The Food Chain
<p>The ocean is comprised of an intricate network of complex food chains which maintain ecosystem health.

The Sea Urchin
<p>Sea urchins are the ecosystem engineers of most reef systems helping to keep them clean by removing algae. It may be our most scientifically accurate offering to date but does Max’s song - wait, <strong>Max's</strong> song?! - yes, you read that right! Does Max's song "Modern Echinoidea" actually communicate any of the amazing features of these incredibly important creatures, or, does his penchant for Latin and inability to rhyme mean that the listener is just left flummoxed?</p><p>Join Em and Max as they invert the format and Deep Dive into a world of song writing, metaphor, and wrong notes. Do sea urchins have regular facelifts? Does Em’s ability to rhyme mean she would be a better lecturer than Max? Can Max really claim to have written this song?</p><p>Deep Dive in and find out.</p><p>Get chemical free, marine friendly Yarok Plant Based Haircare at 15% off with our code DEEPDIVE</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://yarokhair.com/discount/DEEPDIVE">https://yarokhair.com/discount/DEEPDIVE</a></p>
