“Criminal” Animals with Mary Roach, Nineties Nostalgia, Scamming Seniors

A certain doll movie is making millennials feel all kinds of nostalgic for the 90s. Financial exploitation of older generations is getting more prevalent – and trickier to spot. And V is joined by New York Times bestselling author Mary Roach, whose latest book explores what happens when animals do things that run a-fowl of human laws. They talk about making science writing fun and accessible, how Mary’s lack of a science background actually helps her with her science writing career, and why her least popular book is her favorite.   Follow Mary Roach at @mary_roach on Twitter.     Keep up with V on TikTok at @underthedesknews and on Twitter at @VitusSpehar.
