Bilharziology (BLOOD FLUKES) with Anouk N. Gouvras
A LOST EPISODE! Three years in the making, this interview features vials of vile creatures, worm drama, febrile hallucinations, spooning, and unfortunate snacks. It has waited a long time to meet you, so let\u2019s get weird, take a trip back to summer of 2017 -- before Ologies existed -- and unearth one of the very first, never-before-heard interviews. Alie absolutely bungles her way through a chat with Dr. Anouk Gouvras, a London-based parasitologist studying the flatworms that cause schistosomiasis. Consider this an awkward baby photo of Ologies: before the show had any format or structure, and before your host learned how to properly use sound equipment. Stay tuned for a surprise ending to the conversation, and then follow Dr. Gouvras on Twitter and tell her you\u2019re glad to finally get an introduction.\xa0\n\nFollow Dr. Anouk Gouvras at Twitter.com/SciAnouk\n\nSponsor links: www.alieward.com/ologies-sponsors\n\nA donation went to the The Global Schistosomiasis Alliance: eliminateschisto.org\n\nMore links and info at alieward.com/ologies/bilharziology\n\nBecome a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a month: www.Patreon.com/ologies\n\nOlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, pins, totes!\n\nFollow twitter.com/ologies or instagram.com/ologies\n\nFollow twitter.com/AlieWard or instagram.com/AlieWard\n\nSound editing by Jarrett Sleeper of MindJam Media & Steven Ray Morris\n\nTheme song by Nick Thorburn\n\nSupport the show: http://Patreon.com/ologies
