Episode description

If you've ever been in the Eastern half of the United States in the early summer, you know that the trees scream. The reason is cicadas! Nick and Ellie discuss why 2021 was a big year for cicadas, why their life history works the way it does, and why they only come up out of the ground every 13 years (hint: it's not to vote or go see an Avatar movie).
