{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Secret Santa, halloumi and The Thing: a very Antarctic Midwinter","description":"The 21st of June marks one of the most significant dates in the Antarctic calendar - Midwinter. It's the moment the darkness stops deepening and the light begins, slowly, to return. To mark the occasion, Nadia Frontier is joined by three people currently spending their winter down south: Josh, an electrician at Rothera Research Station on the Antarctic Peninsula; Catherine, a zoological field assistant tracking leopard seals at the tiny four-person station of Bird Island; and Cami, a marine biologist at King Edward Point on South Georgia.\n\nBetween them, they span three very different Antarctic experiences and share what it really feels like to live through a polar winter, how their stations are marking the occasion, and why Midwinter can mean even more than Christmas when you're this far from home. From secret gift-making and hedgehog halloumi to French political campaigns and kit bag escapology, this is a warm and joyful celebration of community, resilience and Antarctic life.","author_name":"Iceworld","author_url":"https://audioboom.com/channels/5124543-iceworld","provider_name":"Audioboom","provider_url":"https://audioboom.com","width":480,"height":95,"thumbnail_url":"https://audioboom.com/i/43705442/600x600/c","thumbnail_width":600,"thumbnail_height":600,"html":""}
