About Skaana:

Skaana with Mark Leiren-Young — Ocean, Eco‑Ethics & the Environment — Interviews for a Changing Planet is a podcast for anyone who loves the ocean and the animals who live there.

Host Mark Leiren-Young dives beneath the surface with scientists, authors, activists, and other dolphin-friendly humans for candid conversations about marine life, conservation, eco‑ethics, and the issues shaping our future.

Launched in 2017 with a focus on orcas, Skaana has expanded to explore sharks, octopuses, whales, and the wider web of ocean stories—fact-based, curious, and always grounded in respect for life in the sea. Dive in and make waves with us.
