If it's ok would you guys mind mixing the audio a little bit louder? I have really poor hearing at the ripe old age of 19 and would appreciate it lol

Whaaaa.... Wow, the cookie cutter is build different

Ate my eggs and toast listening to this

NICE I just found this show yesterday (in my endless search for weird, smart people to listen to at work) and specifically saved this ep in my watch later playlist. But then this crispy new version drops today! It's like you made it just for me 💖 Thanks for the great show

My grandfather was on the Johnston

Works in Oakville Canada 🇨🇦 😎

So are these living things in the water are the reason that the bodies disappeared?

Ffs dont look up baikal amfipods they lool like alien killer prawns

where is this????

i just discovered this great podcast and im super happy you talk about actual science!!

THATS WHAT I CALL A WELL ROUNDED BREAKFAST...

Awesome! Thanks for creating this!

This is an absolutely fascinating ramble through the lake and its inhabitants. Much thanks to Dr. Moore for sharing her enthusiasm!

Doug and hagfish!

Doug is the best

Thanks for inviting me to share on this episode!

YESSSS YES

I joined an ocean science company for a bit this past year and one of the reasons I could connect with my coworkers was because of Don. I've loved every moment of his stories and legacy. Thank you for doing this work, thank you for sharing, just thank you.

Thank you for sharing the great memories of Don.

Everyone with an interest in SETI should watch this episode.

Good part starts at 8:02

I freaking love molluscks

Listening to this podcast while I’m out at sea as a researcher on a fishing vessel and the packing list gave me such good ideas for future trips and for reducing that lingering fishy smell. Thank you 😂

this channel is so underrated. I have almost watched every episode and i have always learnt something factual. Big W to the channel!

I loved learning about deep river ecosystems would love more in the future

Well done for putting yourself out there Thom. Really interesting episode and a lot of simple solutions to little problems that most of us encounter to varying degrees.

‘It’s good to deep-see you again. Did you abyss me’ is gonna be my go-to pickup line from now on!

Can you make more of these?

I'm just gonna start linking people to this video every time I hear this absurd claim online

Great interview

I relate to this so much about people not even listening in an argument. I realized the other day that it is time for me to make new friends when at the pub having a couple of pints. I bought up an opinion about music preference which was different to everyone there - I said I personally prefer live bands and don't think much of DJ's (I'm 18 so this is a very unpopular opinion) I then essentially got bullied and shouted down for the next 10 minutes as they tore me apart purely for not agreeing with them. I think if someone can't accept that your opinion is just as valid as theirs that shows real immaturity. My solution from now on is to just not engage when topics like that come up because there is no point. If you can get someone on their own however in my experience it's a different story. There's something about herd mentality to just agree with whoever is shouting the loudest that you don't get in a one on one conversation. Anyway those are my thoughts. Love the podcast

The ending to this was truly terrifying. Great episode though!

In the Newcastle on Tyne Great North Museum, on the deep sea display, it said that "more people have walked on the moon than have been to the deepest parts of the sea"... I pointed it out on my way out, not really sure whether they listened, though. Great podcast!

Listening to your podcasts is getting me through uni all nighters, greetings from Stirling🐬

So turbulent water is all that's lurking in between where you start and then have to stop because of the water?

I love how much fun you guys have making these podcasts, even on serious topics

What happened to episode 5 and 6 😲

Wow I guess this podcast really is for a niche audience! I guess not many people search for deep sea related content. This has really inspired my interest in the deep sea like no other source of content. Hearing what you guys do in the field is so captivating to me, and if it hadn't have come up when I searched for deep sea content I would be much less knowledgeable so thanks for being here :) ps isn't it amazing that we know more about the surface of the moon than we do about the deep ocean.....

Truly amazing korero Dr Bolstad!

I never thought I'd want to hear about a lactation situation at the bottom of the sea but here I am, lisitening to this while doing chemistry homework. I thought the process of being a scientist working at sea while also taking care of a family is really interesting and I'm glad that someone is talking about it. Personally, i'm really intersted in this as a carrier path but havent found my footing in univeristy or really considered what the costs of being away from home on research would be like to a potential family in the future. If this comment magically gets read I'd have to ask how scientiic researchers spend so much time studying just one species or genus? As someone who has ADHD, while I can get stuck on specific ideas and processes for a long time like my interest in ocean sciecne and engineering I coudln't possibly imagine studying one specific fish for years at a time. Unless there's a lot of field work involved and more things to consider than just the basic bioloigy of the animal. What kind of processes go into studying one of these animals and what are the day to day lives of those researchers like? I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who works on these episodes because for someone like me trying to discover my own passions it means a lot to be able to lisiten to people who have actually worked in these fields and been in some very unique situations in the deep sea.

What’s probably even stranger is when these deep sea creatures, who often are exposed to little light, come in the view of human instruments like ROVs. From the videos I’ve seen online they either swim away, mind their own business, or get curious. I think either you guys have talked about this before or I read it somewhere- but this large light from us can put them in an unnatural state where they behave differently than usual too. And at that point, there’s just a large light aimed towards the fish with nothing happening… so, I guess that’s quite a story to tell to their other fish friends (if they can find them)😹 But I’m curious, what are some harmful effects of these bright lights on deep sea animals? I’m happy to do any further reading if you have any scientific paper suggestions!

Wonderful episode! I actually wrote a comment some time ago about how I'd love to see a sort of "day in a life" of what you guys do. That human aspect would make people a lot more interested in the "mundane" parts of science- even hearing that story Alan told where he was locked in a room made me want to read the article. I think I should have listened to this episode and commented my suggestion here- because you guys talked quite a bit about the same thoughts I have regarding science communication. I think I'd have to side with Susan about how she'd like to learn as much as she can about science. In my opinion, the whole "magic" of ignorance isn't necessarily limited if you know more- the more you know, perhaps the deeper in the rabbit hole you could get with your wacky ideas. As someone who's in the arts side academics (English Language and Literature), I'm working on exploring all of... well everything. I believe there's much more to imagine the more you know. And getting deep into cosmology, marine science, literature- I don't believe there is a lack of magic, but rather more. Being stuck in Plato's cave puts a limitation on the things you can expect. Outside the cave you may realize that it's just caves inside of caves. Basically, I don't believe the magic will be lacking the more you know- perhaps because assuming that you will lose that "magic" might be suggesting that there is a limit, and that's comforting.

Awesome episode! I'm surprised how fitting my comment on nictoepipelagic was for this topic. And I didn't know it was typically written with a "y" instead of an "i". I was able to find more recent papers with that spelling!

great stream keep it up

Kind of debating whether I should show my 4 year-old sister this video 😹 I have a poster of that labels the entire ocean system along with a few of its inhabitants. The grenadier fish is located in the abyssopelagic along with the dumbo octopus. She loves looking at these two and knows them by name... but does she reaaaally know them unless she sees them for real (rather than drawings)? Should the truth be revealed at the risk of traumatizing her? I'm sure it'll be fine though, just don't zoom into the face! But this is also my first time seeing the grenadier fish for real! In the poster I have, the pelvic fins look a lot bigger and resembles the dorsal fin. I only see the two filaments you pointed out in this video. Perhaps they're very retracted in, or I'm blind. I'm not familiar at observing fishes though😹

Really interesting to see deep-sea fishes up close! This genus especially outlines the human concept of classifications- where we try to group things together based on morphology or molecular differences. It's really hard! Life and evolution doesn't care about our desires for organization! I just read a paper from 2008 on the "resurrection of S. crassus" where the researchers compared body-size, otolith form, and meristic characteristics. I'll be honest... I didn't understand the majority of that paper. But they highlighted specific differences such as... Dorsal-fin rays: S. grandis (135-148) and S. crassus (121-139) Those little differences AAAAA!!! And another issue regarding the classification of manta rays and mobula rays came up in another paper too! The genus "manta" isn't recognized anymore! My little sister's going to be so shocked when I tell her this in a few years (she's 4 and loves manta rays)... Anyways, cool video! I'd love to understand more about the morphological characteristics you pointed out- such as the defensive spine. Why is it specifically located there and how effective is it? And I was seriously expecting you to dissect it 😹 the video presentation just screamed "DISSECTION".

It's really cool to actually see who's behind the voices! Maybe in the future The Deep-Sea Podcast would have its own studio? Would love to see it! Many activities could be done if the podcast was visual, including "show-and-tell" and presentations of deep sea fish. Seeing a still image is good for audio listeners, but isn't as engaging. Love seeing you both excited in a studio, made me excited as well! Additionally, it'll be really interesting to see the process of researching and writing papers. Many documentaries I've seen on the subject were quite... TV-like, I guess? I'd enjoy a more personal, up-close approach like a "vlog"- get to know the researchers (and the fishes). Science-media sometimes feels very distant, as if it were another world and the viewers are observing "the adults" doing their work. And honestly, I feel like you two are great entertainers! I hope this podcast gets more opportunities to do fun things (like an episode in a studio)!

Fascinating episode! I've always wondered about how fish were transported and kept in aquariums. I've heard all sorts of things such as the Georgia Aquarium training filter feeders (whale sharks & manta rays) to eat from these long sticks that drop krill. You guys talked about having to figure out how to adapt new species into new environments- having issues such as getting them to eat and adjust to new conditions. It reminded me about this news article from 2016 about the "Mind-Blowing Super-Freaky Rainbow fish" which was caught around the deeper end of the epipelagic. They had to develop pressurized containers for the fish to slowly adapt as they reduced the pressure over a couple of days. Anyways, I'd loved to see these deep sea fish in person if I ever get to visit The Monterey Bay Aquarium! The aquarium here in Vancouver is quite limited, and I've even noticed the majority of the coral in the tanks bleaching... ALSO! I was wondering whether you guys knew about the term "nictoepipelagic fish". It refers to vertical migratory fish between the mesopelagic and epipelagic (which was touched on in this episode). The term didn't seem to click as it seemed to have died out after 2006. Too bad, because "nicto" apparently means "blink" or "wink" in Latin. The "wink upon the open sea!!!" Maybe if you guys know any, you could mention some wacky terms describing the deep sea that never caught on. Awesome episode!

Awesome episode! I totally agree with all your points on science communication and how we should stop isolating the idea of “scientists discovered” from the rest of humanity. Just discovered this podcast and I’m planning on tuning in for more!

Does this mean there will be "I am your tongue now" merch??
