In this episode, "Fish Skin and Fishkeeping w/ Dr. Andy Aman", the crew invites Dr. Andy Aman of Cal State LA to nerd out about fishkeeping and to teach us how fish skin evolved over time. Come on a journey as we learn about how human hair might have once been scales and how teeth and scales are inextricably linked in development! And maybe we still have fish skin on our eyes? It's a very interesting episode and you won’t be sorry!
This podcast is brought to you by the moray eel. In the timeless words of Dean Martin, When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a moray. Probably a moray eel you can only see because it's illuminated by moonlight. And only if its left its abode, a crevice in the rocks in the indo pacific. And woe is you if you're a small fish and the moray has teamed up with a grouper. I’m not joking. This is a real thing that happens in nature. Cheers to you, our snakelike fish. May a moray always mean love in our hearts.
