NSP:314 Nordic Endeavour Ocean Rowing & Spearfishing + Neurodivergence Josh Halley

NSP:314 The Nordic Endeavour, NZ Tahr Hunts & Near-Blackout Lessons | Josh Halley Josh Halley of Souls Untapped is back on the Noob Spearo Podcast. He's a spearo, adventure filmmaker, and self-described chaos merchant from the Shetland Islands, Scotland — and this time he's got big news: he's rowing the entire coastline of Norway with an ex-Olympic rower, a freediving coach, and a fellow adventurer, spearfishing and cleaning up the ocean along the way. That's before we even get to the near-blackout in Bali, the 50kg dogtooth he deliberately left at depth in Papua New Guinea, and the mouthfill EQ technique that changed everything. Mix in a helicopter tahr hunt in the deep south of New Zealand, honest talk about ADHD and self-discovery, and some straight-up safety wisdom on float lines and reel guns with big fish — and this is one of those episodes you finish and immediately want to send to someone. KEY TOPICS COVERED: The Nordic Endeavour: rowing the full coast of Norway with Glen Sadler, Martin Helseth (ex-Norwegian Olympic rower and freediving coach), and Anders — July 12 departure ADHD and neurodivergence: Josh's experience of self-discovery through expeditions and why the ocean has been his best classroom New Zealand hunting: helicopter drop into the South Island for Himalayan tahr, camping in the rain, and a bull shot with a bow Near-blackout in Bali: what happened, why it happened, and how Josh had to completely relearn how to breathe The 100% framework: how tides, solo diving, thick wetsuits, cameras, and a floating boat all chip away at your safe dive capacity Mouthfill equalisation: the technique that finally unlocked diving below 20m Float line vs reel gun safety: real stories of lost gear and close calls with big kingfish and dogtooth tuna Papua New Guinea: tent living, ear infections, and the 50kg dogtooth Josh spotted — and chose not to chase CONNECT WITH JOSH: soulsuntapped.co.uk Instagram and YouTube: @soulsuntapped Nordic Endeavour Instagram: @nordic_endeavour_2026 BOOK MENTIONED: Scattered Minds by Gabor Mate UPCOMING TRIPS WITH NOOB SPEARO: 1770 Agnes Water Beginner Retreat (July SOLD OUT - Sep 7 Spots LEFT): spearfishingcourses.com.au/1770 Sail and Spear Whitsundays (August, 2 trips): spearfishingcourses.com.au/sailxspear PNG Intermediate+ with Tim McDonald (September 12-20): spearfishingcourses.com.au/png NOOB SPEARO: Spearfishing Courses and Retreats: spearfishingcourses.com.au Instagram: @noobspearo Website: noobspearo.com Newsletter: noob-spearo.kit.com/floater PARTNER DEALS: Adreno Spearfishing: spearfishing.com.au - use code NOOBSPEARO to save $20 on orders over $200 Neptonics: neptonics.com - use code NOOB10 to save 10% storewide Old Man Blue: oldmanblue.com.au - use code NOOBSPEARO for a free vinyl filleting apron on orders over $300 Aqualyte Hydration: aqualyte.com.au - use code NOOBSPEARO to save 10% Dog and Gun Coffee: dogandguncoffee.com - use code NOOB10 to save 10% HohnkeOutdoors: hohnkeoutdoors.com - use code NOOBSPEARO to save 20% Audio Engineering by Nick Santalucia
