338 - We bought a Zoo-ologist's book

00:00:00 - Dr. Arik Kershenbaum ( @arikkershenbaum ) stops by to talk about his new book, The Zoologist's Guide to the Galaxy: What Animals on Earth Reveal about Aliens—And Ourselves , AKA the fastest we've ever said yes to an interview. 00:27:50 - Both life and beef requires water, so let's talk about what we're drinking. Patrick has a perfectly adequate Punk AF from BrewDog, Ryan is also having a non-alcoholic Upside Dawn Golden Ale from Athletic Brewing. It is also fine. 00:36:29 - Part 2 of our discussion with Arik Kershenbaum is the second part of our conversation about his book. Please enjoy! 00:58:04- PaloePOWs are a lot like alien life: is it really out there? Ryan begins with a 4-star Apple Podcasts review from Entertaining, but… who is frustrated by politics creeping into the show, which prompts a hopefully helpful discussion about what exactly this sort of criticism might mean. Patrick finishes with an e-mail from Peter C. about classifying human species as we colonize other planets based on the game Stellaris , but of course Ryan can't help but bring up The Expanse . Discussion ensues. You can support us and local bookstores by shopping at our store on Bookshop.org and even more cool rewards await you if you decide to support us on our Patreon !
