For this 50th anniversary special, Ross welcomes back artist, photographer, and shark conservationist Euan Rannachan – the man behind the Jaws photo, the viral image of a great white shark that continues to stop people in their tracks every time it resurfaces online.
Euan reflects on his first time watching Jaws as a child, how the film planted both fear and fascination, and why he sees sharks as “superheroes” of the ocean. He shares stories from his years photographing white sharks up close, how he balances showing their power and their beauty, and the perspective shift that comes from sharing the water with an apex predator.
The conversation also dives into:
Why kids are often fascinated by sharks while adults lean into fear.
The fine line between celebrating Jaws and correcting shark misconceptions.
Shark cinema from Jaws to The Shallows and beyond.
Whether bigger great whites than “Deep Blue” are still out there.
The lasting legacy of Jaws for sharks, cinema, and generations of fans.
And just when Euan thought it was safe to sit down for a podcast, a surprise guest stops by to lay down the law
