Description

In this episode, the gang discusses two studies that look at the extent to which the ecological preferences of an organism are linked to that organism's morphology. Meanwhile, Curt has an existential crisis, Amanda stops caring to the extreme, and James desperately asks for another take. References: Smithson, Timothy R., Kelly R. Richards, and Jennifer A. Clack.
