How does a gecko know there’s an earthquake? Van der Waals start shaking! This week, Jocelyn and Bradley are joined by AAAS IF/THEN Ambassador, herpetologist, and lizard lassoer Earyn McGee, who shares stories of some of her favorite lizards and the tricks they can do—including how Van der Waals forces help geckos climb walls. Earyn explains how radioisotopes in lizard toe clippings (!) are helping her learn more about their diet and the effects of climate change on desert ecosystems. She shares her challenges, struggles, and triumphs as a woman of color in spaces dominated by white men. The friends also discuss Earyn’s efforts to share her knowledge and love of lizards through her wildly popular Twitter game #FindThatLizard, and the wily lizard fugitive who inspired it. You can find Earyn on Twitter @Afro_Herper, and you can learn more about her amazing work at the links below: https://www.linkedin.com/in/earyn-mcgee-08494973https://www.patreon.com/FindThatLizardhttps://www.alieward.com/ologies/saurology The IF/THEN initiative: https://www.ifthenshecan.org/https://twitter.com/IfThenSheCan Subpar Parks: https://subparparks.com/Contact Science!

#38 | Earyn McGee | The Lizarding World of Afro Herper

Saurologist and professional lizard scientist Earyn McGee visits Alie to go on a little lizard hunt, then they hunker down to chat about everything from tiny chameleons to drooling dragons, venomous thiccbois, legless lizards, geckos’ antigravity grip, festering dragon mouths, gila monster sightings, close encounters with lions, tangles of snoozy lizards, virgin births, and blood shooting from eyeballs. We also discuss Earyn’s wildly popular #FindThatLizard Twitter game and she gives us all some sound advice on social anxiety and how to succeed in literally any field or ambition. You’ll be squinting at bushes looking for lizards and when you see one, you’ll salute it.
