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.

Previous Episode

Next Episode

Cochineal Beetle

We're back! With a brand new episode on the Cochineal Beetle.

This beetle has an ancient past - and has been used to do everything from make ink for the Aztecs to coloring Starbucks Frappuccinos. It also has a really cool trick to stay cool in the heat. Plus, we learn some cool facts about the male beetle - and it's lack of an important body part.

Thanks for your patience during our busy spring!

We'd love to hear from you - [email protected]
