NO LAST SEASON SPOILERS! In this episode, we explore the biology of the dragons of Game of Thrones. We interview Dr. Bret Tobalske, Director of the University of Montana Flight Laboratory. We chat about the evolution and biomechanics of flight, the physiology of large reptiles and the biology of fire breathing. I'm joined in The Lab by special guest co-host, actor and comedian Ted Limpert. Check out the latest and greatest of TBOSP!

Great episode! When you talked about gliders, you only mentioned lizards, but in Europe there is a species called Siberian flying squirrel, which can glide over a hundred meters. Looking forward for the next episode. Take care.
