It's a celebration of summer this week on "Conversations". If you’re a fan of Shark Week then you won't want to miss this episode. For more than 30 years, legendary Shark Week producer and filmmaker Jeff Kurr has been wowing audiences with some of the most incredible shark scenes ever caught on camera. Its statement that rings especially true when it comes to one film in particular ... Great White Open Ocean. In this interview Jeff shares his emotional journey in response to a heart-stopping incident where one of his colleagues and friends is presumed killed, but miraculously manages to swim to safety. We'll also fill you in on Jeff's newest film for Shark Week 2024, a thrilling film based around a Mexican fishing village under siege by great whites. And on a much lighter note, one of my favorite stories from Jeff comes from a question that I was almost afraid to ask. To wrap things up, this week's Make A Difference Minute comes from Air Force Veteran Sean Maloney, who talks about the surprising start to his hot sauce company that has customers feeing the heat for a good cause.
