Eric interviews Myke Clarkson, a producer who has successfully pitched a new shark competition series to Netflix titled "All the Sharks," set to release on July 4th. He explains the show's unique "Amazing Race" meets "Pokemon" format, where teams document and photograph various shark species for points to win money for charity. Clarkson highlights the challenges of filming across six countries with a large crew and emphasizes the show's goal to shift public perception of sharks from scary to exciting, promoting conservation and accidental learning. He also briefly discusses his book on aquatic snakes, which supports a conservation grant, and encourages viewers to watch and share the Netflix series to ensure future seasons and more wildlife-positive programming.
