In this episode, we ooze through:

• Theories ranging from “marine microbe” to “space booger”

• Why this goo might be more at home on Europa than Lake Michigan

• The highly scientific process of poking it with sticks

• And how sea captains everywhere are now quietly panicking

Strap on your hazmat suit, ignore the squelching noise behind you, and join us as we ask: Is it alive… or just rude?
