Zebrafish as a Model for Infectious Disease (with Dr. Corbin Schuster)

5/16/2024
In this episode, “Zebrafish as a Model for Infectious Disease”, the crew discusses why zebrafish are an important model for infectious diseases! This podcast is brought to you by the blobfish, an inhabitant of the deep sea of the coast of Australia and New Zealand. They live at depth of up to 12 hundred meters under pressure 120 times that of sea level. One would think that the blobfish being under such immense pressure would lead to self sabotaging addictions such as overeating, chain smoking and perhaps over-imbibing in alcohol, however the blobfish somehow manages. Maybe it takes one look in the mirror and realizes that it's too ghastly looking to be concerned about such things. What an ugly mug! Now that’s a face only another could love. Cheers to you, blobfish! Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The Brine Shrimp Harvest Industry (with Ashley Kijowski)

4/4/2024
In this episode, “The Brine Shrimp Harvest Industry”, the crew is joined by wildlife biologist, Ashley Kijowski, as they discuss the history of artemia cyst harvesting in Utah's Great Salt Lake and how these "shrimpy" little critters are not shrimp at all! This podcast is brought to you by the brine shrimp, Artemia salina. Popularized in the early 60’s, these tiny household pets were marketed as sea monkeys. However they have nary a trait that monkeys possess. They do not eat fruit, nor do they groom each other. One would certainly question the first creators of this live product. But then again, thanks to them, the brine shrimp has become a household name, hoisted into the limelight over its other shrimpy cousins. The brine shrimp can be found walking the red carpet of fish award shows signing autographs for new hobbyists. Cheers to you, brine shrimp. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

Navigating Regulations in Laboratory Fish Research

2/23/2024
In this episode, "Navigating Regulations in Laboratory Fish Research", the crew delves into the intricate yet essential regulatory framework that encompasses various fish species employed in scientific research. Let's make regulations fun! This podcast is brought to you by the African Turquoise Killifish. The name “Killifish” is of Germanic origin, with the root word meaning “bay” or “gulf”. Some might guess that with the word “kill" being part of their name that they might be ferocious creatures, however they are actually a lovely laboratory species, capable of getting along with tankmates. The killifish is an excellent model for aging studies due to its short life cycle and because of the dry season in Africa, many parents don’t live to see their offspring. Don’t worry, ghost killifish parents, your children are doing just fine and you should be proud of them. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

We don’t cover games where fishing is the main goal (or a commonly used mechanic), we will save that topic for an upcoming episode! This podcast is brought to you by the Dolly Varden trout. The Dolly Varden can be found strumming its acoustic guitar and serenading its lakemates with hits such as “I Will Always Love You”, "Islands in the Stream” and “Jolene”. This is also the only fish in North America to wear a blonde wig. So cheers to you, Dolly Varden. May you live forever in our hearts. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

Underwater Experts: RVTs in the World of Fish Health

10/6/2023
In this episode, “Underwater Experts: RVTs in the World of Fish Health”, Nora Toney RVT joins our hosts to talk about what it’s like being a Registered Veterinary Technician that works with fish. We learn what an RVT’s role is in animal health, why they are an essential part of the animal health team, and what a day in the life of a fish RVT looks like. Christine and Nora talk about their experiences as RVTs, how the role can be challenging but also incredibly rewarding, and just plain nerd out about veterinary care for fishes. The month of October is RVT Month in Canada, and the third week of October is National Veterinary Technician Week in the USA. We wish all credentialed technicians an incredible month, and all the best in your essential, diverse roles as part of the animal health team. Keep up the amazing work. This podcast is brought to you by the foxface rabbitfish. The foxface rabbitfish possess a name that seems like an oxymoron. After all, foxes eat rabbits. But the foxface rabbitfish refuses to be labeled. It swims around proudly, displaying its venomous spikes as if to say, “what are you going to do about it human? After all, you named me. In reality, I look more like a yellow raccoon. So whose fault is that?” Cheers to you, foxface rabbitfish, and we’re sorry for naming you. Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

Invasive Fish Species

9/8/2023
In this episode, “Invasive Fish Species”, we discuss ecosystems and the many fish species that end up thriving in new habitats, threatening other native species that live there. Who is usually at fault? Humans! We break down 6 types of invasive fish that either eat their competition or outcompete them for food. From gigantic carp that jump into your boat, to aquatic vampires that suck the blood of their fishy-lakemates, we get to know some of these scary invaders! We also cover the response of local governmental bodies and how they prevent further spread of invasives. If we could summarize one valuable lesson from the episode, it would be: Don’t release pet fish into the wild. This podcast is brought to you by the seven figure pygmy goby. With the shortest lifespan of any known vertebrate, these fish are the epitome of “life is too short”. As a result, these fish can be found bungee jumping, sky diving and doing a whole host of dangerous activities. Wouldn't you, if your life was only 59 days long? Here’s to you, seven figure pygmy goby. May you make every second count! Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!

8/25/2023
In episode 9, the crew breaks down part 2 of water chemistry! We discuss conductivity, hardness, alkalinity and why they are important for stabilizing your water and pH. We cover dissolved gasses, the dangers of extremely low oxygen and extremely high nitrogen in your system and what to do about it. Next, we talk about phosphates, their source and what happens when levels get high. Finally, we touch on iron, calcium and magnesium. To finish the episode we talk about ORP which we can all agree isn't something we actually care about, right? This podcast is brought to you by stonefish. Despite its name, if you step on a stonefish you will not get stoned. In fact quite the opposite. The venomous spine of stonefish has been sobering up beachgoers since before there were beaches.
