Spearfactor #80: Aleksander Nordahl, Ice Diver, Journalist, and Photographer

Episode 80: Aleksander Nordahl — Freediving, Storytelling, and Ice Diving Description: In this episode of the SpearFactor Podcast, Bret sits down with Aleksander Nordahl — Norwegian photojournalist, freediver, and lifelong storyteller — for a conversation about what happens when a career behind the lens collides with the silence of the underwater world. Aleksander shares how decades of journalism shaped the way he sees the ocean, the stories that pulled him beneath the surface, and how freediving became more than a discipline — it became a way of paying attention. We talk about the cold, dark waters of Norway, the mental craft of the breath-hold, the ethics of documenting wild places, and what divers can learn from journalists about patience, observation, and respect for the subject. Whether you're a spearo, a freediver, a photographer, or just someone drawn to the quiet places, Aleksander's perspective will leave you thinking differently about your next dive. Topics covered: Aleksander's path from photojournalism to freediving Diving the fjords and cold water of Norway Lessons from journalism that apply underwater The mental side of breath-hold diving Storytelling, ethics, and capturing the ocean honestly Advice for divers who want to document their own experiences Learn more about your ad choices.
