Hi everyone welcome to this week's episode of no such thing as a fish where we were joined by the incredible Dr. Erica

Erica Macalista. Now Erica has been on the podcast before so you might remember her but if you don't the one thing

you need to know is that she is an expert in flies insects.

I won't say creepy callies I won't say Creepy-Carlies. I won't say Minnie Beast because I know Erica doesn't like that.

But she is essentially a senior curator at the Natural History Museum and an absolute legend in this office.

She is so enthusiastic about her subject but also so funny, so interesting.

We really really enjoyed making this show.

The main thing I do need to tell you is that Erica has a

buck out. Her book is called Metamorphosis, How Insects are Changing Our

World. It's a lovely thing I've got a copy of it right here. It's got loads of

amazing pictures, incredible stories. It's just a really, really great object

to own and obviously you'll learn a great deal about insects if you buy that buck.

Another thing to say is that the Radio 4 show which spawned the book,

get it spawned, it's called Metamorphosis how Insects Transformed Our World.

That is currently available on BBC Radio 4.

If you Google Radio 4, Erica Macalese, you will find it.

It's a great show and it is full of amazing facts. Anyway, not much

more to add. Join Club Fish if you haven't. Buy our books if you haven't. Bla blah, blah, blah,

blah. Let's get on with a show with with Dr Erika McAllister and on with a podcast. Hello and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish, a weekly
