Episode 23: Chowing down on insects with Dr. Marianne Shockley


Howdy, howdy bug lovers! On today's Halloween spectacular we meet up with Dr. Marianne Shockley of the University of Georgia! This episode is also a road-trip episode as Dr. Shockley and I crossed paths while we were both on campus at the University of Kentucky. 
Dr. Shockley was kind enough to take time and teach me about service learning and entomology outreach but we also spend a lot of time talking about eating bugs! 
So grab your favorite insect snack and tune in to Episode 23 of Arthro-Pod!

Arthro-Pod Episode 17: The Entomology Society Awakens!



Greetings listeners! Today we will be featuring some awesome and quick interviews that occurred at the 2015 national Entomological Society of America meeting in Minneapolis, MN! I was lucky enough to meet up with 24 different scientists who all had a great story to tell! It's a marathon show of over 2 hours so buckle in and get ready to learn about some of your fellow bug people!
