We're Interviewing Who?! - Dr. Tom Fletcher for Life on Our Planet

Dr. Tom Fletcher is here to chat about the perfection of sharks (and how they're oft misrepresented in blockbusters), the evolutionary importance of Lystrosaurus (or "potato tortoise things"), and having to play science bad cop for Life on Our Planet. PLUS we participate in the podcast's first ever scorpion naming ceremony? More about Life on Our Planet: Organized around the five mass extinction events that have forever shaped the planet, plus the sixth we’re facing today, the series brings creatures known only from fossils to life in dramatic, photoreal fashion. These stunning scenes are presented alongside cutting-edge natural history sequences, showcasing the unique evolutionary advantages modern species have inherited from their ancestors in ways that have never been seen before. Audiences will see the story of life unfold through its most pivotal moments: from the first single-celled life form, to the first animals to move out from the sea and onto land, to the first creatures to take flight. Revisiting one of Earth’s longest-lived dynasties, the dinosaurs, viewers will bear witness to the cataclysmic downfall that led to the age of the mammals and the rise of the most dangerous animal the earth has ever seen: us. As it traces our lineage across this epic journey, Life on Our Planet underscores our unique status as the only species in the four billion-year story of life to understand what is happening to our world and what is needed to put it right. But whatever future awaits, the past reminds us that life has always found a way. Life on Our Planet is out streaming now on Netflix.
