  <title>267 - From Russia with Parasites</title>
  <description>00:00:00 - Ryan and Kelly are joined by Mikhail &amp;quot;Misha&amp;quot; Gopko to talk about his latest paper exploring  parasites controlling their fish host from inside their eye. Brain-infecting is one thing, but when you can see your parasite inside your own eyeball? That's just creepy. 00:24:44 - Kelly considers fibbing but opts for honesty as she drinks her water. Ryan has a Grolsch because he needs a resealable bottle for some home fermentation projects, and why buy empty beer bottles when you can just empty them yourself? 00:31:42 - Part 2 of our interview with Misha chats about the importance of parasite research, and what future projects Misha has in store. 00:49:51 - PaleoPOWs are a lot like parasites in bird guts, they always come out at the end. First up, we thank Terry R. for being a Patron of the show, which earns them a thesis title. There's is&amp;amp;nbsp;A Bird in the Hand: Mechanisms of manipulation of avian defecation by Diplostomum pseudospathaceum.&amp;amp;nbsp;Thanks, Terry! Kelly has a Facebook message from D Rex who ran half a marathon while enjoying hearing about Kelly's research in  episode 259. Way to go!&amp;amp;nbsp;Don't forget to pre-order Kelly's upcoming book&amp;amp;nbsp;Soonish,&amp;amp;nbsp;and check out Ryan's episode of the Out There podcast called &amp;quot;The Reluctant Outdoorsman&amp;quot;.
