“So … Chuck, Emilio … apparently there’s this Joe guy that looks like me?
What’s that all about?”
The tribe has spoken. Apparently I am Willem Dafoe, but not completely terrifying. Thanks for not focusing on the crooked-ass fingers of a former goalkeeper.

I'm Joe Hanson, Ph.D. biologist and host/writer of PBS Digital Studios' It's Okay To Be Smart. Check out my "Episode Extras" here. There's a lot of amazing science out there. Let's go discover it together.
