In this episode, the crew gets schooled on the subject of conservation, Southern Resident Killer Whales and Chinook salmon. We humans historically haven’t made the best decisions as we develop and change the environment, and the repercussions for wildlife can be extensive. Whether its barriers to fish passage from dam building or habitat degradation and population collapse from overfishing, it can affect the food chain all the way up to the apex predator. Lucky for us, Charles Bradfield is here to explain what he’s learned about how two incredible species, severely impacted by human actions, are inexorably interconnected. This podcast is brought to you by the clown triggerfish. These saltwater marvels are a sight to behold. They swim using their dorsal and anal fins, similarly to the ocean sunfish. They delight in consuming shellfish and are some of the most aggressive species in the ocean. In fact, the name clown triggerfish should not evoke laughter but rather fear as they are not afraid of humans and not afraid to bite you. Cheers to you clown triggerfish, truly the clown of our nightmares. Be sure to check out Charles’ Youtube channel if you want to hear more from him! The orgs that Charles mentioned in this episode are the Center for Whale Research , Save Our Wild Salmon , and Pacific Salmon Foundation .

In this episode, " Species Spotlight: Anglerfish " Josh and Christine dive deep into the subject of anglerfish. You'll be surprised how diverse this group of fishes is! You'll also be surprised how many fish you recognize that are actually anglerfish, even though they go by a different name. Deep sea anglerfish get all the limelight but there are lots of species that live in the shallow depths of the ocean of various colors and shapes! Come learn about these masters of camouflage and even one that absorbs light like a black hole! This podcast is brought to you by the wahoo, a slimmer cousin of the tuna. These are highly prized sport catching fish. In fact if you caught one, you might want to shout out “wahoo”! They have characteristic stripes that make them look like an aquatic zebra, minus the giant buck teeth. They are strong fighters when caught on a fishing line and if they snap your line, they may have the last wahoo after all. Cheers to you wahoo and may you swim eternally in our hearts.

In this episode "Founding Fish: The American Shad" , the crew gets patriotic with America’s favorite fish, the American Shad! We meet Bridgette Nicolosi , a fisheries ecologist that knows a ton about the early life stages of these mysterious fishies. These shad grow up in the ocean, swim back up rivers to spawn and many of them can do it multiple times! Come learn about shad, fisheries ecology and some advice about breaking into the field! This podcast is brought to you by the candy darter. Ever been curious what a candy cane might look like if Cinderella’s fairy godmother turned it into a fish? There you have it. These masters of moving water can dart around quite quickly, zipping about between the rocks of many brooks and streams in the mid-Atlantic United states. Despite their name, I can assure you, they do not taste at all like candy. Unless you are a predator who likes to eat darters, then maybe it does. Cheers to you, candy darter, may you brighten up our streams forever. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It! You can find our website at www.gettinfishywithit.com/ .

In this episode, "Georgia Aquarium" , Josh and Christine discuss their respective trips to the largest aquarium in the USA, the Georgia Aquarium! Whether its massive sharks, giant coral reef tanks, freshwater biomes or aquatic mammals, the Georgia Aquarium really has it all. If you want to see the only whale shark in human care in the USA, this is the place for you. So come along as we walk you through the history of this aquarium, its layout and many of our favorite experiences. This podcast is brought to you by the whale shark. In another episode of scientists naming animals after other animals, the whale shark is hardly a whale in any way except it is massive like one. It's also quite harmless to humans, much like your average whale. It is not, however, harmless to plankton and small fish. To them, the whale shark is a massive scourge of the sea, consuming all of their family and friends. Cheers to you, whale shark. You pull off polka dots better than all of us.

In this episode, "The Deep Sea with Dr. Andrew Thaler" , the crew dives deep into the sea! We interview Dr. Andrew Thaler about deep sea vents, mining and the crazy metals that accumulate down there. The deep abyssal plane accounts for 50% of the earth's surface and yet we still know so little about it. We also discuss some of the interesting and funny facts about Reynolds Wrap, General Mills and deep sea submersibles. You’d never guess how these relate! So SUBMERGE yourself in learning as we go on a grand deep sea adventure! This podcast is brought to you by the lanternfish. Classified into the order Mictophiformes , there are over 240 species of these deep sea dwellers. Lanternfish need no matches to light their lantern-like structures but rather depend on bioluminescent bacteria. In the olden-times lanternfishes were hung in the doorways of old houses to illuminate their entrances. And you believe that, I’ve got a lanternfish to sell you. Cheers to you lanternfish, may you light up our lives forever. Be sure to check out Andrew’s company, Blackbeard Biologic . You can also check out his long-running ocean science and conservation blog, Southern Fried Science .

So whether it's a sponge, box, hang-on-back or canister, come learn all about how they can be used in your setup! This podcast is brought to you by the California golden trout ( Oncorhynchus aguabonita ). The golden trout is the state fish of California and is truly a beauty to behold. Native to the Sierra Nevada mountains, most fish only get to a foot in length. Some say the golden trout was the main reason why the gold rush occurred, as many Americans traveled west to pan for them in hopes to get rich. Cheers to you, California Golden trout!

In this episode, "Species Spotlight: Tuna" , the crew dives into the chicken of the sea…tunafish! Tuna are incredible animals. They are sleek and fast and get gigantic! Do you know they are warm blooded? Honestly, the moniker, “chicken of the sea” is so unfair to them. They are so much more majestic than chickens. Anyway, join us as we learn all about these powerful apex predators of the ocean! This podcast is brought to you by the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus ! They are North America's most abundant catfish species and they are the most prevalent caught by anglers in the United States. They are also the most commonly found watching their favorite shows on TV and have been known to change the… channel... more than any other water dwelling organisms. They also have taste receptors all over their bodies, making them the tastiest fish of all time. But why don't you be the judge of that? Cheers to you, channel catfish!

In this episode, the crew makes like a remora and dives into… a new topic! Cloacal diving has been making its way around the internet and these manta rays and remoras don't even know how famous they are. Join us as we discuss the dynamics of a host and its symbionts with Emily Yeager , who published this enrapturing paper on fish swimming up into manta rays and much much more! Links to the papers referenced in this episode can be found on our Substack . The cloacal diving study we discussed in this episode was a collaborative effort between the University of Miami Shark Research and Conservation Program , the Marine Megafauna Foundation , and the Manta Trust . Be sure to check out these organizations and programs if you want to support them or learn more! This podcast is brought to you by the yellow perch, a freshwater fish native to North America. Known for its characteristic yellow and black vertical bars, the freshwater perch inhabits lakes, ponds and streams. Unlike birds, yellow perch are incapable of perching anywhere. During the breeding season, females lay their eggs and males follow them to fertilize them as a group, in what can only be considered a sperm race. Sounds freaky as hell! Cheers to you, yellow perch!

In this episode, Invasive Fish that Walk on Land (w/ Noah Bressman) , the crew gets fishy with Dr. Noah Bressman , assistant professor of physiology at Salisbury University in Maryland. There's so much to discuss! From fishing to fishkeeping, to invasive species, to cool art, Noah’s life is all about fish! Did you know that there’s multiple factors that will influence why a fish decides where to go when it leaves the water? For some fish it’s smell or taste, others will rely on visual cues, and that’s only scratching the surface! Did you know that Noah invented a word for the way neotropical armored catfish move? Hear about that and more on this week’s riveting episode. Be sure to check our Dr. Bressman’s art shop on RedBubble and get yourself a very cool shirt or a sticker! This podcast is brought to you by the deepsea lizardfish, Bathysaurus ferox . Named for its flat, elongated head shape and slim body, the deepsea lizardfish unlocks new fears for anyone who sees them. Why? Why don't you google one of these living nightmares and see for yourself? Maybe its lifeless black eyes. Or its pale ghoulish features. Or maybe even that giant smiling mouth, lined with hordes of sharp teeth. Either way, just know that millions of these fish lurk along the bottom of deep oceans, ready to take you across the river Styx when the time comes. Cheers to you, deepsea lizardfish!

In this episode, "Species Spotlight: Goldfish" , the crew dives into the subject of man’s favorite aquatic pet…the goldfish! Goldfish have been around a long time. They've been given as gifts for hundreds of years. They also are similar to dogs in the way that humans have domesticated and bred them into fancy versions of their wild counterparts. We talk about goldfish history, care, their use in research and of course the many reasons why NOT to release them into the wild! This podcast is brought to you by the ballyhoo halfbeak. While the name of this fish sounds more like an australian expression than an actual animal, the ballyhoo looks as insane as it sounds. If you’ve ever wanted to see a tiny narwhal with a sideways tail, then look no further. And furthermore, the halfbeak’s extended mouthparts do not function as a fearsome sword, far from it. Rather they serve as some sort of sensing organ to evade prey. Cheers to you, dear fish, may you party the night away you old ballyhoo. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

We talk about some weird species that people don't always know are fish and then talk about which animals are fish and which aren't! Come along for the ride! This podcast is brought to you by the Berlin's bloodworm eel Ophisternon berlini. Ever wish that earthworms had eyes and a spinal cord? Meet the Berlin’s Bloodworm eel! This eel was discovered in 2024, 50-75 cm below the surface, buried in swamp mud in Costa Rica. No actual body of water was found nearby its discovery. It's pink, blind and finless, making it for all intents and purposes, a glorified worm. Cheers to you, Berlin’s bloodworm eel and welcome to the family! Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

In this episode, "Oops! All Swim Bladders", the crew gets down with bladders…but not just any bladders… swim bladders! Swim bladders are pivotal to swimming around for many fish. We cover their function, their evolution and why they can cause problems during fish disease. Surprisingly (not actually) humans have found uses for them, and even caused some species to become endangered due to overfishing. Join us as we learn together!This podcast is brought to you by the totoaba. What’s that you say? Did you just name two musical groups from the 70s, TOTO and ABBA who wrote Africa and Dancing Queen respectively? You misheard me. I was referring to the totoaba, an endangered fish living in the Gulf of Mexico. The swim bladders of whom are considered extremely valuable on the black market for use in medicines and cosmetics. Imagine being a smuggler for something so smelly. People do it only because it is so lucrative to do so. Luckily the authorities are doing their best to stop their illegal poaching. Cheers to you, totoaba. May your swim bladders stay intact for all of time. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It! You can find our new website at www.gettinfishywithit.com .

Tanisha shares her heartwarming story about her early aspirations to become a midwife and how her fear of reptiles was overcome by curiosity and eventually love. Tanisha shares her love of ambassador animals with aquariumgoers and helps those around her to learn about the amazing animals that inhabit our planet!This podcast is brought to you by the upside down jellyfish of the genus Cassiopea . Upside down jellies lay on riverbeds and shallow ocean beds, allowing the sun to reach their undersides where photosynthetic algae inhabit their tissues, creating a symbiotic relationship. These are the only known species of jellyfish that are capable of sleep. Scientists found this out by observing tiny alarm clocks all over the substrate floor next to them. Upside down jellies spend most of their adult lives laying down, which makes me insanely jealous of them. Cheers to you, Cassiopea . Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

In this episode, "Species Spotlight: The Ocean Sunfish" , the crew dives into the subject of ocean sunfish! These animals have the smallest brain to body ratio, with a car sized body and a walnut brain. First discovered in the 1700s, much is still unknown about these odd creatures but we share everything we learned! Come learn about a fish without a real tail, that's covered in jelly-like flesh and parasites! This podcast is brought to you by Nemateleotris magnifica , commonly known as the fire goby. These fabulous little pyros have been known to conjure up wizard-like flame spells, turning their opponents into a pile of ash. They are used by blacksmiths to forge magical greatswords with dragon slaying capabilities. They inhabit live volcanoes, and the sandy bottoms of the Indo-Pacific oceans where they feed on small planktonic creatures. Cheers to you, oh great and mighty flame goby!

In today’s episode, " Aquarium of the Pacific ", the crew revisits their time at the Aquarium of the Pacific, located in sunny Long Beach California. Amber and Christine were actually able to visit twice! They go through the exhibits, favorite sightings and rate the aquarium. Frogs, birds, jellies, sharks, they have quite a few species. They also have many garibaldi, the pride of the pacific ocean and native to California. We also provide a bit of history for this dynamite aquarium! Come along! This podcast is brought to you by the garibaldi, Hypsypops rubicundus . Commonly called the marine goldfish after its orange coloration, garibaldi are the largest damselfish in the world. Its name originates from Giuseppe Garibaldi, an Italian politician whose followers wore bright red shirts. One might assume that it’s named a garibaldi because it has no hair on its head, which is true. …No fish have hair at all. They are, in fact, baldies. Cheers to you, garibaldi and happy 2026.

In this episode, " Year in Review: 2025 ," the crew gets sentimental about the year we’ve had. We reminisce about conferences, work trips and learning about fish. We chat about the episodes of the year such as fish myths, fish games, ancient fish, funding for research, shark training and evolution. We are proud of our growing listener base and proud of the famous folks we’ve had on our podcast. We are also SO thankful for you! If you are reading this right now, thank you for coming on this journey as we enter our fourth year of podcasting. Have a happy holiday and a happy new year! This podcast is brought to you by the basking shark, one of three plankton eating sharks in the world. Named after its common proximity to the surface of the water, people assumed they were sunning themselves, while they were probably just eating. When eating, the basking shark’s mouth is so large that it looks continually surprised. Maybe it's surprising that it doesn't eat something bigger than plankton. Basking sharks are a cosmopolitan species, meaning they can be found all over the world and adapt for various climates. They also love a good drink umbrella. Cheers to you, basking shark!

This week, we join the remaster trend by re-recording a classic episode that our online listeners have never heard! We did a live podcast episode at PAX East in Boston in 2024, and the recording was sadly lost (thanks tech guy Bernard…). We had so much fun the first time, we thought we’d record it all for our online listeners! We covered everything from the very first fishing games, to fishing minigames in games which otherwise have nothing to do with fishing! Want to learn about the history of fishing in video games? Take a listen! This podcast is brought to you by the Keefer’s Angelfish, one of the rarest fish in all of Stranglethorn Vale. These exquisite fish of the World of Warcraft do not breed but rather appear during a single event, leading to an all out clamor by fishing enthusiasts around Azeroth. One might think that the Keefer’s Angelfish doesn't look anything like an angelfish in the real world and that it seems similar to many other fish with the same EXACT icon and to that we’d say… “you're right”. Nonetheless, this fish remains one of the crown jewels for anglers everywhere. Cheers to you, Keefer’s Angelfish. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

In this episode, " Repatriated Sturgeon as Biomonitors for Pollution ," the crew goes for a swim in the historic Genesee river of Rochester, NY with Dr. Jeff Wyatt. He’s been doing incredible work with reintroducing sturgeon into an area where they were recently extinct. Did you know that sturgeon can take 20 years to get to breeding size/age? Join us for a heartwarming story about fish, water restoration and local communities coming together to save their waterways. This podcast is brought to you by the cardinal tetra, Paracheirodon axelrodi. The Cardinal tetra is the second holiest of all fish species, second only to the Pope fish. These fish can be found dribbling holy water on babies, saying hail Mary’s and eating small planktonic organisms. Hail to you, cardinal tetra. May you adorn many tanks in large groups.
