“If you were eaten by an owlbear, would your skeleton come out the owl end or the bear end?” This month on Dugongs and Seadragons

The adventures of the Cephalosquad continue on our weekly marine science-themed Dungeons and Dragons podcast, Dugongs and Seadragons. This month, the party attends an academic lecture on renewable energy which gets a little out of hand.

We’ve got a Patreon (separate and completely unrelated to the Southern Fried Science Patreon), where you can get behind-the-scenes clips and other ocean adventures.
