Summary: <p>Our old friend Lulu Miller — former Radiolab producer, co-creator of Invisibilia — has been obsessed by the chaos that rules the universe since long before it showed up as a global pandemic, and a few weeks ago, she published a book about it. It’s called <em>Why Fish Don’t Exist</em>. It’s part scientific adventure story, part philosophical manifesto, part chest-ripped-open memoir. Jad called her up to talk about how an obscure 19th century ichthyologist with a checkered past helped her find meaning in the world, and what she means when she says fish aren’t real.</p> <p>You can buy Lulu's book <em>Why Fish Don’t Exist</em> <a href="https://bookshop.org/books/why-fish-don-t-exist-a-story-of-loss-love-and-the-hidden-order-of-life/9781501160271" title="https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781501160271">here</a>.</p> <p><em>This episode was produced by Pat Walters. </em></p> <p><em>Special thanks to <a href="https://panamerican.bandcamp.com/music">Pan•American</a>.</em></p> <p>Support<em> Radiolab today at <a href="https://pledge3.wnyc.org/donate/radiolab-it/onestep/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=notes&utm_campaign=membership&utm_content=radiolab" target="_blank">Radiolab.org/donate</a>. </em> </p>
