Siblings unite! For this episode we talk MOTHS with our favorite theme song writer (and Courtney’s brother), Grayson Cody Harlow. Who knew moths and their host plants were so cool? Well… we did, but now you will too! Slight content warning, we talk adult beverages and Cody drops a minimal, non-bleepworthy cus. Episode Photo: Not Virginia Creeper nor a skeletonizer. 

Species Highlighted in this Episode: Luna Moth, Crecopia Moth, Virginia Creeper Sphinx Moth, Clearwing species
