We like to let our hair down a little for the Christmas episode and do something a little different.
We like to let our hair down a little for the Christmas episode and do something a little different.
We recorded video this episode! You can find the video version of this podcast below. Me and Alan crack out some mulled wine and decide to interview each other for this episode. Things get a little off the topic of deep sea but it’s all in good fun (if a little dark at times).
We won’t leave you totally without some deep-sea updates though. We still have our news section which includes new research into how sponges may be able to think, a deep-sea crawler that has been tirelessly surveying Station-M for seven years, a new species of deep-diving beaked whale, a new and really nice video of the creepy bigfin squid, can rockfish help us live longer and it turns out that Terry the fat shark is real.
No episode would be complete without checking in with Don Walsh, who tells a story of a Christmas in the Western Antarctic… the far side, and Larkin who has her Christmas plans suddenly change while trying to leave her ship in Mexico.
Whatever you celebrate at this time of year, we hope you have a wonderful time. See you all again in the new year.
We want to say a huge thank you to those patrons who have already pledged to support us.
Thanks again for tuning in, we’ll deep-see you next time!
