Reminder, if you follow for whale and dolphin content, I now have a separate bluesky for that @whaletalkpodcast.bsky.social This is now a person and gaming bluesky, so most of the whale content on Cravone will be GamesForWaves related, since thats still for a gaming audience.

Omg this is too funny. Im wearing my "This is a whale" Whale Talk Podcast t-shirt in friday harbor. Im getting so many heads turning :D cravone-shop.fourthwall.com/en-eur/produ...

Completed a holiday bingo card goal! "Find one of OBI's dorsal fins without up where they are." I found K12 Sequim! I love this project, it's such a cool idea. Learn more: www.orcabehaviorinstitute.org/southern-res... @orcabehaviorinstitute.org

Well, first holiday bingo item done, and ive not even got on the Cesna to friday harbor. "Overhear someone talking about orcas (lime kiln, TWM, CWR and boats excluded)"

Surf and explore! 🏄 We've partnered with Voyagers of Nera ⛵ for a unique charity DLC! Available now on Steam for $4.99, all proceeds are donated to WDC so pick up your dolphin plushie and surf away! 🐬   👉 https://store.steampowered.com/app/4624260/Voyagers_of_Nera__Whale_and_Dolphin_Conservation/

We have our biggest video yet coming out this sunday! The Northern Resident Killer Whales & Orca Accoustics deep dive. The amount of work that went into getting this video right... And I will have just arrived in the Salish Sea a couple days before it goes live!

I will not be able to sleep tonight, with 43C in the day and 26C at night...plus im getting up at 5.30am to catch a bullet train. Then theres the excitement. 24 hours from now, I am on a plane to Seattle, 56 hours from now, im taking a plane to Friday Harbor, 80 hours from now, I may have seen orcas

Work is over. One more day at home and then I begin travelling to the Salish Sea to have my dream holiday (well dream holiday 2.0 since I did it once)

We are evolving from a 1.0 to a 1.1 release on June 25th! The update includes new evolutions, balance changes, QoL improvements, Twitch integrations, & much more! Full patch notes on June 25th; for now, here's an overview: store.steampowered.com/news/app/3526710/view/686382380150161505 #indieDev

I finally decided it's best to have a separate Bluesky account for the Whale Talk Podcast, and all the non-gaming Whale & Dolphin content. @whaletalkpodcast.bsky.social (Go follow!) That being said, there is a lot of overlap between Whale Talk and Cravone. Consider this account my gaming/personal.

If you want to take action and help the recovery of Southern Resident orcas, we have provided a summary of what we consider some of the biggest ticket issues that could be game changers. You can learn more and find additional resources via the link below or on our website. tinyurl.com/SRKW-Actions

The holiday bingo card is printed.

On June 14, Southern Residents returned to the inland waters of the Salish Sea for the first time in 62 days. It was more than 40 whales: J-Pod and the Greater L4 sub-group. Today, the CWR announced that a new whale, L130, was spotted with L-Pod on that same day! Read more: tinyurl.com/OBI-Blog

Whales are our powerful climate allies, essential for a healthy ocean and a healthy planet. Yet whaling continues in places like Norway, despite opposition worldwide. 1/2

UNO with friends...?? For WDC -- www.twitch.tv/cravone

I need some advise. I am covering a Whale News story that I feel strongly opinionated about. I want my videos to be as factual as possible, but I have my own biases. Looking for advise on how to stay neutral or impartial, or how much personal bias is acceptable?

Busy day today! Ocean themed Minecraft events raising money for WDC, starting in 45 minutes! Then, a pokemon event later today for the same cause! www.twitch.tv/cravone #WOD26

June Orca of the Month - PTN-001 Mel. One of my favorite orcas of history, him and his older male friend came up with the intentional stranding technique used by patagonian orcas. killerwhales.fandom.com/wiki/PTN-001... There isnt a vote for July, it will be the first orca I see!

During the world ocean fundraiser for @whalesorg.bsky.social (WDC), im doing many gaming streams, however one stream im worried about is a trivia stream about Ceatceans on the 10th of June. @geofitz4.bsky.social will ask questions. Each wrong answer, I donate £10. #WOD26 @gamesforwaves.bsky.social

Due to the WODfest fundraiser, I won't have a lot of time to work on Whale News in the near future. I have pre-recorded stuff, but for the grey whale article I am doing, I'm waiting for more information from a webinar tonight and also the vote on the 1st june for jet skis. It may be rough or late.

Going to be streaming Life Below in 10 minutes on both twitch and youtube! This is a brand new underwater city building game where your city is a coral reef. There is a DLC pack available where all proceeds go to WDC! www.twitch.tv/cravone www.youtube.com/@CravoneYT

whalesanctuaryproject.org/on-losing-wi... Appalled by my government's yoyo decision making. It's clear that the welfare of these two intelligent animals was not considered in my government's decision. Had these orcas gone to WSP it would have accelerated the end of captivity in cetaceans.

Some of you know one big hobby I have is video gaming, and streaming those video games. What if I could combine video gaming with conservation fundraising for WDC? Here's how it works! www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkqS... #WODFEST26 @gamesforwaves.bsky.social @narwhalpod.org

Today I learnt that Marine Ecologist Robert Pitman once had a snowball fight with an orca :D

People of Earth, please don't do this. www.king5.com/article/news...

Do you sometimes mix up biomagnification and bioaccumulation? So did I. My next orca video on the Northern Residents will teach you the difference! Also a massive shoutout to anyone that puts their works on creative commons, ESPECIALLY those that place it under public domain. You are unsung heroes!

Due to the World Ocean Festival fundraiser im doing for WDC in June, the Whale Talk Podcast channel will focus on a couple anti-whaling videos. This means the whale news will be done in mid June. It will be a heavy one. We'll be covering Timmy the Humpback Whale, Washington grey whales and more.

New ORCA VIDEO out! This video is about the Iberian population from the coasts of Spain, Portugal, France & United Kingdom! www.youtube.com/watch?v=17gD...

Part 3 of our @afterthebreach.bsky.social podcast series on Southern Resident killer whales dropped yesterday! Take a listen via the link below. We talk about an Orca Action Month project; we are looking for 2 more people to participate! If you're interested e-mail [email protected]

I try not to get political, Im a defender of marine wildlife. I wish that world leaders and nations would remember that an oil spill is a potential extinction level event (regardless of location) killerwhales.fandom.com/wiki/Chugach... uk.whales.org/2026/04/18/w... edition.cnn.com/2026/04/17/s...

Got some exciting collabs coming for World Ocean Day!

During my visit to the Salish Sea in a month and a half, I'll have a bingo card of (sensible) things for me to attempt, like: "Video a cetacean while kayaking" or "Photo a breaching orca" or "Try X food." Everyone that donates £10 to WDC during my WODfest streams, gets to add a goal to the card!

Iceland’s only fin whaling company plans to resume hunting this summer after 2 years off. But demand is falling, the business is losing money, & whale meat is piling up unsold. So why restart? We’re urging Iceland to revoke the license before the season begins 👉 https://ow.ly/qv4y50YT84c

Iberian Orca video will go live on May 17th on youtube! Followed by 2 uploads of videos relevent to GamesForWaves (WDC)'s World Ocean Day event! On a side note, I am really enjoying my journey in discovery of orca acoustics, and i've been having a blast writing the Northern Resident script!
