Wonderful Wool: The secrets of this amazing fluff


Listen Later

Wool is warm, absorbs water and odors, plus it’s flame resistant. In short, wool is amazing!


In this episode we explore how wool is different from hair. We go on a sheep safari at Cuyama Lamb in California, meet expert wool weaver Zefren Anderson and catch up with our favorite wooly hero Alpaca Jack.


Plus a wool-worthy mystery sound and an Moment of Um that answer the question: If Earth had rings like Saturn would we be able to see them through our windows?
