]]> Heads Up Key West - Capturing a Community Karrie Bond 01:36:26 Tom Flip came to Key West 15 years ago, camera in hand, and built his career as a photographer. He shot weddings, ad campaigns, creative projects…but in 2013, a new opportunity would give wings to an interest he’d had all his life, which was photographing people. But not just any people, it was the eclectic characters of Key West that drew his attention. Five years later, he revisits the project with a 2018 edition and gallery opening at The Studios of Key West, and we got to sit down and learn more about the inspiration behind a five month photo shoot that brought the community together.

]]> Holding Your Breath – Key West Freedivers know that Sharks Call the Shots Karrie Bond 01:05:58 Key West has a long history of freediving (diving without a SCUBA tank), and those divers make up the majority of the local spearfishing population. What they probably don't tell you is that there is a lot more to it than taking a deep breath and jumping over the side of the boat. We talk with local spearfisherman Robert Bond on how one wrong move can mean serious trouble, what you need to try spearfishing for the first time, and how Key West differs from other areas.

But if you’re the unlucky coral larvae recently spawned into the open ocean, awaiting your chance to cling to a passing surface so you can begin your slow steady journey to growing into a rocky habitat for fish and sea life to call home, those sounds might sound like something out of a horror film.

Every year, thousands of visitors flock to the barrier reef by private boat, by charter, and by catamaran, to take in the sights beneath the surface, totally unaware of the unintentional mess they leave behind.

I wanted to make sure to thank the City of Key West Government for providing access to the City Commission meetings via live stream and video, the January 15th meeting being the one from which the audio you hear in this episode was procured.

We discuss the arguments shared by both sides, and go into why this matters not just for Key West, but for the entire planet.
