Oh hey, it's the guy who runs the local board game night, hoping someone shows up at the pizza place to game. Allie Ward. Boy, hootie, I've wanted to cover this one forever. And it was all a matter of finding the right owl person. And we did it.

We got him. I have so much to say about this guest that I'm gonna list it in bullet points. Okay, so they got their PhD at the University of California, Berkeley. They have studied owls for over four decades. Their papers have been cited nearly 14,000 times.

I noticed that in their papers they thank their wife Katie and they seem genuinely in love. They came highly recommended by several other allogists, including Dr. Gavin Jones of the Fire Ecology episode. I had to beg this owl guest to be on this episode because they kept asking if they were right for it.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.
