Today's episode is a deep dive with Prof Andrew Pask — the thylacine guy. He's head of the TIGRR lab at the University of Melbourne, and he's already raised around $40 million to support his lab's work to de extinct the thylacine.

As you'll hear, he's incredibly passionate about conducting comms and engagement and our conversation touches on everything from how his side hustle turned into a $40M research endeavour, to dealing with criticism and when things go wrong, and the importance of community engagement.
