Welcome to Episode 121! Today we are introducing a new series on the crustaceans! In today's show, we'll dive into the early evolutionary history of the crustaceans, and take a closer look at a handful of the most basal groups in the clade. 

The Animorphs encounter the Mercora, a lovable, crablike people attempting to build a home on Earth, and immediately become conscripted into someone else's war.  What does the introduction of the Mercora tell us about the series' stance on nonviolence? Is Cassie doomed to be hardened to violence and harming others over the course of this series? Is Tobias inevitably going to become an Alloran type, willing to sacrifice the well-being of the few for the needs of the many? Are the Mercora more or less huggable than the Taxxons?Support the showSupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anidorks@anidorkspod on twitter! Send questions to anidorkspod@gmail.comHey!

In this episode of Flavors Unknown, I sit down with Chef Tony Nguyen, the Executive Chef behind the acclaimed Crustacean Restaurant in Beverly Hills—an upscale destination redefining Modern Asian cuisine with elegance and innovation.Born and raised in St. Louis to a Vietnamese family, Chef Tony shares how his upbringing, rich with cultural heritage and culinary storytelling, laid the foundation for his creative vision. We explore his earliest food memories, the influence of French technique on Vietnamese cuisine, and how cooking shows lit the spark that would eventually take him to culinary school—and into some of the country's most prestigious kitchens.Chef Tony also opens up about the realities of the restaurant world: the importance of mentorship, why culinary school still matters, and how he's navigating a rapidly evolving industry.

Ever wonder how a brain becomes a tentacle smoothie? Curious about undead Alhoons? Or just need combat tips in case an Elder Brain crashes your next campaign? We've got ALL the answers—plus a few tentacles. Tune in for laughs, lore, and life advice from the terrifying Ill-Sensei (now accepting students!). Buckle up for horror and hilarity—you don't want to miss this one! Listen now before your brain becomes lunch! Summary PARENTAL ADVISORY - EXPLICIT CONTENT: In this gut-busting episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, our fearless hosts dive headfirst into the creepy, crawly, brain-slurping world of Mindflayers!

If you've ever wanted to know how to survive an Elder Brain attack or how to pronounce Ulitharid without sounding like you're sneezing, this episode has you covered.

Short Lifespans and Cannibalism: They live only about 100 years, which often leads to cannibalism in their society. Absorbed Consciousness: When Mind Flayers die, their consciousness is absorbed by the Elder Brain. Mind Flayer Experiments: Strange creatures like Intellect Devourers and Cranium Rats are products of their terrifying experiments. Undead Variants: Alhoons are Mind Flayers that become undead through a dark process. Hive Mind Awareness: Stealth is nearly impossible against Mind Flayers due to their shared hive mind. Fragile but Deadly: Fighting them requires quick action and high intelligence saves because of their physical frailty. Elder Brain Command: Elder Brains are the central force controlling Mind Flayer colonies. Humor vs. Horror: Despite the terrifying nature of Mind Flayers, their lore is often discussed with dark humor. No Worship or Souls: Mind Flayers lack the concept of worship and do not possess souls. Central Antagonists: They make excellent primary villains or complex allies in tabletop campaigns. Good-Aligned Possibilities: Good-aligned Mind Flayers present unique narrative opportunities.

In the latest episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we explore the charm of Illithids and their Elder Brain overlords (they're like the worst bosses ever) Thralls? Check. Brain buffets? Check. Cooking tips for keeping your creepy squid colony fed? You betcha! Oh, and we might've figured out how to turn Miss Frizzle into your next D&D character... because why not? Tune in if you dare! But, um, watch your head... Summary Get ready for Spooktober with the RPGBOT.Podcast as the gang dives into the tentacled depths of mindflayers, D&D's creepiest brain munchers. This episode is a buffet of hilarious and insightful takes on everything from the origins of the Illithid Empire to their Elder Brain overlords and weird thrall-based society. But it's not all gloom and doom! The hosts bring their signature humor, even when discussing the highbrow topic of mindflayer cuisine (spoiler: brains are on the menu). They also tackle the real challenge of keeping a mindflayer colony fed—it's tough out there for a brain-eating squid-monster! Plus, if you've ever wondered how to channel your inner Miss Frizzle from The Magic School Bus into your next D&D character, they've got you covered. So grab your thinking caps (but watch out for mind flayers) and tune in for an episode that's as spooky as it is side-splitting!

Elder Brain Authority: Elder Brains are central to mind flayer society, serving as both leaders and key figures in their colonies. Colony Structure: Mindflayer colonies are organized around the Elder Brain, with a hierarchical system centered on its influence. Role of Thralls: Thralls play a crucial role in the daily operations and control within mind flayer societies. Conquest Ambitions: Mindflayers are driven by a desire to dominate the multiverse once more, seeking to reclaim their former glory. Disturbing Powers: The nature of mindflayer power, from psychic abilities to mind control, is deeply unsettling. Knowledge & Power: Mindflayers have a unique approach to both knowledge and power, driven by their insatiable hunger for control.

Cultural Perspectives: Shifting cultural views can alter our understanding and perception of creatures like mind flayers. Reproduction Complexity: The reproduction process for mind flayers is complex and deserves further exploration within their lore.

It's the start of our sixth season! And we've got some projects going on. The Traveling Light anthology, which we Kickstarted -- with the help of many of you listeners! -- at the start of the fifth season, is now almost complete! We've finished the page proofs and are about to turn this into a Real Book. In this episode, you'll get to hear from the anthology authors about their amazing, exciting, super-creative contributions! And if you missed the Kickstarter, fear not! It will be available for purchase in both physical and ebook form, and you'll be able to pre-order that soon. So what are we launching this year? A Patreon! That's right, we are finally creating a way for our magnificent, lovely listeners to support the podcast. We're hoping this will just help us cover some basic costs of podcast hosting, graphic design, maybe even putting together a Real Website! And in exchange, patrons will get some exclusive content and merch. We've got four tiers: Beetles, Crustaceans, Megafauna, and Kaiju. If you'd like to help us keep doing what we're doing (and maybe even zhuzh it up a bit more), check them out! And of course, this podcast is its own ongoing massive project! We are so, so grateful to all of our amazing guests who have joined us to talk about so many different aspects of worldbuilding. We're thrilled to be able to have these conversations about craft and imagination, and we're delighted that so many listeners enjoy it, too.  And hey! If you want to see us, we're gonna be some places! Hopefully the full team will be in Glasgow for WorldCon, August 8-12, and some of us will be in Austin for ArmadilloCon, September 6-8. (And if you'd like to help make sure Marshall gets to WorldCon, he's running a GoFundMe!) Voting is also still ongoing for the Hugo Awards, and we would love your consideration for Best Fancast! Because winning in Scotland would be really fun. Thanks for all your support! Here's to another great season!

This week we are literally diving into the topic of crustaceans and how they're related to insects, but that's not all. Let's also take a closer look at lobsters and learn some interesting history.    Patreon -> https://www.patreon.com/user?u=46499107 IG: https://www.instagram.com/insects4fun/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085443614825 Email: Insectsfordummies@gmail.com    Music from Lofi Girl with featured artists: HM Surf, and Purrple Cat   Transcript:    Welcome to episode 63 of Insects for fun! Only today we're not talking about insects exclusively. This is a bridge episode which is going to link us into all further episodes relating to crustaceans because there's a lot and I don't want to have to keep explaining their relationship every time. SO! Here we go (underwater bubbles)    Remember that episode I did talking about how not all insects are bugs but all bugs are insects? Well here's a new one for ya. All insects are actually crustaceans, but not all crustaceans aren't insects (HUH) and no, spiders, scorpions, millipedes, centipedes, and horseshoe crabs are not crustaceans which means that yes, lobsters, shrimp and crabs are more closely related to insects than arachnids, and those other creepy crawly arthropods. Let's go back in time to where it all began which would be the Cambrian period. At this time the earth did have land masses but Pangea was not a thing, and these land masses were very very bare. Almost all life was still in the ocean and it was here that Crustaceans first came into existence. So what do Crustaceans and Insects have in common then? Well, for starters they both rely on an exoskeleton made of chitin, and they both start out as an egg and go through a series of molts to reach their adult stage. They also both have compound eyes and antennae! Yeah that's right, even crabs have antennae, and crazier still is that crustaceans actually have two pairs of antennae unlike insects which only have one. But the similarities go deeper than this, and by that I'm referring to their insides. Both of them share the same proteins for transporting oxygen, and they're circulatory systems are also controlled by the same peptides. I think it's safe to say that yes. Insects are indeed crustaceans, and when we eat shrimp, crab and lobster, we're basically just eating big ocean bugs.    But are Lobsters really just roaches of the sea? How did that myth even start in the first place? Believe it or not there was a time when Lobsters were actually referred to as the poor man's chicken or even cockroaches of the sea in the United States. Back in the 1600 and 1700s the full potential of a lobster's taste had yet to be unlocked and people really didn't know how delicious they could be. As a result piles and piles of lobsters would wash up on the shores and people didn't know what to do with them because they certainly weren't going to eat them. But the reason lobsters began to really pique people's interest started with the transportation system. As more and more railroads were being built, and more and more passengers were riding trains for longer periods of time; food had to be made available and what better than to offer cheap and common Lobster! More and more people began eating lobster and became curious about the methods one could cook it, and now here we are. Lobster is considered a delicacy and fetches a high price.    So now that we have the knowledge of what a crustacean is, and the history of lobsters in the states. Let's look at what exactly a Lobster is, and come to a conclusion as to whether they're indeed overpriced cockroaches or not.    Not all lobsters are the same, and many crustaceans which have lobster in the name are not true lobsters. Today we are looking specifically at clawed lobsters in the family Nephropidae of which there are around 54! Not too many which is kind of surprising, and I think there must be more as well considering they all say we know more about our solar system than we do about the oceans on earth. These clawed lobsters have 10 legs but only 8 are used for walking. The front three pairs all have claws, so yeah the big claws we crack open and eat are just one pair of 3 legs!    Now here's where it starts to get quite familiar… the body of a lobster contains three segments. The head, thorax, and abdomen, but with most crustaceans, the head and thorax are fused into something called a cephalothorax! Lobsters also contain large compound eyes, and get this, three pairs of antennae… yeah! The two really long ones we see are used for feeling the ground and the others are for picking up chemicals scents in the water. Some of you might be wondering what the smaller leg things are under the tail of a lobster, and those are called pleopods or swimmerets and they help with swimming! In general clawed lobsters are on the larger side between 25 - 50cm or 10 and 20inches, I mean I'm sure many of us have seen one form of them before, but it does vary depending on where the species lives. For example deep sea lobsters will naturally be smaller in comparison to a big ol red maine lobster for example. The lobster in Japan are also on the smaller side, but I find that most things other than insects tend to be smaller over here.   And speaking of where they live… these lobsters can be found in all the oceans on sandy floors, rocky bottoms, muddy floors, as close as the shoreline to out past the continental shelf into the deep with larger lobsters being further out. Lobsters usually get around by walking along the floor but they can be pretty speedy when they need to! A lobster's escape involves flicking the tail and pushing itself backwards with a max speed recorded at 11mph. They don't just use their legs for walking though. They actually taste with the front walking legs. They also chew with their stomach, not their mouth. They've got something called a gastric mill which is basically a food compactor in their stomach that grinds down everything. Now of course a lobster can't just swallow things whole the way birds often do, and that's where the large claws come in. These guys usually break open and rip apart their meal to get it into smaller bite size chunks before getting further crushed in the stomach. The claws can use up to 100 pounds of pressure and are the go to cracking open and eating crabs, clams, mussels and sometimes… even other lobsters.    Now let's take a look at the longevity of a lobster because rumors are that these creatures are insanely resilient, just like a roach, and it is also rumored that lobsters are biologically immortal! Let's take a look at the facts. Humans and other animals are designed to degrade because as our cells divide and continue to be born again, a small piece of them doesn't come back until eventually the cells just simply stop dividing. This small tip at the end of our cell's coding is called a telomere. If we're to think of this in fishing terms it would be like never being able to replace the line on your rod, and you don't have a swivel, so you need to cut your line a tiny bit every time you change lures and that line is only getting shorter until you simply can't fish anymore. Now lobsters on the other hand do have a swivel which means they can keep swapping out lures without having to take any line away and this swivel is an enzyme called telemorase. So yeah. Lobsters are in fact biologically immortal. They actually get more fertile with age, so then why do lobsters die? Unfortunately Lobsters have to keep shedding their skin as they age and grow, and to do this they require more energy and calories, so instead of dying from old age, lobsters actually die from exhaustion. At a certain point they simply cannot get enough calories to replace their shells and that's the end of it. So in our earlier example the  fishing rod of a lobster gets more and more thick until eventually you can't even lift it anymore to go fishing. They can also regenerate limbs, but it's going to take some time. For example a one pound lobster will need about 5 years to regrow one of its larger claws. And yes lobsters feel pain! I don't care what chefs say or anyone in the food industry. They have sensitive hairs all over their body and an incredibly complex nervous system. There is so much misleading information made publicly available by people who really don't have a clue. For example I read on a Maine Lobster Company website that insects and lobsters don't have brains so they don't feel pain. (dumb dumb dumb dumb)    Earlier we got into the history of lobsters as a food source, but did you know that lobsters actually get grades? There are three grades given to a lobster upon its catch and those are either new shell, hard shell or old shell and the price for each one increases with hardness. The reason is that harder lobsters can be shipped further away, but the meat is coarser. New shell lobsters are incredibly fragile and cannot be transported far. The meat is tender and more sweet when compared with harder shelled lobsters. Here's a fun fact, lobster shells can be used to make golf balls! They look the same, but only have 70% of the power.    Okay it's time for conclusions on whether lobsters are actually roaches of the sea (drum roll) It's a no! They share similarities for sure, but they are not close enough on the family tree or even through appearance to be considered. There are definitely sea roaches though but that's for another episode…    That wraps up today's topic!
