The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians in western Oregon signed away their subsistence hunting and fishing rights in exchange for federal recognition in 1980. Now, after years of work, those rights are fully restored, opening up a rich store of traditional food for tribal members. Author Brook Thompson was inspired to write her children's book, I Love Salmon and Lampreys, after witnessing a salmon kill in the Klamath River in 2002. Her book, illustrated by Anastasia Khmelevska, is an approachable story about environmental stewardship.

Until very recently, salmon and other fish attempting to spawn in Northern California's Klamath River found a number of dams in their way. Over the past several years, in the largest project of its kind to date, those dams have been removed. Now, the watershed is being restored to let the salmon swim upriver and allow other plants and animals to return. Join host Ronnie Lipschutz for a conversation with Brook Thompson, a member of the Yurok tribe, restoration engineer, PhD candidate in Environmental Studies at UC Santa Cruz, and author of I Love Salmon and Lampreys, an illustrated book for children. Her doctoral work is focused connecting water rights and Native American knowledge through engineering, public policy, and social action.

Lampreys may be jawless fish, but their fossils have a lot to say about long-held assumptions concerning evolution. On this episode, McLain, an assistant professor of biology and geology at TMU, discusses a recent article entitled “Fossil lamprey larvae from South Africa overturn assumptions about vertebrate origins.” The article was written by Robert W. Gess, a paleontologist who worked with Tetsuto Miyashita, Kristen Tietjen and Michael Coates to publish a paper in “Nature” highlighting their findings.

Well, I blew it. I totally blew. I’d like to formally apologize to you the listeners for this episode being a week late, nay, over a week late. There’s no excuse. Am I in the process of moving from Gatineau to Victoria? Yes. Is that a valid excuse? No. Did we run over half of a deer carcass outside of Sault Ste Marie? Yes. Is that a valid excuse? No. Did we see a Moose in Glacier National Park? Yes. Is the Moose a valid excuse? No. The moose is no excuse. I refuse to use the moose excuse. To make it up to you, I’m giving you the first ever On Being Animals two-fer double-shot. That’s right, two guest in one episode that covers two animals! It’s a two-fer double shot. Lovely Lindsay and passionate Pam came in to learn more about the Snotty Spineless Egg Gardener and while they were in the studio, I surprised them with the Dick Fish. That is not a euphemism, my pants stayed on, I am a civil member of society. There was extra time so I taught them about a notorious south American dick fish. Along the way we learned more about taking number threes, danger bay, and the detachable penis. Oh, and in case there is any doubt, Lindsay is charming, gorgeous, and available. Folks, you heard correct, she is available. Most egregious error: I said lampreys feed on whale falls, but I meant hagfish. Lampreys eat blood and fluids of living sea creatures. Hagfish scavenge. Science level: there’s some science….and then a whole lot of sex and genital talk.

In this episode, Shana and Daniel barely even bother to talk about plot and story, so fascinated were they by the gender issues in the most recent two-part story of Series 9: The Girl Who Died/The Woman Who Lived. Is Ashildur genderqueer? Is Clara queer? Are the Mire 'roid-ragers? Is Leando an abusive boyfriend? Also alternative masculinity as portrayed by the Doctor and by the perhaps-appropriately-named Sam Swift the Quick. It's probably more fun than it sounds. Main Topic: The Girl Who Died/The Woman Who Lived. Daniel shouldn't ruin Queen. Shana took notes. If you thought you were political before.... Did you like these? Silly tone with a core of darkness. Ash/Me. One story or two? A J.D. Salinger reference. "Arthouse films from before 1994." A Phil Sandifer reference. Shana might get bitchy about pronouns. A reading from Jack Graham. Maisie Williams. Defining some terms. The danger of being publicly queer. Moving into the episodes. The safety of the closet. Sexualized by the Doctor and Clara. The only thing Steven Moffat had to say about this. The Mire. Testosterone. Psuedoscience. "Trust me, it's unbearable." Taking over a village with a yo-yo and big bad masculinity. Web Developers. "There's gonna be a Big Finish in twenty years...." Babies. White Knight Doctor. Making Ashildr immortal. Never read any feminist literature. Orlando. Severance. Knightmare. Misnaming people. Sam Swift the Quick. We are all in drag. Performativity. Heart turned to rust. Dying children. Savior complex. Too like Missy? Hadn't invented cunnilingus. Sam Swift's masculinity. Dirty Dad Jokes. Self-hating Doctor. Abusive relationships. Brawndo? Me's turn to being a "good person." Longer-form stories in Series 9. Tenth Doctor stories. Moffat feels less involved. Fanfic. Next week: Warrior's Gate.

One day in June, the Value Village in Fairbanks, Alaska was alerted to a 15 foot long bloodsucking fish in their parking lot.. What could possibly cause a lamprey to materialize so far from water? Even crazier, fish were discovered all over the city, as if they fell from the sky. Anthony and Jeff are perplexed by these phenomena, but that doesn't stop them from offering some theories on how they might be happening.

Lampreys are some of the most primitive vertebrates and our three British species have declined in recent years, but as Brett Westwood discovers, their fortunes could be improving.
