    “Immersed: Changing the Current” follows Galen Franchek, a passionate USA swim coach working to break down the systemic barriers that limit access to swimming for people of color in Poughkeepsie, NY. Driven by her belief in equal opportunity, Galen founded the nonprofit Mid-Hudson Aquatics to create access, mentorship, and community for young swimmers who have historically been left out of the sport.

    As Galen fights to make swimming more inclusive, she confronts challenges ranging from limited resources to longstanding inequities within the industry itself. Through determination, mentorship, and compassion, she inspires the next generation to push beyond limitations both in and out of the pool.

    One of the biggest mistakes beginner swimmers make is trying to stand up. When the head comes up, the hips sink, and swimming becomes much harder.

    Watch how naturally this dog stays long and horizontal in the water.

    That’s one of the first principles I teach at SwimLessonsOnline.com

    Today’s guest is one of the most fascinating athletes in world sport.
    Cam McEvoy is an Olympic gold medallist, world champion, and until very recently, the fastest man ever to swim 50 metres freestyle. But what makes his story remarkable isn’t just his success—it’s how he achieved it.
    In a sport built on tradition, where generations of coaches preached more kilometres, more hours, and more suffering, Cam chose to question the system. He challenged decades of accepted thinking, rebuilt his approach from the ground up, and changed the sport in the process.
    This conversation comes at a fascinating moment. Just days after his world record was broken by an athlete competing in the Enhanced Games, we explore the future of sport, performance enhancement, fatherhood, legacy, and what still drives him towards Brisbane 2032.
    This is a conversation about conviction, curiosity, and having the courage to trust your own path when nobody else can see it.
    This is Where the Map Ends, with Cam McEvoy.
