This summer marks the 50th anniversary of when "Jaws" first terrorized a generation of children in the movie theater. Radiolab is commemorating the anniversary with a week of programming dedicated to sharks, from understanding our fears of sharks, to our recent shark-related scientific discoveries. Producer Rachael Cusick and Radiolab managing editor Pat Walters discuss Swimming With Shadows: A Radiolab Week of Sharks, and listeners share their memories of seeing "Jaws" or questions they have about one of humanity's most feared predators.
