In this podcast from Ologies, Dr. Sarah McAnulty joins host Alie Ward to discuss the burning question left from this year's hottest Netflix show — do squids play games?

The record-breaking Netflix show Squid Game got the whole wide world talking about squids.

Despite squid-related discourse taking over the internet, the hit South Korean TV thriller has one fatal flaw — it doesn't feature any of these fascinating aquatic animals.

Alie Ward is a writer, actor, and podcast and television host. On her podcast, Ologies, Ward interviews a new scientist every week, discussing interesting and amusing trivia about a broad spectrum of scientific fields.

Dr. Sarah McAnulty is a biologist who specializes in teuthology — the study of squids. She is the founder of Skype A Scientist, a non-profit initiative that aims to connect scientific experts with school students.

In this episode of Ologies, the pair discuss strange yet fascinating facts about squids, and why it is so important for us to study these creatures from the deepest depths of our oceans.
