It’s a big one! With The Professor down in Antarctica and Dr Thom not too far behind him, we’ve got an update live from the field. We’re talking about Antarctic submarine dives, below-freezing trenches, unexpected uses of glacial ice and, of course, the importance of growing a beard… But they’re not alone! This month we’re joined by the incredible Shaylyn Potter (Marine Scientist, Sub Pilot and polar diver) as she talks us through the intricacies and unique nature of this environment. We learn about what makes an iceberg different from a bergy bit (yes, that’s a real word), and why plans don’t always go as planned in the south.
We’re really trying to make this project self-sustaining so we have started looking for ways to support the podcast. Here’s a link to our page on how to support us, from the free options to becoming a patron of the show. 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!
