About this episode

This episode explores the significance of pet fish in our lives and their journey from water to our homes.

What's the difference between a fish and a plant? Nothing? Or maybe everything? We've all had a goldfish in our lives at one point or another. But the question is why? Why did we bring these animals into our lives? How did a creature that belong in water, jump into a tiny bowl in our homes and occasionally into our hearts? Come with me as I dive in deep into one person's experience with having fish as a "pet" and that fish's journey on earth. And we'll find out just what the point of a fish really is!
