    Hollywood lied to us: Jaws

    Jaws (1975) was a massive hit that also created a whole lot of fear, but does anything in the film really stand up to shark science? Do sharks stalk humans? Do they roar? What can they sense? There are so many misconceptions when it comes to sharks that even now, 50 years later, these are impacting shark policies in Australia, and have come to be known as 'the jaws effect.' Featuring: Sophie Maycock, shark obsessive and founder of SharkSpeak.  Chris Pepin-Neff – Shark policy expert at the University of Sydney.  Jaws (1975) Universal Studios. Production: Ann Jones, Presenter / Producer. Petria Ladgrove, Producer. Additional mastering: Isabella Tropiano This episode of What the Duck?! was produced on the land of the Wadawarrung and Kaurna people.

    Sex is Weird: Ep 7- Do we need sex?

    Sex comes at a cost, there’s energy, time, risks of predators, and diseases… so do we even need it? Asexual organisms don’t seem to miss the dating scene, and yet here we are putting a whole lot of energy into sex, even when it doesn't lead to babies when same sexes attract. Of course, sex is a chance to genetically repair faults and outrun threats, but is the pay-off really enough? Sex is Weird is a series of What the Duck?! with Dr Ann Jones following the sexual evolution of the animal kingdom.   Please note that this program contains adult themes and explicit language. Parental guidance is recommended.   Featuring: Associate Professor Kevin Teather, Author, The Evolution of Sex. Assistant Professor Amanda Gibson, University of Virginia. Professor Joseph Heitman, Duke University. Professor Jenny Graves, La Trobe University.   Production: Ann Jones, Presenter / Producer Petria Ladgrove, Producer Additional mastering: Isabella Tropiano.   This episode of What the Duck?! was produced on the land of the Wadawarrung and the Kaurna people.
