Episode notes

Garologist, doctor solomon david oway, you went away. Are you still there? O, ok, we're having on couple audio issus. After 25 solid minutes of technical hiccups in this remote recording soff where we use, we just switched. We went over to zoom, because this interview was not, not happening now. But gar is happening, and it's happening now. And also now it was video. So behind solomon, i got to see a four foot tank filled with a live, long snooted gar of various sizes, in the flesh almost. You do have seven of your friends behind you? No, they're right the right behind

A long snout. Hundreds of teeth. Scales that could slice you. What is a gar and should we fear it? Should we hug it? One of the world’s most passionate and knowledgeable experts on this ancient, mysterious fish joins to make you fall in love with these slimy longbois. Dr. Solomon David is affable, charming, enthusiastic and absolutely shameless when it comes to fish puns. Slip into some hip waders and jump in the muck to learn all about a creature that -- despite decades of mudslinging -- is not a gar-bage fish. Also: why gar caviar is a hella bad idea.
