The world's biggest One Tree Hill fan came to the On Being Animals studio to record this episode. In addition to loving trashy TV, Meghan is well read and her immaculately tended brain garden helped us discover the Slender Fighting Fuzzy Snake. Along the journey, we also discovered fascinating knowledge nuggets about smoke bombs, mental health, and ham skin licking.

Most egregious error: I brought up the TV show Highlander. Not a good move.

Science level: we got talking about neurotoxins y'all!
