Several members of our EntoPOC team had an interview with Bug Talk.
"This podcast is created by the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University. It's hosted by multiple co-hosts and its goal is to introduce the person behind the scientist. You will hear conversations with entomologists and scientists to learn more about their lives, what inspires them and what interests them outside of work. Follow the podcast on Twitter or Instagram @bugtalkpodcast. You can direct message us on Twitter if you'd like to reach out to us." - Bug Talk website |

Our own Dominic Evangelista did an interview with Grubbing in the Filth.
"If it lacks a backbone, we're interested. In this podcast, we are exploring the world of invertebrates, discovering the amazing lives they lead, and thinking carefully about our relationships with these much-maligned creatures. With the help of experts, we are lifting stones, peering into the water and grubbing in the filth." - Grubbing in the Filth website |

Our own Jessica Ware was interviewed about the the 17-year cicada invasion in summer 2021 on StarTalk.
"The StarTalk podcast network bridges the intersection between science, pop culture and comedy with clarity, humor and passion. Through our various shows, we explore captivating subjects such as space travel, extra-terrestrial life, the Big Bang, the role science plays in people’s lives, the future of our Earth and the environment, the science behind the most iconic sports plays in history, and breaking news from the universe. Or, as our host Neil deGrasse Tyson says, 'Everything under the sun; Or rather under the universe!” for an audience of 'All the people who never knew how much they’d love learning about space and science.' Tyson and our other show hosts are joined each week by comedian co-hosts, celebrities, and other special guests." - StarTalk website |
