    The beauty of ‘filthy’ creatures
    This loving paean to the world of invertebrates is a gem among podcasts! Tom’s gentle voice and deep emotional attachment to and curiosity about spiders, flies and molluscs makes his discussions with fellow enthusiasts a joy to listen to. I love the speculation about the life experience of these beings, and their relation to the skewed human perspective that labels them inferior. And the episode on cockroaches with Dr. Babits is an absolute treat!

    The podcast I’ve been hoping for.
    What I love most is the host’s attitude toward invertebrates, it’s clear he has an in-depth understanding of them, but the show doesn’t feel overly science-y, it’s still accessible to the casual bug lover. It’s also not too anecdotal or sensational. The host is very good about not anthropomorphizing animals, and presents information in a way that assumes the listener is at least somewhat educated.

    Finally, an Invert Podcast!
    I am super stoked for this podcast about the coolest of animals (inverts, ofc) - it’s the perfect blend of informal and funny, versus thoughtful and informative. A great listen, especially while sorting and IDing inverts under a microscope :)
