EP. 113 — Jaws

Amy & Paul take a bite out of 1975’s blockbuster Spielberg creature feature Jaws! They take a close listen to John Williams’ iconic score, praise the way Spielberg adds emotional stakes to the story, and ask whether Jurassic Park does much of what Jaws does, but better. Plus: Hannah Medd, founder of the American Shark Conservancy, weighs in on whether dolphins are bigger jerks than sharks.
