Ever wondered what's swimming just beneath the surface while you're catching waves? 

Official government drone programs and helicopters do an incredible job keeping our beaches safe, but they can't be everywhere 24/7—especially at dawn, dusk, or along quieter stretches of coast. Brent sits down with former professional surfer and Dorsal co-founder Sarah Beardmore. We explore how the community-powered shark alert platform is bridging those surveillance blind spots, and look at the brand-new smartwatch technology designed to beam live sighting alerts straight to your wrist while you're still in the water.


Filling the Blind Spots: Why official surveillance programs have operational hours and gaps that leave remote or early-morning beaches unprotected.


A Community Safety Net: How Dorsal combines public reports, drone data, and official feeds into a near-real-time warning system to supplement government monitoring.


The New Smartwatch Tech: Overcoming the "phone on the sand" problem by developing wearable tech that alerts surfers and swimmers actively out in the ocean.


Empowering Everyday Choices: Using practical, data-driven insights to manage risk and stay safe without letting panic take over your beach day.

If you love hitting the surf or swimming down at your local beach, this is an essential listen for staying across local conditions.
