The Code of the Flashing Firefly with Sara Lewis
^{00:13:38 | July 29th, 2016}

Why do fireflies flash their lights on and off, on and off? That’s what four curious kids want to know. Biologist Sara Lewis has studied fireflies for decades, and she’s cracked the code of their spectacular light displays. She explains why fireflies light up at night with a story of an undercover experiment. Sara tells us how she “spoke firefly” and learned that female fireflies are surprisingly hard to please. To learn more about fireflies, see Sara’s website and book at www.silentsparks.com. We’re proud that Tumble is a free podcast! But we need your support to keep it going and growing.

Mosquitoes: What are they good for?
^{00:12:35 | July 15th, 2016}

How and why do mosquitoes suck our blood? Why do their bites itch ALL the time? Why do some people get bitten more than others? And do these pesky and possibly dangerous insects serve any kind of useful purpose?

The Tale of Darwin and the Beagle with Áki Jarl Láruson
^{00:10:03 | July 15th, 2016}

We have a short and sweet summer episode for you! Charles Darwin is known as the father of evolution, but he got his start as a naturalist as a young man. He took an ambitious five year journey around the year, studying thousands of species of plants and animals. Many years after his return to England, he wrote The Origin of Species, one of the most famous and influential scientific books ever written. Áki Jarl Láruson tells the story, at a meeting of evolutionary biologists in Austin, Texas. Learn more at tumblepodcast.com Have you answered our listener survey?

How Does It Feel When Your Family Changes?
^{15:41 | Episode: 10 | July 8th, 2016}

Families grow and change. What does that feel like? We asked kids to tell us about their families, and we speak with author Amy Bloom about how love is not something that needs to be divided up, like a pie, but can expand and multiply.

The Voyage of the Ocean Trash with Jenni Brandon
^{00:15:46 | July 1st, 2016}

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a vast, swirling soup of trash, twice the size of Texas. Can we ever clean it up? That’s what 8 year old Ila wants to know. She lives in Hawaii and likes to pick up trash whenever she goes to the beach. She lives closer to the garbage patch than most of us. We talk to Jenni Brandon, a researcher who has been to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch – a place where few people will visit, but where we all have an impact. She tells us how surreal it is to sail through trash, why the garbage patch exists, and what scientists are doing about it.

Why Is The Sky Blue?
^{10:22 | Episode: 9 | June 24th, 2016}

Why is the sky blue? We get an answer from a science writer for NASA’s Space Place. And what are Saturn’s rings? Carolyn Porco of the Cassini Imaging Team explains.

The Case of the Invisibility Cloak with Andrea Alu
^{00:15:49 | June 17th, 2016}

What are invisibility cloaks made of, and when can we buy them in gift shops? That’s right, invisibility cloaks are not just for wizards anymore. We get into the very real science of invisibility with Dr. Andrea Alu. Dr. Alu is one of the leading scientists working on “cloaking.” We learn how scientists are playing with the laws of physics and optics to turn fantasy into scientific reality.

Big universe, big questions
^{00:16:17 | June 14th, 2016}

Have you ever wondered about what’s beyond the edge of the universe? Or maybe a better question: is there even an edge of the universe? And what does it mean that the universe is expanding? Nine-year-old Thea talks with astrophysicist Katie Mack to find answers to her many questions about the universe.
