Matt and Andy make the first stop of their Australian tour in Cairns thanks to the generosity of Inspiring Australia and The Australian Society for Parasitology to talk to Dr. Michael Smout about the healing power of worm spit and Dr. Claudia Cobos about peptides found in sunflowers that can be used to treat diseases of the gut. And thanks to James Cook University for the tour of their Eduquarium to see gorgeous marine life, a lot of which can kill you.

Portlanders can come and see Probably Science live this Sunday, February 17th at 5pm at The Commune PDX as part of the Listen Up festival.
