Building a Three-Parent World Exolore: facts-based fictional worldbuilding

A sociologist, a biologist, and an astrophysicist walk into a zoom room and discuss what it would be like if everyone had three parents. Here's a hint: it gets complicated real fast. We discuss speculative science, the difficulty of large collaborations, mating types, and ~bedroom activity~
HOSTED by Dr. Moiya McTier (@GoAstroMo), astrophysicist and folklorist
