Interview with Paul Sweetenham from Farer (Aqua Compressor content)

Morning all, I try not post too many podcast episodes... as most of them aren't dive watch specific, but thought this one might be of interest. I caught up with Paul Sweetenham from Farer a few weeks ago to talk about their first dive watch, the Aqua Compressor. https://static1.squarespace.com/stati...

You continued to shout and scream and ignore ...

Re: So I became an accidental podcaster...

Thanks for the support chaps - I was incredibly nervous putting myself out there, and everyone being so accommodating of a new guy is a really great boost in confidence. :)
