In this episode, "Cuttlefish Husbandry and Research", the crew talks to Connor Gibbons, a Cephalopod Facility Manager, about all things cephalopods and their applications in a research setting. Curious about the distinction between arms and tentacles? Tune in to discover the answer!

This podcast is brought to you by the Giant sunfish, the largest bony fish in the world.  Truthfully they look more like aliens than fish.  With large paddle-like fins on the top and bottom, they traverse the depths looking for prey, all the while sporting an open mouthed expression which resembles sheer surprise.  Maybe because it got a glimpse of itself in the reflection of a nearby boat hull and thought to itself “is that what I really look like”?  Cheers to you, giant sunfish, may your ugly mug grace the high seas forever.

In this episode, "A Year in Review", the crew reflects on the past season and discusses what they'd like to see in season two of the GFWI podcast!

This podcast is brought to you by the Mexican tetra or Astyanax mexicanus.   These fish are famous for a subset of their species assuming a blind cave form which adapted to living in the darkness. These fish have no eyes and only sunken holes where eyes should be.  That’s right, these fish are like the blind "Smeagols" of the fish world.  Pale, creepy looking and probably guarding some sort of magic ring. If only Charles Darwin could’ve seen this perfectly imperfect result of microevolution. Cheers to you, Mexican tetras.

This podcast is brought to you by the Ornate Boxfish. These fish do not live in boxes but rather are found swimming amongst coral reefs.  They might come in a box if you bought one at a pet store, but more likely, they'd be transported in a bag. They can also be found running illegal underground boxing rings. They are the number one fish offender of tax evasion. Cheers Ornate Boxfish and good luck with your illegal meddling!

In this episode, "Loveland Living Planet Aquarium", the crew talks about visiting the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium in Draper, Utah. They got to see lots of native & tropical fish and...other animals that they just do not care about (sorry mammals! 😅).

This podcast is brought to you by the Queen Angelfish. Could there be a more majestic creature in name or appearance?  As if royalty of queenship wasn’t enough, this fish has also ascended to angelic status. And deservedly so, for her beauty is rarely outshone. Hail to you, Queen angelfish!

This podcast is brought to you by the zebrafish. Zebrafish are also known as the science nerds of the aquatic animal kingdom. Named for their stripes, the zebrafish can often be found in science labs, discovering new cures and regenerating their organs like wolverine from X-men. Cheers to you zebrafish and your mutant-like science-y powers.

In this episode, “Fishy Video Games”, the crew discuss video games where you can play as a fish, interact with fish, simulate an aquarium, or that just have a really fishy theme to them. We don’t cover games where fishing is the main goal (or a commonly used mechanic), we will save that topic for an upcoming episode!

This podcast is brought to you by the Dolly Varden trout. The Dolly Varden can be found strumming its acoustic guitar and serenading its lakemates with hits such as “I Will Always Love You”, "Islands in the Stream” and “Jolene”.  This is also the only fish in North America to wear a blonde wig. So cheers to you, Dolly Varden. May you live forever in our hearts.

This podcast is brought to you by the ghost knifefish. There is no spookier name on the planet than the ghost knife fish.

In this episode, “Underwater Experts: RVTs in the World of Fish Health”, Nora Toney RVT joins our hosts to talk about what it’s like being a Registered Veterinary Technician that works with fish. We learn what an RVT’s role is in animal health, why they are an essential part of the animal health team, and what a day in the life of a fish RVT looks like. Christine and Nora talk about their experiences as RVTs, how the role can be challenging but also incredibly rewarding, and just plain nerd out about veterinary care for fishes.

The month of October is RVT Month in Canada, and the third week of October is National Veterinary Technician Week in the USA. We wish all credentialed technicians an incredible month, and all the best in your essential, diverse roles as part of the animal health team. Keep up the amazing work.

This podcast is brought to you by the foxface rabbitfish. The foxface rabbitfish possess a name that seems like an oxymoron. After all, foxes eat rabbits. But the foxface rabbitfish refuses to be labeled. It swims around proudly, displaying its venomous spikes as if to say, “what are you going to do about it human? After all, you named me. In reality, I look more like a yellow raccoon. So whose fault is that?” Cheers to you, foxface rabbitfish, and we’re sorry for naming you.

A veritable who’s who of record setters, we cover the world’s fastest, slowest, largest, smallest, most adaptable to cold, heat and much more!

This podcast is brought to you by the goliath grouper. Despite its name, most groupers do not spend any time in groups but are rather solo creatures.  But maybe they are just looking for a friend and haven't found the right one yet. Befriend a grouper today!

In this episode, “Invasive Fish Species”, we discuss ecosystems and the many fish species that end up thriving in new habitats, threatening other native species that live there. Who is usually at fault?  Humans! We break down 6 types of invasive fish that either eat their competition or outcompete them for food. From gigantic carp that jump into your boat, to aquatic vampires that suck the blood of their fishy-lakemates, we get to know some of these scary invaders!  We also cover the response of local governmental bodies and how they prevent further spread of invasives.  If we could summarize one valuable lesson from the episode, it would be: Don’t release pet fish into the wild.

This podcast is brought to you by the seven figure pygmy goby.  With the shortest lifespan of any known vertebrate, these fish are the epitome of “life is too short”.  As a result, these fish can be found bungee jumping, sky diving and doing a whole host of dangerous activities.  Wouldn't you, if your life was only 59 days long?  Here’s to you, seven figure pygmy goby. May you make every second count!
