91. The Culture of Whales: Hydrophones, Cetaceans, and the Power of Story, with Joe Olson
In the Earthkeepers podcast, we often talk about learning how to listen well—to the land, to the family of creation, and to Spirit. How, though, can we listen to our relatives who live under water? Our guest in this episode is Joe Olson, who has designed and built hydrophones – underwater microphones that he tailors specifically for hearing the voices of dolphins and whales. In fact, Joe recorded the voices of the whales at the opening of this episode. In this episode, we turn the tables and record Joe’s voice!Guest: Joe Olson Cetacean Communication , principal scientist Cetacean Communication InstagramCetacean Research Technology founder and past presidentMentions: Springer Namu Namu SongTokitae Friends of Tokitae Lummi Nation WorldPop: Facebook , Instagram, Twitter Find us on our website: Earthkeepers Support the Earthkeepers podcast Keywords: hydrophones, cetaceans, sound, water, noise pollution, orca whales, culture, conservation, animals, captivity, animal rescue, music, connection Find us on our website: Earthkeepers Support the Earthkeepers podcast Check out the Ecological Disciple
