Welcome to the PRESSURISED version of episode 65, just the science, none of the waffle
Check out our lovely new website where you can find more detailed notes, images and links to the wider reading.
Welcome back to the Deep-Sea Podcast, your punk take on all things deep sea!
This month, we are talking giant testate protists, the coolest things you have probably never heard of. Giant cells on the deep seabed that can reach 20 cm or more. They build elaborate shells, and despite having known about them for hundreds of years, there are still loads we don't understand about them.
The podcast is self-sustaining (just) thanks to our lovely listeners. Thom and Alan take no money for the show. All money is put back into running it. 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.

We’d love to actually play your voice, so feel free to record a short audio note on our brand new answerphone!
