Image description: A scrrencap of a Tweet of the back of Dr. McAnulty’s Squidmobile (black compact SUV decorated with squid drawings and a hotline number to text 1-833-SCI-TEXT) with the caption “Should I? I mean they gotta be serious if their license plate says squids.”

THE SQUIDMOBILE HAS ARRIVED. Get in losers; we’re talking cephalopods. Yes, she drives a vehicle with squid all over it and encourages people to text her, and we have this encore episode to prove it. The world's most impassioned squid nerd, Sarah McAnulty, gets locked in a basement with Alie to talk about cephalopods, alien DNA, camouflage, invisibility cloaks, why cute things make us bonkers, terrible mating strategies, cute and clever ones and why she is so charmed by squid. Also addressed: Philly accents and the Kraken. And why I am putting out an encore episode from a parking garage.

The squid facts hotline can be reached at 1-833-SCI-TEXT aka 1-833-724-8398
