About our OCEAN PROTECTORS PODCAST
Big ocean stories for small (and big) listeners.
The Dimples the Whale™ Podcast dives into real ocean adventures, fascinating whale facts, and heartfelt conversations with leaders in industry, education, conservation, and marine protection. Together, we explore how people safeguard our seas—through both traditional efforts and bold, off-the-beaten-path approaches to ocean and wildlife conservation.
Educators Edition will offer classroom-ready segments, discussion prompts, and simple activities for teachers, librarians, and parents. Kids Edition (ages 5–8) delivers short, playful episodes that answer the questions children actually ask.
The first episode drops in early 2026.
