Jaws turns 50, and Shark Week is here to settle the score. In this special episode, I share my own childhood shark trauma (yep, baths were terrifying), break down fun facts and production chaos behind Spielberg’s Jaws, and explore how the film became a cultural—and political—phenomenon.

Then, I sit down with marine biologist and Shark Week star Tom “The Blowfish” Hird from Surviving Jaws to ask the big questions:
🦈 Can sharks really chew through boats?
🩱 Are skinny dippers actually at risk?
🎬 What do experts really think about the most iconic shark movie of all time?

Whether you're a shark nerd, horror buff, or Spielberg fan, this episode swims straight into the deep end.
