody.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
They reach out and snag you.

Speaker 6 (04:54):
Okay, all right, that's that's pretty sight.

Speaker 8 (04:58):
I got a local lake has a cemetery at the bottom.

Speaker 6 (05:01):
Of it, a cemetry. Oh there you go. Now we're
not symmetry. Symmetry, I think.

Speaker 9 (05:07):
So cemeterymetry.

Speaker 8 (05:11):
Did not say what's symmetrical about it?

Speaker 6 (05:17):
I love Jerry, I really do.

Speaker 8 (05:20):
I don't see how you got symmetry out of cemetery.

Speaker 6 (05:24):
Yeah, cemetery, that's what it's like. The first five letters yes,
but that's fine. So I mean, but what what are
you saying? A cemetery? Yeah, remind you of a lake
or what they said there was.

Speaker 5 (05:38):
A cemetery in the bottom of the line.

Speaker 9 (05:40):
Yeah, there are gravestones.

Speaker 8 (05:43):
There used to be a town that when they when
they made the lake, they they just covered up the town.
They supposedly got all the bodies out and.

Speaker 6 (05:55):
Reburied the supposed there.

Speaker 8 (05:58):
But when the lake started churning and move and a
couple of the caskets floated to the surface.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
He he just said, the scariest dive of all time.

Speaker 6 (06:11):
So hey, coffin joined you on your you know, on
your surface interval or yeah that happened. Okay, Well have
you dove that lake?

Speaker 9 (06:24):
I dove it all the time?

Speaker 6 (06:26):
Really Okay, there is actually.

Speaker 8 (06:29):
A book wrote about a fictional book called Dona the
Vampire or non fictional book the Vampires.

Speaker 6 (06:37):
Hey, the only good thing is, you know zombies are
are you know, the living dead don't know how to swim?
Well that's documented.

Speaker 5 (06:47):
What if it's a zombie that used to be a
diver when they were alive, you just you forget that
they don't know how to swim.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
You forget your skill.

Speaker 7 (06:56):
Pirates of the Caribbean.

Speaker 6 (06:58):
They didn't swim. They walked along the autumn. They weren't swimmers. Okay, yeah,
they'll still get you. Well, they'll get if you go
down and you know, hanging at the butt. But you
can outswim them.

Speaker 7 (07:08):
They just reach up and grab your ankle.

Speaker 6 (07:10):
That's why I've always said that, you know, the zombie
your zombie apocalypse escape vehicle is always a boat. Might
be the die boat, I'm sure fuel Well yeah, but
if you're in then what do you do? If you're
in open water, you got nothing to worry about. They
can't they can't you eventually without a paddle, just stay afloat,

(07:34):
you know, until zombies, you know, die off or whatever.
Zombies they're already dead.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
Well, it might be a very long time.

Speaker 6 (07:42):
Greg, Water World, did you see that movie? No, okay,
well there weren't zombies, I know, but I'm just saying
you'd have to live on the water to stay away
from the zombies.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
I think any scary dive would be one where.

Speaker 6 (07:57):
Vinnie's wearing his red Oh my gosh, see I freaked out, buddy.
Wow that g It's that really got a response there, Vinnie.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
I have a scary story.

Speaker 6 (08:21):
Oh you do what? I hopefully had something to do
with a scuba diving.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Oh it was, I was, yeah, it's about me.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
Okay, what happened? What do you do?

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Well?

Speaker 6 (08:32):
You wore your red spanin in my.

Speaker 10 (08:34):
In my younger days, I did a lot of diving
off the coast of California, especially around the Los Angeles
County here he is, and and during lobster season, I
couldn't get my buddy but to go with me. He
was teaching night school, so I'd head out. I had
a Boston Whaler and I would head out out out

(08:58):
to the end of the breakwater out, you know.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
About a mile off the water.

Speaker 10 (09:06):
I dropped anchor and night by myself. Was back in
the days when I had a big, gigantic flash light,
like they're either a huge and heavy to carry in.

Speaker 6 (09:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (09:16):
Yeah, it was just you know, so I was going
along the walls looking for and you can only see
maybe two to three feet in front of you at
the most, and it's very hazy. You gotta go slow,
and you gotta and you never know. There's all sorts
of snag hazards you can get into. And a couple
of times I got caught, and I had to be

(09:36):
very careful and backed out. I got got There's lots
of debris and stuff.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
In the harbor.

Speaker 6 (09:42):
Oh my god, touch crazy. Sorry, that's a cliffhanger right there.
We're gonna have to find out what happened to Vin
and two things did he live?

Started at All. Listen as Mike deals with submarines, kidnapping,
betrayal and more.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
He didn't even have fins or a mask to let
him see in the water. He was going to be
slow and blind.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
If they weren't for the float.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
He knew there would be no way he would ever
make it to the surface.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Your surface interval is complete. You are now clear to
dive with Scuba Radio, the world's first radio show devoted
to diving.

Speaker 6 (12:28):
Dive, Dive, Dive.

Speaker 10 (12:34):
Truly looks beneath the scene, but mystery awaits.

Speaker 6 (12:45):
This is the world's first radio show devoted to diving.
I am going to dive master Man. We were left
on a cliff, then he was diving. This was off
the coast of California, Boston Whaler. He's a uh, diving
through the through through the is there kelp and stuff?
Is it given that kind of foreboding vibe there? Or

(13:09):
and we'll know if Annie turns on his mic. He
was solo, right, Were you solo diving? Diving? Yes? He was, Okay, Yeah,
Kenny's actually typing on the story out as we speak.
I can hear him send help. Yes, that's fine, but uh,
and we'll get the rest of the story though. If

(13:31):
if Vinnie turns his mic on and you know, we
left it. I kind of left it on a cliffhanger, because,
you know, are we really speaking to a live Vinnie
two Tanks or is this the the zombie version? You know,
that would explain a lot with Vinnie.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
No, it's me.

Speaker 6 (13:46):
It issue, okay, okay, you're alive, breathing human being.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
It's so it's pretty dark and scary.

Speaker 10 (13:53):
And I was coming along and all of a sudden
I saw three or three huge fish right in front
of me.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
I mean they were gigantic, and I just freaked and
I backed away.

Speaker 10 (14:05):
And but in the midst of that, because if the
water so silty, I kicked up a little a little bit.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Of the sand on the bottom.

Speaker 6 (14:10):
I stops there right.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
And then when it cleared, I couldn't see him anymore.

Speaker 10 (14:15):
And it's it's just it just scared me to death
out of I didn't know anything like that was could
be in the harbor. So the next day I was
talking to a bunch of guys and I found out
there's a lot of a lot of giant sea bass
will we'll sleep will sleep in the sand near the
near the breakwater wall, and they were huge.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
I didn't realize they could get that big. And at night,
being that close at all, it just scared me.

Speaker 6 (14:40):
So it just kind of startled you.

Speaker 5 (14:42):
Yeah, yeah, so so he panicked and picked up silty.

Speaker 4 (14:48):
The water's already really dirty basically regularly.

Speaker 6 (14:58):
Wh your wet suit.

Speaker 4 (15:01):
That scared me. Now, it was just you know, being
at night and stuff by yourself.

Speaker 6 (15:04):
You know, why would he he ping his weta? That's silly,
he does it.

Speaker 10 (15:11):
I mean, I don't even I don't even I don't
even I don't even pee in my cabin, but I
stay on board book.

Speaker 6 (15:18):
All right, we'll leave that.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
I don't want to know more than that.

Speaker 6 (15:22):
Talk about a nightmare. Uh ah, that's pretty scary. That
is I think scarier though, if.

Speaker 4 (15:33):
You stopped through my eyes, you would say it was
pretty scary.

Speaker 5 (15:35):
Yes, you know, all right, dead bodies versus sea bass.

Speaker 6 (15:39):
Yeah, I think we do have the tape of a
Vinnie seeing the giant sea bass. There he is, yeah,
see wow, screaming. Okay, Well, so that you know, Vinni's
had some scary dive experiences.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
I've had a lot of dives of various types.

Speaker 6 (16:00):
Yeah. So, but as far as you know, the the
atmosphere was just the silt kind of freaks out right.

Speaker 10 (16:08):
Well, the night, the dark, the silt and all the
debris and you know, there's all kinds of debris. You
can get tangled and you got to be very careful.
It's hard to do it during the daytime. A little
one do it at night.

Speaker 6 (16:17):
But all right, well, Jerry, I'm a real man, Jerry
the diver guy dives with dead people. So that's pretty
that's pretty spooky. I think wreck dives have the potential
to be the spookiest thing. And you know, and actually,
you know, during this time of year, a lot of
dive operators will do these underwater haunted dives, and usually
they are wrecks. I mean they'll put like glow sticks

(16:40):
and some mannequins and attach them to a wreck and
have them floating in mid you know, because it kind
of lends itself to kind of like a haunted wreck
got ship kind of thing underwater. But I get like
the cave dive stuff. We talk about Devil's Den, which Kenny,
I don't think he bought that. You like Devil's Den? Right?

(17:00):
Is that a fair assumption or no?

Speaker 3 (17:03):
I mean, you know, when you teach around here, you
go there a lot, right, Yeah, so.

Speaker 6 (17:10):
It's uh, spookiness. Yeah, but if your first time it's
pretty on the top, well you could look at it
like that too, but you know it's called Devil's Dead.

Speaker 9 (17:19):
Hello, well you just sweel in a circle.

Speaker 6 (17:23):
Greg, Well that's true, but it looks kind of spooky.
I mean, yes, Casey, the tobacco nut.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
Have they have they modified, They built a whole nother
section there for the beginning divers to initially get wet things.
Are they doing anything halloweeny there?

Speaker 6 (17:40):
Yeah they should. I don't know.

Speaker 7 (17:42):
I mean, I don't bet that'd be a great uh
Halloween spary dive area.

Speaker 6 (17:49):
Right, Yeah, I just remember that. I mean it's been
many years since I've been there, but you know, just
the pictures, you know, it can have that kind of
spooky look to if you if you go there and
there's nobody there, that's when it's spooky. Yeah. If you
go there and there's a bunch of divers all around, well, okay,
my eynds are good. The cave zombies aren't gonna get me.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
We did a zombie dive there actually back in the
shop days.

Speaker 6 (18:14):
Ah see.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
That's where we did it. Yeah, in the in the
actual Devil's Din, not that side pool.

Speaker 6 (18:20):
Well, that makes sense. That's why I said, I've always
thought that place was a little foreboding and that kind
of thing. But you know, any cave system can be,
you know, kind of creepy in that sense. I agree,
But you know, I can see lakes being a thing too,
But I still go back to the uh, to the
to the rex. I mean, what about you, Kate c

(18:42):
j cok Johnson. Well, that's scary just saying it, but uh,
but I mean you think just a cave system would
be the most thing or the most spookiest kind of
dive for you? Could be? Could be or not?

Speaker 5 (18:58):
Because I'm that much more focused in paying attention.

Speaker 6 (19:02):
Yeah, you just focus on what's underwater. Nothing ever freaks
you out? Your cock Johnson, trying not to die. Conk
Johnson's your name and diving your game. What's gonna spook
Conk Johnson? Nothing? A dead body would freak me out.
Dead body, dead body might be the line for you,
That might be the freshold would start. If you see
a dead body, you'd you'd start to get a little.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
What the hey, all.

Speaker 6 (19:29):
Right, well we don't want to see those regardless, But yeah,
I mean.

Speaker 5 (19:35):
What you could solve a well, solve a you know,
solve an open case, solve a crime, and then then
you get the then you get like a colin from
the mayor or something, and then maybe maybe you're in
a parade.

Speaker 6 (19:49):
Okay, what's scary?

Speaker 7 (19:51):
Having that happened from the Sheriff's department, They say, go
dive over here because our team's busy and dragging this
person out of there?

Speaker 6 (19:59):
Right? What scary? On the local news and they go,
what's skill? Do you get? Well? Maybe? But but what's
scary are finding, like, you know, coming across a dead
body or skeleton or something, or or diving with Vinnie
and having him as you're looking at a nice coral head,
taking a picture of him float down in front of

(20:20):
you in his red.

Speaker 5 (20:20):
Spin See that depends on what he's wearing red spank.
Because I've dove with him before and it wasn't scary.
Well he did, he wasn't wearing He didn't abuse you
like that. Yeah, But now that I put that mental.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
Like up and behind me, you threw up a little
in your mouth, didn't that? I tried to think about it? Okay?
Too late? Too late or coming up stay closem as

(21:00):

comes from the top down at Explorer Ventures livery Boards.

SCOO would be.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
Prepared a ring for guy.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Your surface interval is complete. You are now clear to
dive with Scuba Radio, the world's first radio show devoted
to diving.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
Dive, dive, dive. It is duntin wells, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 6 (22:33):
That grinning, glowing, globular invada of your living room is.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
An inhabitant of the punkin patch.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
And if your doorbell rings and nobody's there, that was
no Martian and Halloween.

Speaker 6 (22:44):
This is the world's first radio show devoted to diving
almost on Halloween. It is the Scuba Radio Halloweeny Spootacular,
or addition in of the big show, we're talking about
scary dives as we do, I think well. Cork Johnson

(23:08):
was asking about Casey the Tobacco Nuts scariest scuba dive
because he didn't think we had gotten that yet. Did
we already cover you or do you have one to
add or no, Casey, I.

Speaker 7 (23:23):
Haven't really been on a scary Halloween dive in a while,
since since I did the Haunted Halloween Graveyard.

Speaker 6 (23:31):
Yeah, easily spooked. Huh. Yeah, and you did that in
a lake, right, that was in a lake. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (23:38):
Yeah, I had the haunted graveyard out there behind my
dive shop.

Speaker 6 (23:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (23:43):
I often wonder not the shop's gone.

Speaker 7 (23:45):
If anybody ever bothered to bring up all the dead
mannequins and skulls.

Speaker 6 (23:50):
But you left him in the lake. Well yeah, oh
that's not very environmentally sensitive.

Speaker 7 (23:58):
Well they probably get a call low water bodies and things.

Speaker 6 (24:02):
But okay, there's that. Well I don't know. I mean,
I just think, I mean, well, let me throw this
out to the crew. Have any of you ever done
the underwater pumpkin carving thing?

Speaker 4 (24:17):
No?

Speaker 6 (24:17):
Negative, Kenny, you've done that.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
I think if you run a dive shop, that's like
a must passage.

Speaker 6 (24:25):
Yeah. Yeah, it's the underwater haunted dive and or underwater
pumpkin carving. Yes, and I've seen plenty of videos. I
haven't participated myself in that activity, but it is.

Speaker 5 (24:38):
Do you do with the seeds and the.

Speaker 6 (24:40):
Go you take the go out? Yeah, you feed it
to the fish. It's they dig that.

Speaker 9 (24:44):
They like it all the time.

Speaker 6 (24:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
We even do it at the aquarium sometimes.

Speaker 6 (24:51):
Really do it in at Epcot. Do you. Yeah they have,
they have haven't done it recently, but but yeah, the
fish like that st be maybe yeah there every day.

Speaker 3 (25:00):
I missed it sometimes.

Speaker 6 (25:01):
Well, but but they do it there too. I mean,
you know, it's a seasonal thing.

Speaker 7 (25:06):
I never did it at the shop for fear of
somebody with a sharp object and a slippery pumpkin in
the dark shark.

Speaker 6 (25:14):
Uh sharp object would be your dive knife. That lends
itself to pumpkin carving, doesn't it.

Speaker 7 (25:21):
Well, it also lends yourself to.

Speaker 6 (25:23):
Uh stabbing somebody in achilles heel.

Speaker 9 (25:27):
What would you dark casey.

Speaker 7 (25:30):
Because you're supposed to be scary, it's more foreboding, puts.

Speaker 6 (25:37):
Their flashlights on you.

Speaker 9 (25:39):
You go to carve a pumpkin.

Speaker 6 (25:42):
All right? And the by the way, Kenny, when you
did that, was it like the best pumpkin carver like design?
Or was there a timed thing? Because I've seen both, right, I.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
Mean there's usually a time limit and then there's voting.

Speaker 6 (25:56):
Okay, gotcha, all right. Here's the other thing. I say
this every year, and no one ever sends me pictures
of this, but I hear they've done it, and that's
take their old wetsuits, fill them full of dead leaves
and create like corpses, headless corpses out in the yard.

(26:16):
And I was like, hey, that's a great idea newspaper.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
Greg's got plenty of wetsuits from yours of diving.

Speaker 6 (26:23):
Yes, I just don't have plenty of I don't have
plenty of leaves. That's my problem. I have a lot
of leaves in my yard. Yeah, you got to go
to one of these places, you know, up north where well,
I don't you know. You can do stuff in Florida,
but up north the folks who got plenty of leaves
right now, they can do that. And then you know,

(26:45):
throw a little ketchup on the on the neck ring
there and it looks like you decapitated somebody and set
it in the set it in the yard and let
the move give. Yeah, I agree with God. God got
to get the ketchup on it.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
You can just throw them away.

Speaker 6 (27:04):
I mean, well you could, or you just wash them off.
It's just ketch up or lick it off if you
let ketchup. But I don't know what. Yeah, I mean,
you don't have to go.

Speaker 7 (27:16):
I can just see Greg in his garage glancing around
to see if his wife's watching and then licking the
ketchup off the collar.

Speaker 6 (27:25):
Well maybe you just take take one of those skulls
and set it up right, like, have it setting up
against a tree and just set the skull on top
of the website. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Vinnie forgets it. I'm
a genius something.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
Yeah, you pretty good, thank you.

Speaker 8 (27:41):
But why don't you just put the skeleton in the
wet suit and be done with it.

Speaker 6 (27:45):
Well, you could do that too, I guess that's that
would be another worker wound. Be the sensible thing to do. Well,
I mean, yeah, you could do that, but I'm just
saying you can get creative with your scuba gear.

Speaker 9 (27:56):
I would never do anything suitable around here anyway.

Speaker 6 (27:59):
Well, that that is true.

Speaker 4 (28:01):
I mean, uh, me and we go on a lot
of dive trips together. They're sensible.

Speaker 9 (28:05):
Yeah yeah, I mean that's the same thing to do.

Speaker 6 (28:09):
Well, if you got like a Mark five helmet, that's
what you really want, is the Mark five helmet, and
you do the whole uh you know, historical diving society
type of thing, or you know the Scooby Do Scooby
Doo dive monster.

Speaker 9 (28:24):
They would be sitting on a man old brig Oh no, no.

Speaker 6 (28:28):
Yeah, the whole suit is intelligent. No, no, no, yeah, you
have the whole suit and you sit there on the
porch stoic. Still they can't see inside, maybe have it
blacked out, and then you know they want they sit
down next to you, take a picture, and then you
jump up and scare them. But Jesus out of them. Oh,

(28:49):
I've been there, done that. Yeah, that's that's another. I mean,
I don't know if it would would it looks spooky
enough if you just did that with open circuit scuba.
I mean maybe you'd have to do something to make
your your gear to look more.

Speaker 7 (29:03):
Is that why the children in your neighborhood have that
warrant out for you?

Speaker 6 (29:08):
No, there's no warrant. I don't know, Greg, that's why
they egged his house.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
No, no, no, Greg, you might not need too much
extra than your mask because you're pretty pale, so thank you.

Speaker 6 (29:20):
You may look like No, I'm kind of a ghost.
I'm kind of a legend in my neighborhood, by the way,
because I bet you are.

Speaker 7 (29:28):
Oh, Greg, stay away from there.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
You know, with all the audio gear.

Speaker 4 (29:35):
I have, he sits in his garage all day.

Speaker 6 (29:38):
Yeah, I'll set up speakers and stuff, and I'll I'll
do that. Kids get off my lord like welcome and
you know, and I'll scare the crap out of them
when they get up close to the candy. And uh yeah,
I've kind of gained a reputation as the cool the
cool house, and you're gool gool the cool.

Speaker 10 (30:00):
No, it's a house where you can go as a
kid and possibly get scared, and everybody warns you.

Speaker 4 (30:04):
About it, so you want to go to it.

Speaker 10 (30:06):
Everybody goes in the neighborhood, goes to your house with
little kids, and they're right.

Speaker 6 (30:09):
They're thoroughly disappointed now because I don't do that.

Speaker 4 (30:12):
Never, Oh, I thought you still did it.

Speaker 6 (30:15):
I screw them kids.

Speaker 13 (30:17):
Then you how many trig traders do you get at
your house?

Speaker 6 (30:20):
Yeah? What about that?

Speaker 4 (30:21):
I don't know because I locked the doors because I'm
a praise.

Speaker 13 (30:25):
Then he's just cheap candy.

Speaker 6 (30:28):
Really, you don't you don't give out candy.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
Well, I could tell you, I could tell you a
scary story.

Speaker 6 (30:34):
Why, oh god, another one.

Speaker 4 (30:37):
Well, it's scared the hell out of me.

Speaker 6 (30:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (30:40):
I just bought I just finally bought a house, you know,
And I said, well, I'll be sociable and I'll, you know,
even though I don't have a family, no kids, and
you know, I'll give got candy.

Speaker 6 (30:50):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
So I did it and and and and it was good.
Towards the end of the evening.

Speaker 10 (31:00):
Uh, I was just getting ready to shut the lights
off and the door knocks them and I open it
up and there's like five adults.

Speaker 4 (31:06):
Trick or treating in front of me. And they were
and they were.

Speaker 10 (31:12):
And they were all covered from the top of the
head you couldn't see their face.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
It freaked me out. It scared the hell.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
Out of me.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
Oh people, did you know?

Speaker 4 (31:20):
Yeah, I'm never going to do Halloween again. And so
I always just not do it anymore.

Speaker 13 (31:24):
Wow, Vinny wasn't Vinnie was in danger of dying.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
Let me get this straight.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
You got to act like you're not scared that you're going,
Oh what are you supposed to be?

Speaker 6 (31:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (31:32):
What's cool?

Speaker 6 (31:33):
Are you doing here in the hood? All right? So
I'm very confused. People knocked on the door and they
were holloweople and there were people there, and it scared
him to death. And he's never done it because they
were adults. Okay, Wow, that's spooky. More coming up.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
He's the worldwide scuba radio network. Scot would.

Speaker 6 (32:12):
Scooby would be.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
Prepared a ring for Guy.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Your surface interval is complete. You are now clear to
dive with Scuba Radio Radio, the world's first radio show
devoted to diving.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
Dive, Dive, Dive, didn't do anything for Halloween? What's the time?
Spooky time? What's the time? Spooky time? What's the time?
Spooky time? It's Halloween. Oh, shut up, shirk, it's spooky time.
Get you way off of this.

Speaker 6 (32:48):
It's Halloween.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Like that story.

Speaker 6 (32:52):
It's spooky time, spooky time, spooky time. Wow, that is spooky.
This is the world's first radio show devoted to diving.
Scuba Radio's Halloweeny Spooctacular. And just in the nick of
time to wrap things up today, we got the awkward

(33:13):
Gypsy with us. And I know she has done some
scary dives, because well Vinnie has been her dive Boddy
many times on trips in the past, and that that
alone would be some of the scariest diving. I think
anybody on the planet could experience that. Just my two cents.
But what do you think, Brittany, do you have I mean,

(33:36):
I say, reck dives are spooky. Kyle Johnson's been thrown
around like cave dives. Oh I have a good one,
Kenny says Lake, what about you? Yeah, I've got a.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Good one one. Though.

Speaker 14 (33:51):
The first thing that pumped into my head about being
scary was Vinnie's red spanks.

Speaker 6 (33:55):
Yes, oh oh those been brought up many times. Yes, okay, good.

Speaker 13 (34:00):
An actual real one. Remember this time that you were
behind me.

Speaker 14 (34:03):
We were in a cave in the Glapagos, and I
turned my light off because I like it to be dark,
and but he didn't go with us because he almost
died at that point.

Speaker 13 (34:14):
But it was just you and I.

Speaker 14 (34:15):
So something to grab my fin Remember, I turned around
and I was like, you know, I.

Speaker 13 (34:21):
Did the WTF symbol to you, like leave me alone?

Speaker 6 (34:24):
What are you doing?

Speaker 13 (34:24):
Touch me?

Speaker 14 (34:25):
And and you're like, oh no. And then I like
shine my leg like kind of like near you like
what that? And then again the same thing happened well
on my fin And but you were trying to tell.

Speaker 13 (34:35):
Me something, but I didn't understand what you were trying.

Speaker 6 (34:38):
I was filming, I was I had a go pro
and I was filming, So what happened?

Speaker 14 (34:43):
And I had no idea? I thought it was you.
You were trying to explain to me, but we didn't
know the hand signal for this particular creature. And finally
when I spun around, guess what was right in my face?

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Sea lion?

Speaker 6 (34:56):
Yeah lion was fin Yeah, yeah, and I actually got
I got it on video, but it was coming up
and it was it was another video I still haven't seen.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (35:09):
Yeah, there's a lot of videos.

Speaker 6 (35:12):
You'll never see.

Speaker 5 (35:13):
The slowest editor ever business and yeah, I.

Speaker 6 (35:18):
Don't have time for this nonsense.

Speaker 7 (35:21):
Your front yard bralloween.

Speaker 6 (35:27):
Okay, my video editor, uh actually looks like the like
the wet suit filled with leaves in my front yard
with a skull. That's my video editor.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
So retirement program you have for your poice?

Speaker 14 (35:41):
Yeah see they say that actually you can, you know,
send all of your content to overseas to maybe like Philippines.

Speaker 9 (35:51):
Or shows like a hundred bucks.

Speaker 6 (35:55):
Yeah, it shows up in the farious hands. And I
couldn't do that.

Speaker 13 (35:59):
Why I wouldn't much rather do that than do a content.

Speaker 8 (36:02):
Somebody in somebody in a switch shop doing Griggs videos.

Speaker 6 (36:07):
Yeah, well, what Jerry, you want to volunteer to be
our video editor?

Speaker 9 (36:17):
Just post them to the way they are, all.

Speaker 6 (36:19):
Right, I'm not going to listen to any of you.

Speaker 13 (36:22):
If we sent a video over there, the lady would
be watching it.

Speaker 14 (36:25):
She would see Vinnie and she would look at her
son and say, that's your daddy.

Speaker 6 (36:33):
Wow. Then then he's like the truth hurt, Papa.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Wow?

Speaker 9 (36:39):
Is that you okay alone? Mother? Chres?

Speaker 6 (36:44):
Yeah, alright, talking about creating an international incident, it kind.

Speaker 4 (36:48):
Of a great feeling to be, you know, strong.

Speaker 6 (36:52):
Strong leg bull. Is that what you're alluding to? Man,
this is scary scary. Yeah. But as far as the
type of dive, Brittany, I mean you you picked out
a particular thing. Do you find certain types of dives
more scarier than other ears or it just kind of
depends on you.

Speaker 13 (37:14):
Yeah, I would say any type of dark diving, like.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
K diving or night dive.

Speaker 6 (37:19):
Yeah, just a night dive in general. Yeah.

Speaker 14 (37:22):
Remember you and I had an incident. Oh you were
on the boat. But when that shark came up and
hit that amber jack right.

Speaker 6 (37:30):
In front of me, And yes, I was.

Speaker 14 (37:31):
Diving along the wall, go over the wall because it's
night time, Okay, I'm gonna go up to the wall.

Speaker 13 (37:37):
But the shark came up from the wall, like.

Speaker 8 (37:39):
Yeah, Well, it's the fear of the bott them out
and then watch the sharks take them.

Speaker 4 (37:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (37:46):
Yeah, that's that's not very that's bad form.

Speaker 7 (37:50):
I remember when I was first diving and I had
to do my first night dives. This is eighteen fifty okay,
some huge thing under the boat with its mouth though,
and I was just stepping off for dinner.

Speaker 6 (38:03):
Right, Yeah. I mean anytime, you know, on a night dive,
that's a I think that's a pretty good example of
a creepy thing because, you know, because you can't see
like we typically do on a good VIZ regular dive.
It's just that fear of the unknown, that darkness. Yeah,
you can only see to the end of your light. Yeah,

(38:23):
and it kind of adds to the creep factor, you know,
in the back of your mind, like, well, it's just
out of my view, you know.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
And also we.

Speaker 14 (38:31):
Kind of evolved for a time because when I first
got into the ocean and really started.

Speaker 13 (38:37):
Snorkling in the beginning, yeah, and I would I will
never forget this.

Speaker 14 (38:41):
I was in Saint John and I went off this
dock and underneath the dock was a bunch of barracuda and.

Speaker 13 (38:46):
I was so nervous to come out of the water.
I thought that they were going to eat me alive.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
Right.

Speaker 14 (38:52):
Then all of a sudden you grow out of that.
New fears come up, like Vinnie's.

Speaker 6 (38:59):
Read right, and if he's like right ahead of you
and you're coming up the ladder and he's standing up there, WHOA.

Speaker 13 (39:08):
That never happens.

Speaker 6 (39:09):
Yeah, because I make sure of that.

Speaker 7 (39:12):
Well, yeah, you're evolved.

Speaker 5 (39:15):
His pants are even.

Speaker 6 (39:17):
Well, yeah, she says, as we evolve in our diving life,
or maybe devolve and some people's life, but regardless, Yeah,
you learn to kind of deal with that and put
it aside and it doesn't spook you as much. But
you know, like your first night dive or or even
you know, if you haven't done a night diving a

(39:38):
long time, that that you know, there's always that little
hesitancy when you're on the back of the boat and
you're looking into the abyss and you're about to jump
in the water like with a giant stride and it's
pitch black. You know, there is that kind of I mean,
I don't think I'm alone and thinking like, oh here
we go, here goes nothing. Yeah in the back head,
should I really be doing that? There's not a giant

(40:00):
did shark with its mouth open look like exactly, Yes,
I didn't think twice. Danger is my middle.

Speaker 13 (40:12):
Name, and then you would be in danger of dying.

Speaker 6 (40:15):
Yeah, but uh but yeah, I mean you you learned
to get over it and you realize that just isn't reality.
But you're but your mine. Can you know, play games
with you sometimes if you let it. Hey, I mean
I remember one of my my spookiest dives would be
in the Bahamas and I was on a shark dive

(40:36):
and there was a chain of fish carcasses hanging from
a float about ten feet away from the back of
the boat, and there was only one person in the
uh in the water with a video camera, and a
twelve foot tiger shark was circling this, uh, these fish carcasses,

(40:57):
and he was going to film me jumping in and
hanging with a tiger shark. And I'm looking at this shark.
They were chumming him in one and I was looking
at it, and he pops his heeat up and says,
all right, Greg, we're ready for you. And I'm like,
uh now, and yeah, I might have relieved myself just

(41:18):
a little baby, And then I jumped in and did
it and I lived to tell about it. See, so
you know, was that a little spooky? That was a
little spooky.

Speaker 9 (41:28):
Yes, you relieved yourself before you jumped in right.

Speaker 6 (41:33):
No, No, it was during the giant stride. Yeah. People
thought it was driplets of water. It could have been something, Yeah,
driplet you've heard of those. Anyway. On that, we're gonna
wrap it up till next time. Remember, it's always better
where down, saving.

Speaker 7 (41:54):
Everyone if you want to stay, and no.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
If you because you want to be there.

Speaker 4 (42:07):
On radio, let's get.

Speaker 6 (42:13):
Media.

Speaker 1 (42:13):

This seems the logical place for fish to congregate. Remember,
you could listen live or to archives of past editions

Well it's all very nice yet, but we should be
going there. I miss me wife in me oxygen. Yes,
we all miss our loved ones and guts.

Speaker 6 (42:47):
Let's go the opinions you just heard on scuba radio
are those of the hosts, callers, and guests.

Speaker 7 (42:53):
Okay, you know what I just heard blah blah blah,
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 6 (42:59):
They're not necessary those of any station or network, it's
management or advertisers. Scuba diving does involve risk. It should
never be conducted without proper instruction and training.
