In this episode of the American Shoreline Podcast, Peter Ravella and Tyler Buckingham sit down with returning guest David Abel, an award-winning reporter and documentary filmmaker. With an eye for coastal narratives, David unpacks the stories behind his two latest films: "In the Whale" and "Inundation District." The first film offers an unprecedented account of Michael Packard's harrowing experience being swallowed and subsequently spat out by a humpback whale. The second dissects the fraught decision to build a lavish waterfront district at sea level, despite rising seas and climate warnings. Tune in for a compelling conversation that navigates the treacherous waters of human folly and resilience in the face of nature's grandeur and wrath.
