Award-winning author Mark Kurlansky joins Katrina and Guy to celebrate the Atlantic Cod, a "down to earth" fish that once reached sizes rivaling the men who braved dangerous seas to catch them. From blessing the Vikings with strong bones to influencing the settlement patterns of New England and more, this fish has a storied past and future yet to be written. We hope you enjoy!
