Hope everyone is happy and healthy! The Zackowskis and Bunsen are staying safe and practicing good physical distancing.
On this week's podcast we have some fun science news about the tail of a giant dinosaur- The Spinosaurus! In Dog Science, a team of researchers are putting the snooter power of dogs to work to smell out asymptomatic COVID19 carriers! Our guest is the super cool maritime archaeologist Chanelle Zap. She delights us with tales of learning from the past, the science used in underwater archaeology and how the past can help the future heal.

This week on the Science Pawdcast we have a very exciting story about two teams of researchers having a battle of data and simulations about the eruptions on Kona, Hawaii in 2017! In Dog Science, we take a look at some fun science about how similar the dog brain is to the human brain when asleep. Our expert guest is the exceptional Dr. Meredith Palmer, a behavioral ecologist that studies the prey response of animals to predators. Her stories and science research is fascinating and inspiring. Below you'll find link to join her research team as a citizen scientist!

This week's podcast has such a fun mixed bag! In science news we talk about the possibility (pawsibility? HA!) of an slushy ocean on the dwarf planet Pluto! In Dog Science we have some stinky research about....poo and why dogs might eat it! Our expert guest is Dr. Patricia Corbett who is the director of The Middle Island Penguin Project- a wholesome and adorable biological conservation effort that has trained guardian dogs to protect the little penguins of Middle Island in Australia! A movie was made about the project called "Oddball"- check the trailer below!

This week on the Pawdcast we take a look at the debunking of the conspiracy that COVID-19 was made in a lab and released on the world. In Dog Science we have probably one of the best studies ever- PEAK CUTENESS in puppies! What? That's a science? It's a science. Our guest is the affable and amazing Dr. Nate Emery who delights us with stories about plants and his own dogs! As always we have trivia and then stories about Bunsen!

Hi Everyone!!!!
The Zackowskis (and Bunsen) are all healthy and socially distancing from the world. It isn't lost on us that being on a farm keeps us at an extra distance from everyone and we are very. Our hearts go out to those affected by this pandemic.
On this week's podcast our expert guest is Jeffrey Ward, an amateur birder from New York city who talks to us about birding, and where to find the birds in New York city (pre-COVID19). In science news we take a look at an amazingly crazy study of using cancer cell biology to help attach a limb from one mouse to another mouse! In Dog Science we have a fun article about dog pee! Ha! We have family time...er quarantine family time back too!

First off I hope everyone who listens is well and healthy. Things have completely changed for the Zackowskis and Bunsen up in Alberta Canada which you get glimpses of in the podcast.
We are all healthy and safe.
Our guest is Dr. Efra Rivera-Serrano, who studies viruses. Since our interview occurred in late January, we don't specifically talk about COVID19, but I hope you find the interview insightful into this microscopic non-living bundles of molecules. In Science News we talk about limiting the spread of COVID19 and in Dog Science we have a fun study which gives the super stats....of the annoying things dogs do!

In Science news, some exciting developments on the next rover to Mars is discussed! Our expert guest is the amazingly cool (ice pun) Dr. Mike MacFerrin a glaciologist! You'll be entertained and amazed by his exciting and educational stories about studying the large sheets of ice on our planet.
As always, trivia and family time at the end of the podcast!

Episode 6 takes a quick look at the accomplishments of Katherine Johnson, NASA mathematician and also the life of the brilliant Dr. Cecilia Payne, astrophysicist. Dog science delves into three mini studies which show how important dogs are for health outcomes. Our guest is the energetic and hilarious Naia Butler Craig, a rocket propulsion expert, who delights us with the science of rockets and some fun stories about her co-pilot (spoiler alert- it's her doggo, Tiffany).
As aways, fun trivia awaits at the end AND we have some heart warming stories about the dog that came before Bunsen in our family, the late golden, Kahlan.
