from The Great Shark Debate | The Tim Dillon Show #356 · #356

Tim admits to watching shark attack videos on planes, argues sharks are still violent apex predators, and riffs on his preference for quiet, splash-free beaches with women in white linen.
- Media brainwashing over 40 years has made people terrified of sharks instead of respecting and protecting them.
- Tim watches shark attack videos on plane Wi-Fi, and also watches plane crashes while on planes.
- Sharks are apex predators and violent, but Tim's position is to protect them while also protecting humans from them.
- Can't build ocean gates to keep sharks out because the ocean moves and you can't contain it that way.
- Shark spotters on beaches alert people when sharks appear, and most of the time sharks are swimming nearby without anyone knowing.
- Sharks only attack things they know they're going to eat—they eat sick and dying fish and wander the globe as pelagic predators.
- Tim's ideal beach scene: quiet women in white linens reading novels while men and housekeepers bring children in the water.
- Tim believes human beings are special and unique, a statement he's held throughout his life.
