Dean Bernal

from My First Season · host Greg Hannah

My guest, Dean Bernal, returns for his second interview! In this episode, we look back at his time as a Scuba G.O. at Club Med Turks and Caicos in the mid-1980s and revisit some unforgettable memories from those incredible years. We also explore his extraordinary friendship with JoJo the dolphin, a story so unique it deserves an episode of its own, which we'll dive into in depth. Along the way, Dean shares what it was like trying to give antibiotics to a wild dolphin, how to handle JoJo when he decides to play while you're teaching a resort scuba course, and one of the greatest whale-watching pranks ever pulled! I hope you enjoy the conversation! **My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available to download on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Podchaser, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora and Listen Notes.
