#1 Whales: What Are They Saying?

Tom Mustill is a biologist, wildlife filmmaker and author of the book How to Speak Whale: A Voyage into the Future of Animal Communication. In this episode, we talk about the time a whale jumped on Tom, the unexpectedly popular album of whale song that galvanised the Save the Whales movement, and the researchers working on using artificial intelligence to understand whale communication.
