Sarah & Becca start off by doing a deep dive into the new Seaspiracy documentary. Sarah then gives us an overview of the fishing industry and the amazing technology behind aquaponics. 

Becca shares her knowledge on the law of the sea, specifically in relation to overfishing and high seas crime. She then discusses the conflict that arose between fishers and scientists in the city of New Bedford, Massachusetts. How did policies that were intended to protect the ecosystem end up privatizing the ocean? How did this open the door to a new type of criminal? She tells the story of Carlos Rafael, aka the Codfather.
