Episode description

Kristen Meinzer and Josh Gondelman trade sleepy animal facts and royal trivia.


What You'll Hear:

Birthday Blues: Josh reveals that all racehorses share the same birthday—and Kristen connects the dots to royal “official” birthdays (plus, who in the monarchy would win a dance-off).

Egg-laying Oddballs: From platypuses to echidnas, they marvel at the rare mammals that lay eggs—and how Australia seems to collect them all.

Planet of the Animals: The two ponder evolution, flightless parrots, and what animals must think of us hairless, oddly-dressed humans.
