Episode description

We are super excited to welcome to this week’s interview episode...


A professor of evolution at Louisiana State University, with a PhD in Ecology and Evolution. He was named a TED Fellow in 2016 for his fascinating Ted Talk about Evolution....it is a pleasure to welcome to the pod the brilliant......Prosanta Chakrabarty.


Prosanta is definitely the Topic Expert we needed to speak with!


Hear us discuss:

  • Prosanta's passion for ichthyology
  • The definition of evolution
  • Pre-Darwin views
  • How calling evolution a theory isn't quite right.
  • Darwin's Natural Selection
  • How does a fish become a horse?
  • How you can see biological similarities in groups of living things, when that link is not obvious.
  • How it is possible to see evolution happening right now


Our research and reading can only take us so far - so from time to time we will interview an expert to ask them questions and hear their real life experience on a topic.


Once you have listened we would love to hear your feedback.


Follow us @TwoGuysOneTopic on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.


If you are able to leave a quick review on your podcast player that would also be really appreciated.


Thanks!
