I would absolutely buy the "Justice for Tardigrades" shirt Maya mentioned.

2024-07-05 07:20:58 +0000 UTCOh god thank you so much, now i'm much less scared. I mean, i didn't think they -actually- sent a polar bear to space ๐ We'd know about that! Just a poor monke ๐ญ I did think though that they caught one and tested it or something. See, i'm all traumatized from the Mole Rat Experiments ๐ญ

2024-07-04 18:42:45 +0000 UTCI looove the Podcast, i just really wish you guys didn't talk about science experiments that hurt animals or put it at the very end. I am far too sensitive for those and the Naked Mole Rat hypoxia experiment explanation already made me unsure if i wanna listen again. I will definitely skip the polar bear Segment today but sometimes i listen while driving and can't really skip.

2024-07-04 17:33:49 +0000 UTCI wonder, maybe the frog that can't dig used to live some place rocky or where the ground never thaws enough to dig a useful depth. Also, i wonder if there are crevices below the antarctic ice where bugs like that could survive, waiting to wake back up once we've melted their icy prison... ๐
