Whales Caustic Soda

Mr. Dr. Greg Bole rejoins Joe, Toren, and Kevin to talk about the marine mammals called whales. We'll play "Whale or No Such Thing", talk about exploding whale autopsies, the story of the real-life inspiration for Moby Dick: "The Essex", "Blackfish" and Tillicum's attacks, plus a dramatic reading on whale penis fashion from Moby Dick.
