At some point, we will get back on track. But listen as we discuss how early trees might have grown, flies that are attracted to the complex mating calls of a Panamanian tungara frog, Mediterranian nudibranhs that engage in kleptopredation, and a surprisingly cool study of how mosquitos avoid getting swatted after eating.

Late as usual, but here we are talking about just what are gravitational waves, fossil salamanders, quantum communication in real settings, tree lobsters, drug manufacturing, and Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

Life might get in the way, but we have a show! Learn about the Nobel Prizes this year, yelling caterpillars, pesticides in honey, algae blooms in Ohio again, robots learning martial arts, and rat evolution.

Some damned internet problems will not stop the return of Matt to the show! He returns from Costa Rica, a deadline, and is very fortunately back home after hurricane Irma. He starts to knock some of that podcasting rust off with some sea snakes that adapt to pollution, robots that are made of DNA this time, and strange colonial spider behavior.

Better late than never right? Jason and regular Kelyn talk about some light-hearted science with sharks that have friends, the end of Cassini, a robot that aims licorice at your face, and how squirrels organize their winter hoards.

The first double digit episode is celebrated by having a one man show! Jason talks a short bit about a new application for VR, and an extension of our nanomachine talks a couple episodes back.

In this episode, Jason is joined again by Kelyn Carlson to talk to Karie Altman about her PhD work on the thermal biology of host parasite interactions in amphibians. We also talk about how bees recognize the number zero, the first flower, nanomachines, GIFs and E. coli, sea lice, and unmeltable ice cream.

We have ourselves a late episode. Blame the AirBnB where Jason stayed. Listen in as Matt talks about his trip to Austin and Jason for his trip to Ecuador for conferences.

An early episode as Matt heads to Austin to present his work about snakes. Listen as we chat about the funniest wildlife photos, how France is going to start KILLING it in climate change and public health, recent findings from Saturnian moon Enceladus, and how sea spiders circulate oxygen.

Jason and Matt find a second guest, Kelyn Carlson, to talk about teaching and cats. Listen as we talk about black holes, tactile computer models, finches that use cigarettes to ward of parasites, possibly crazy cat ladies, InspiroBot, Boaty McBoatface, and the magnetic fields of Uranus.
