Ever wondered why more girls than boys report symptoms of teenage depression? Could societal norms be pressuring boys into silence? We're hashing out this pressing issue and more in our latest episode.

We also take a detour into the cat brain and the ongoing debate over feline versus canine intelligence.

Our expert guest Dr. Carly York has so much to share!

There was a frog tub. That's how Dr. York jumped into the world of animal behavior.

From frogs, we will gallop our way to horses and slide effortlessly into the world of squids. Yes, squids! We'll exchange stories about these intriguing undersea creatures with Dr. York.   Ever been keen on knowing more about the African clawed frogs, or the looming threat presented by the Kitchred fungus to amphibians worldwide? Stay tuned.

We also take you on a fascinating journey through the world's largest zoo, the North Carolina Zoo, with Dr. York as our guide. She unveils the behavioral nuances of chimpanzees and elephants and shares truly captivating stories about their interactions and antics. Wrapping up with a viral horse moment and a deep dive into the awe-inspiring abilities of squids and octopuses, this episode is a roller-coaster ride into the world of animal behavior and psychology. No time for yawns, only wonder, and a whole lot of laughter in store. Don't miss out!
