On todays episode I sit down to chat with Grant Genova whose architecture firm is called fresh fruit and architecture. Grant has an interesting story, one that takes him to places across Canada and the united states. His life starts in Toronto but now he calls St. John's his home.

The ocean is a vast universe of light and darkness. In its mystery there are many creatures we know and love. Whales, dolphins,  seals and so on. But like so many famous creatures here on land, there, behind the scenes is a plethora of staff that hold the whole production together. Today we are going to learn about one of those lesser appreciated staff members. The tiny but important Capelin. Victoria Neville - is the Senior Specialist of marine ecosystems and fisheries at World Wildlife Fund. She is my friend and the voice of the Capelin. Please enjoy this conversation.
