I came across something that I thought my fellow insect lovers here would enjoy. I've started listening to some podcasts lately, including some of the "Joe Gardener" ones. He's the host of the tv show "Growing a Greener World", which I recently "re-discovered". I'd tried it when it first came on PBS many years ago and didn't really like it at the time. Now it seems to have a much different vibe, and he's going all out with it. The tv show episodes are on You-Tube as well which is nice since my local PBS only airs the show on one of their non HD substations. Gardening shows need to be in HD! He also has the podcast where they often go deeper into subjects. The blog I'm linking to lets you listen to the podcasts and also adds into supplemental material and photos to go with it.
Anyways, I just listened to the two on beneficial insects in the garden and really enjoyed them. His guest was Jessica Walliser, who's written books on the subject and is really good at telling stories and explaining things in the podcast format. There's also some on birds that I haven't listened to yet, and lots of general gardening ones.

I'm kind of late to the whole podcast thing in general, but am finding I like to listen to them when doing some boring task when I can't really be looking at a screen to follow a program. Also good for late at night when I'm not quite ready for sleep but my eyes are too tired or dry to read or watch tv.
