Summary

This episode, by request, we’re talking about one of our favorite groups of invertebrates! Specifically, invertebrates with big brains and squiggly arms - some with beautiful shells and others with incredible camouflage - and a fantastically rich fossil record stretching back over 500 million years: the cephalopods. In the news: a giant gets a name; a confusing early dinosaur; some really old ice; and a rockstar croc.
