Planet Visionaries – Ep 7: Speaking Whale - with Dr. David Gruber
Episode 7
Monday, 12 January, 2026
In this episode of Planet Visionaries, a landmark podcast series in partnership with the Rolex Perpetual Planet Initiative, host Alex Honnold meets marine biologist, explorer and Project CETI founder David Gruber - a scientist pushing the boundaries of how humans understand the natural world. From discovering the first biofluorescent sea turtle to pioneering soft robotics that allow us to study ocean life without harm, Gruber has dedicated his career to trying to see Earth through the eyes of other species. Now, with Project CETI, he and a team of interdisciplinary researchers are attempting something once thought impossible: translating the communication of sperm whales. For nearly a century, Rolex has supported pioneering explorers. Over time, the company has moved from championing exploration for the sake of discovery to supporting initiatives to protect the planet. Through the Perpetual Planet Initiative, Rolex stands along. Credits: For more on Project CETI: https://www.projectceti.org/ Dr. David Gruber shared how his work intersects with ethics and law through collaborations with César Rodríguez-Garavito at NYU School of Law and The More Than Human Life Project MOTH Theme and score by Kara Talve for Bleeding Fingers Music, produced by Russell Emanuel.
