What do we really know about octopuses? For starters, they don't have 8 tentacles...they're called arms. Did you know they had 3 hearts? 9 brains? And that some people believe they aren't originally from Earth? If you've been lucky enough to catch the Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher”, then you also know they are capable of so much more than spraying ink. Join Peter and Richard as they welcome Pippa Ehrlich, the director of "My Octopus Teacher”. Together they take a deep dive in the kelp forests of Southern Africa and get a lesson or two from one of the most fascinating creatures on Earth.

NOTE: What If Discussed is on hiatus. The former producer and co-host of "What IF Discussed" asked and tried to answer lots of question on the show along with the top names in science. Join him now as he looks to go deeper, ask bigger questions with world thought leaders with nuance, objectivity and context on "A Third Way". - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK1ZkAdeQ6UGJ_duA2FzEfg
