In this episode, we learn all about the amazing star-nosed mole. This super-smeller has one of the most incredible noses in the animal kingdom – and one of the oddest looking. It’s also an excellent hunter – and eater.
We’re back! With a brand new episode on the Cochineal Beetle.
Hello friends! It’s been a while! We’ve been on hiatus while the kids have been busy with various school and personal obligations, but we’re looking forward to putting out a new episode in May! In the meantime, please enjoy this rebroadcast of our cicada episode. Although this one is about Brood X, you’ll still find lots of similarities with the two new broods of cicadas emerging across the US right now.
We’re back with a new episode on the Portuguese Man of War. Wow, this is one cool animal/colony of organisms, with super long tentacles, a deadly sting, and an interesting backstory.
Here in Portland, Oregon, we’re lucky to live so close to a world-class science museum, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, which we all affectionately call OMSI. A few weeks ago, we got the chance to take a tour of their latest exhibit, Staying Alive: Defenses of the Animal Kingdom, with Sarah, the exhibit’s curator. We learned about all sorts of animal defenses, including speed, size, camoflauge, and lots of others. We hope you enjoy this virtual tour – and if you’re in Portland, definitely check out this exhibit! It’s up through April 2024.
Way back in our first episode – over 5 years ago now! – Grady chose cheetah for our first episode. We’ve learned a lot more about cheetahs since then, and introduced two new podcasters – Jaguar and Corduroy! So, we decided to bring you this reboot of our original episode. We hope you enjoy it.
These little arachnids pack a mean sting. But how dangerous are they? What does a scorpion sting feel like? And how many times can Jaguar evolve in one episode? Learn all about scorpions in our latest episode.
