Nichole and Evan take a trip to Belize and sit in with drummers carrying on the African Garifuna Drumming tradition and gearing up for the "Battle of the Drums." Evan talks with bluegrass pioneer Ron Thomason of the Dry Branch Fire Squad about mandolins, guitars, horses, and how to use your own body as a drum. You’ll learn the story of the Voyager Golden Record, a record all about human experience on Earth that was sent to space in the hopes aliens might one day find it. As of now it’s 15 billion miles away in interstellar space! In Cryptid Corner Evan investigates the Fossegrim, a harmless, damp Norwegian creature who’s extremely good at playing the fiddle. On top of that you’ll hear all the usual segments you’ve come to know and love: Animal Call, Grandparent Story, Favorite Sound, jokes and a riddle.
