The early Earth was quite different to the world we know of today. What creatures lurked in the oceans 500 million years ago?

Dr Cat describes the evolution of life on Earth from the very beginning. Then, palaeontologist Alyssa Fjeld comes onto the arthropod-cast to chat about ancient bugs that were around during the “Cambrian explosion”, when life got wilder and whackier. Dig deep into Earth’s ancient past with us.

Originally aired 16th September, 2025
