In part 2 of this episode, Ellie tells Katie all about mountain goats (which are not actually goats). For some reason, Katie and Ellie get into a fight about Fahrenheit and Celsius. Ellie gets very confused and upset, and it goes on for a really, really long time. Email: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.comTwitter: @IntoxecologyInstagram: @IntoxecologyWebsite: intoxecology.com FIND US ON PATREON

This week, Ellie and Katie kick off the episode with some light-hearted talk about dog death. Katie then tells Ellie all about blue whales and their weird wannabe-teeth made out of fingernail stuff. Ellie introduces Katie to Clive, our resident skeleton in the wellington, and for some reason there is a lengthy discussion about ghosts. This episode has been split into 2 parts because Ellie and Katie have no concept of space or time. Lots of swearing and tangents, as always. Email: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.comTwitter: @intoxecologyInstagram: @intoxecologyWebsite: www.intoxecology.comPLEASE FIND US ON PATREON

We're BACK, and we're sorry for the hiatus; we'll never leave you again, we promise. In this episode, Ellie tells Katie all about the polar bear before Katie discusses the giant tube worm. For some reason, talking about polar bears leads to a lengthy discussion about Neanderthals and how Ellie has more Neanderthal DNA than the general populous. Also, if you brought a giant tube worm up to the surface, a polar bear could probably smell it from a mile away. Lots of swearing and tangents, as always. Website: intoxecology.comTwitter: @intoxecologyInstagram: @intoxecologyGmail: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.com(Please) find us on Patreon!

This week, for the first time ever, Katie and Ellie struggle with their introductory ramblings. Katie then tells Ellie all about narwhals and their toothy horns, before Ellie talks about rats and how they help us in research and in plague-acquisition. Katie informs everyone about the plague pit in her in-laws back garden and Ellie makes one of her best puns yet. Lots of swear-words and tangents, as always. Apologies for Katie's audio at points, we thought we'd got the hang of this whole podcasting thing but apparently we have not.Website: www.intoxecology.comGmail: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.comInstagram: @intoxecologyTwitter: @intoxecologyFind Intoxecology on Patreon!

This week, Ellie and Katie welcome a very special guest, Ellen Weatherford (Just the Zoo of Us), to Intoxecology. Ellen gives us a rundown of an animal close to her heart – the pangolin – before telling us about our animal of the week, the Florida manatee (... it has fingernails!!). True to form, there are lots of tangents and swear-words. Expect discussions of Disneyworld, nipples, and, somehow, Happy Feet (again).Listen to Ellen on her much better podcast Just the Zoo of Us!Website: www.intoxecology.comGmail: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.comInstagram: @intoxecologyTwitter: @intoxecologyFind Intoxecology on Patreon (please!!)

This week, Katie and Ellie welcome friend and fellow podcaster, Sean Milnes (Fowl Mouths Podcast), to Intoxecology. Sean is a keen birder from Connecticut who's hopped on this week's episode to tell us all about the Fisher Cat (which is, to everyones surprise, not a bird, and also, somehow less surprisingly, not a cat either). Turns out, they're bigger than you think and could conceivably eat your baby if you leave it unsupervised in the woods. Lots of tangents and swear-words, as always.Check out Fowl Mouths Podcast on any and all streaming sites! Website: www.intoxecology.comEmail: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.comTwitter: @IntoxecologyInstagram: @IntoxecologyFind us on Patreon!

Episode 13 has been split into 2 parts because Katie and Ellie do not understand the concept of time. The hosts kick off the episode by, unsurprisingly, talking about things they have no business talking about - the stock market(?) and then Ellie tells Katie all about the domestic dog and the problem with pedigree breeds. This episode gets a little science-heavy as Ellie talks about inbreeding depression. As always, lots of swearing and tangents. And as always, we're sorry.

We welcome a very special guest and Intoxecology's own resident virologist, Tim Passchier (made famous by Episode 8: Tim's Three Critiques). Tim tells us about his work looking at how viral genomes are packaged, and grills Katie on why she personally cannot convert the US to the metric system. Tim then tells us about Pteropus bats and their role as viral reservoirs, before giving us a run-down of how the Coronavirus vaccine works and why we categorically should not be eating bats. Many, many tangents and lots of swearing. Email: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.com Website: www.intoxecology.com Twitter: @intoxecology Instagram: @intoxecology

Ellie kicks off this weeks episode by telling Katie about how bad her day was after eye-butting the kitchen table. Ellie then dips her toe into freshwater and talks about the wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) and their freeze tolerance. Katie then discusses her twitter handles namesake and favourite animal order - cuttlefish (Sepiida). Lots of tangents and swearing. We're sorry.

In this episode, Ellie and Katie welcome Inez Hein as the first ever guest on Intoxecology! Inez currently works in the environmental sector, helping with forest restoration in the UK. Inez tells the hosts about her life and education in the US and The Netherlands before she moved to the UK, and then tells us all about her favourite animal and unlikely college roommate: the opossum (Didelphidae). They have thirteen nipples. Note: the structure of bird feathers can be responsible for blue/green tones and iridescence

Ellie and Katie kick off the episode by discussing Tim's Three Critiques, before talking about the Portuguese man o war and the Tasmanian devil. Katie reveals that she is, in fact, a blanket octopus puppeteering amputated man o war tentacles. Seven Pounds spoilers for some reason, and some unexpected thylacine chat. Also, who would eat who first in the event of an emergency? Lots of tangents and swearing, as always. Email: intoxecologypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @intoxecology Instagram: @intoxecology

Ellie and Katie start the episode by talking about the impact that fireworks have on wildlife, and Ellie discusses her backup plan of moving to America to sell luxury real estate. Katie tells Ellie about the bio-fluorescent Hawksbill turtle and their dining preference of toxic sponge meat, and Ellie talks about another one of her spirit animals – the racoon.

In this episode, Ellie talks about the ecology and behaviour of the arctic fox, and accidentally finds herself on a furry costume website. Katie further dissuades Ellie from entering the ocean by talking about the deadly blue-ringed octopus. Beans finally makes his podcast debut. Lots of swearing, tangents and political despair.

Katie and Ellie kick off the episode by discussing Netflix’s new documentary ‘The Social Dilemma’ and their looming feelings of existential dread. Katie brings the podcast back to science by talking about great hammerhead sharks and their courtship and hunting strategies. Ellie talks about three-toed sloths and their unusually polite toilet behaviour. Lots of swearing and unexpected (but not really) social and political commentary.

Katie and Ellie channel their middle-aged white man and talk about things they have no business talking about. Katie talks about nudibranchs going arse-over-tits, and Ellie talks about clitoromegaly in the spotted hyena. Ellie becomes infatuated with sea bunnies. As usual, lots of incoherent rambling and swear words.

Ellie and Katie introduce themselves. Ellie talks about her fieldwork in the Seychelles and her favourite bird, Greg. Katie talks about her masters research into the impact of zooxanthellae on anemone behaviour, and her current work at a non-profit. Ellie sits too close to the microphone and has a very limited concept of volume control. Lots of incoherent rambling and swear words. We’re learning and we’re sorry. **Corrections** Cousin was actually bought and turned into a nature reserve in 1968 (not 1982). It was then restored to native vegetation by 1982.
