LIZARDS with Earyn McGee

Saurologist and professional lizard scientist Dr. Earyn McGee visits Alie to go on a little lizard hunt, then they hunker down to chat about everything from tiny chameleons to drooling dragons, legless lizards, geckos’ antigravity grip, festering dragon mouths, tangles of snoozy lizards, ecological jellybeans, and how some lizards use their own tails as decoys. We also discuss Earyn’s wildly popular #FindThatLizard game on Twitter/X – You’ll be squinting at bushes looking for lizards and when you see one, you’ll salute it.
