I don't remember them mentioning shrimp but it's possible they mention them in the segment about how different species perceive color. It's also the one that has the segment about the weird color descriptions in ancient texts.

I have another suggestion that, if you have any interest in history, is perfect for long drives: Dan Carlin's Hardcore History.

Yes, it has a dumb name, but it's a great podcast. A great intro, if you're willing to invest four and a half hours, is the "Prophets of Doom" episode, which is about the insane religious fervor, violence and civil war that gripped the German city of Munster during part of the protestant reformation. Some other of the podcast's highlights are the five-part "Wrath of the Khans" series of episodes and the four-part "Ghosts of the Ostfront".

It is the one with the shrimp. It comes up because dongs have 2 cones, humans have 3, butterflies have 5, and that weird, giant-clawed shrimp in the barrier reef has 15.

unintentional, but I'm not editing it.

Dogs. Though, I can't speak about the cone-count on dongs.

i like to think that my dong is color blind

so yeah this show is amazingly good....and i cannot believe you forgot about the shrimp Janszoon

and i agree the concept that people of ancient times may have been color blind simply because they had no way to reproduce certain colors was fascinating

started the Prophets of Doom and i'm really digging how this guy tells the story

again thanks to all of you for these great suggestions

He's really great. No gimmicks whatsoever, just a guy who is extremely good at telling historical tales in a compelling way. And that story is really fucked up. I'll be interested in hearing what you think of it when it's over.
