Podcasts about mosquitoes

Tony P canceled Friday's show blaming “bad WiFi” from a giant Atlantic City hotel… then finally spilled the real disaster: five-hour drive through tornadoes, a mid set, his wife kidnapping the dog (his opener), and going full Chevy Chase in Vegas Vacation at the tables until the ATM cried. Opie gives him the old-fashioned beating he earned, then the boys spiral into the dumbest (and funniest) hour:Why America is about to lose its nightcrawlers, tongue depressors, and “good dirt” in the Canada trade warThe dead-dog-in-a-box Free Bird tribute that will either crush or get Tony banned from every casinoThe serious medical debate over sunning your butthole (and whether picturing it makes you gay)Mosquitoes that somehow find the pubis through sweatpants$4.50 plain slices, clam-pie trauma, and Chinese robots that beat Usain Bolt… then just keep runningPure unfiltered chaos with Opie and Tony P.

Are you making the most of your summer? A new survey reveals that almost a quarter of us feel like we haven’t. Plus, are you on top of cancelling subscriptions before they renew, or do you just let them roll over? Also: Why mosquitoes love some people and leave others alone (spoiler: it has nothing to do with your blood type) The Lakers just got sold for a record-breaking number and Drew has thoughts.

In this weird news segment, Steve Stevens shares a fascinating story about why mosquitoes seem to ignore some people and swarm others. A study involving 119 adults and three mosquito species found that mosquito attraction is not the same across the board, and that different species respond differently to different people. The discussion points to skin bacteria and the chemicals we naturally release as key factors in how attractive we are to mosquitoes. The segment also explores how this research could lead to more targeted mosquito repellents in the future, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

This hour, Brad Hiatt, an entomologist at Audubon Insectarium, joins Scoot to explain what role mosquitos play in local ecosystems. Also, Slidell is considering ending its ban on drive-thru alcohol sales. In a state where drive-thru daiquiri shops are part of the culture, is this just Louisiana being Louisiana?

Do all the pesky bugs in our area love the heat we've gotten recently? What about mosquitoes and the recent rain? We talk with Aaron Ashbrook, assistant professor of urban/peri-urban entomology at LSU, about it.

Google-owned Debug has proposed releasing 32 million Wolbachia-infected male mosquitoes in California and Florida to suppress populations of Aedes aegypti, the invasive mosquito that spreads dengue fever, yellow fever, and Zika virus The released males don't bite humans and are designed to mate with wild females whose eggs then fail to hatch, preventing more than 100 offspring from being produced from a single mating Public concern centers on the possibility of unintended environmental consequences, the difficulty of reversing large-scale biological releases and questions about the role of private corporations in ecosystem management Researchers reviewing Wolbachia-based mosquito-control programs found that they can reduce disease transmission, but success depends heavily on local conditions and often requires ongoing releases, specialized infrastructure and long-term monitoring Regardless of whether the proposal moves forward, you can reduce your exposure to mosquito-borne diseases by eliminating standing water around your home, using physical barriers such as screens and reducing mosquito breeding sites in your community

Hosts Kevin (the mirth maker) and Willis (the self-styled whiz bang) tumble through a chaotic, hilarious episode of Tangent Station that feels like listening in on two old friends at a diner. They riff on everything from Joe Rogan and David Lee Roth impressions to deodorizing microphones and the smell of underwear. Along the way they veer into nostalgia — video stores, clubbing days, and local Cincinnati haunts — while sharing oddball stories about mosquitoes, 23andMe surprises, and a radio tease about a man who fathered hundreds of children. The tone is loose, brash, and affectionate: conversational comedy with a surprising heart when Willis talks about his wedding.

From camel rides to West Nile mosquitoes, somehow end up roasting Panera's move to Boston, and still find time to debate whether minivans are secretly awesome... congratulations, you've found today's episode.The crew kicks things off with one of the weirdest conversations you'll hear all week after camel videos completely derail the morning. From there it's straight into Missouri mosquito season, West Nile warnings, heat indexes trying to melt highways, and why everyone suddenly feels like checking every birdbath in the neighborhood.Then comes the biggest local story of the day: Panera officially announcing plans to move its headquarters from the St. Louis area to Boston. The gang reacts the only way they know how—with sarcastic conspiracy theories, fake boardroom jargon, Boston jokes, memories of St. Louis Bread Co., questionable bathroom reviews, and plenty of mourning for another hometown company heading east. Somehow the conversation also includes Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, bread bowls, hospital food, and the mysterious career path of CEO Paul Carbone.The chaos doesn't stop there.There's a wild retail theft story where social media becomes the criminals' biggest enemy, stories about detention, paddlings, school punishments that absolutely wouldn't fly today, and enough embarrassing childhood memories to keep therapists employed for years.Later, the crew unexpectedly becomes the biggest supporters of minivans you've ever heard. Sliding doors, cup holders, family road trips, captain's chairs, Toyota Siennas... suddenly everyone's wondering if they judged minivans way too harshly growing up.Of course, no episode would be complete without random tangents about neighborhood cats, weird internet nostalgia, ridiculous listener texts, and the kind of conversations that somehow only happen on The Rizzuto Show.Some people start their morning with coffee. We start ours by arguing about what the word "standby" actually means before immediately spiraling into ancient social media trauma. Seems healthy.This daily comedy show welcomes comedian Bobby Jaycox back into the studio, and from there the rails completely disappear. One minute we're talking about his stand-up shows, the next we're debating whether MySpace deserves another shot at world domination. Would you bring back your Top 8? Would Tom still be your first friend? More importantly... what embarrassing song was automatically blasting from your profile the second someone visited?Naturally, that conversation leads us into the greatest collection of forgotten internet memories imaginable. MySpace profile songs, HTML backgrounds, awkward teenage decisions, and the horrifying realization that some of those old photos may still exist somewhere in the digital universe waiting to ruin careers.As if nostalgia wasn't enough, Lauren somehow gets roped into doing a Chewbacca impression... and then convinces everyone else to try one too. The results are exactly as dignified as you'd expect from grown adults with microphones.Elsewhere in today's chaos...• Bobby shares stories about Nikki Glaser helping promote his comedy shows.• The crew debates whether listening to music should be a solo experience.• Rafe revisits one of the most questionable MySpace profile songs ever selected by a human being.• Moon explains why MySpace worked in the first place—and why bringing it back might be impossible.• Clone conspiracies somehow become a serious topic for several minutes.• Lauren runs through the latest celebrity news, music headlines, TV updates and entertainment gossip during Crap on Celebrities.• Ted Lasso returns.• American Horror Story gets its Avengers-style crossover season.• Eminem auctions off sneakers.• Demi Lovato shuts down clone theories... which naturally only fuels more clone theories around the room.• The gang ranks classic summer songs while simultaneously roasting Kenny Chesney, LFO, Brian Wilson, and basically everyone else.It's another episode where one conversation accidentally creates six more conversations, nobody stays on topic for long, and somehow that's exactly how we like it.Then Mike McKenna from Macadoodles walks into the studio carrying what might be the greatest gift Rafe has ever received: a full-size cardboard cutout of Willie Nelson. Naturally, that leads to conversations about THC drinks, sleep gummies, hemp regulations, getting way too high in Vegas, and why older adults are becoming the biggest fans of Willie Nelson's cannabis beverages.The crew also answers listener emails that somehow become full-blown debates. Is it weird to say hi to the spouses of radio personalities when you see them in public? Does gray hair actually make people more attractive? Should you ever dye it? Why do brothers care if their sister goes gray? The opinions are... surprisingly passionate.Then comes one of the biggest debates of the episode.A listener witnesses someone bringing a dog into a pizza restaurant... then placing the dog ON THE TABLE. The crew is completely split over what's acceptable, what's disgusting, where the line should be, and somehow babies, dirty diapers, dog hair, patios, and pizza all become part of the same conversation.Meanwhile Bobby prepares for his upcoming appearance at the Gathering of the Juggalos, everyone wonders what kind of chaos that comedy show will become, and Rafe volunteers to road trip despite claiming he's only doing it to pay off student loans.It's another completely unfiltered episode filled with ridiculous conversations, listener emails, celebrity randomness, weird news, and exactly the kind of nonsense you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Mosquitoes in Desoto Test Positive for West Nile VirusExtreme heat buckles road on Highway K in O'FallonPanera to move headquarters from St. Louis to BostonMillennials are trying to make minivans cool again‘Millennials assemble': Myspace could be making a comebackSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We all look forward to summer, that time of year when we can spend more time outside and less time worrying about things like colds and flu. However, the warm summer months can bring their own infectious disease threats, whether it's ticks, mosquitoes, or foodborne parasites. This week, hosts Chris Dall and Dr. Michael Osterholm discuss some of these summertime infectious disease threats, from the growing cyclospora outbreak in the US, to new research that suggests the tickborne allergy alpha-gal syndrome may be under-recognized. They'll also bring you the latest on the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo,  and answer a question about the World Cup.  Links:Workers at an Ebola treatment center in Congo strike over unpaid salaries and bonuses (The Associated Press)What we truly know about the huge US Cyclospora outbreak—and what we don't (CIDRAP)1 in 4 adults in tick-heavy states test positive for alpha-gal antibodies (CIDRAP)  Resources for vaccine and public health advocacy: Voices for Vaccines Families Fighting Flu Vaccinate Your Family Shot@Life Medical Reserve Corps Learn more about the Vaccine Integrity Project MORE EPISODES       SUPPORT THIS PODCAST   Music: "Beauty Flow" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License

What happens when a deep-seated thirst for childhood revenge turns into a career in genetic engineering? You get an absolute badass who is plotting the ultimate downfall of the world's deadliest killer. Krystal is a Ugandan entomologist (aka a massive bug nerd) who has dedicated her life to taking down the mosquito. Growing up in Uganda, surviving malaria was basically a terrifying game of Russian roulette. Crystal shares the raw, heart-wrenching origin story that fueled her career: watching her little brother suffer through brutal, fever-induced seizures all night while her family simply couldn't afford the medication to treat him. Crystal completely schools Jeremie and Brian on what malaria actually does to the human body - and it is no joke. We're talking brain damage from cerebral malaria, "black water fever" (where your urine turns black from liver damage), and even gangrene that leads to amputations. We also dig into the wild fact that out of the 3,500 species of mosquitoes on Earth, only about four are the real assholes responsible for the vast majority of malaria transmission in Africa. This episode is a massive reality check about the devastating barriers to healthcare in the developing world, the literal life-saving impact of the Global Fund, and the badass science that might just eradicate this disease for good.

With recent warm temperatures, humidity, and high rainfall, mosquitoes are thriving in St. Louis. And these insects don't just cause itchy, annoying bites; they can also carry diseases like West Nile. To evaluate the effectiveness of various anti-mosquito tactics — from natural remedies to yard fogging — we talk with environmentalist Jean Ponzi of the Missouri Botanical Garden and Missouri Extension urban entomologist Emily Althoff.

The New World screwworm is back in Texas. The lone star tick is on a tea. And the air is thick with blood-sucking mosquitoes. These are all parasites, and they are aggressively on the hunt for their next victim. We share the planet with these creatures, and we need to understand them to protect ourselves. Are they the villains of the animal kingdom or are they misunderstood?

The powerful gene editing tool CRISPR is already being tested on animal and plant cells. It has even been used on humans. How might this revolutionary tool change our lives? On the one hand, it could cure inherited diseases and rid the world of malaria-spreading mosquitoes.

You've been waiting for the right moment to start. For things to feel easier. For someone to tell you you're ready. But here's the truth: the pain of regret will always hurt more than the pain of failure. And the only way forward is through. This episode is 14 minutes of the lessons that took 39 years to learn. From getting fired and heartbroken to losing half a business overnight, these are the moments that built everything. The hard truths about cutting out losers, betting on yourself, and learning to smile when pressure shows up. Because winners don't avoid the fight. They get excited by it. In this episode, you'll learn: Why getting fired or pushed out is often the greatest gift you'll ever receive and how it forces you to finally bet on yourself Why losers don't like winners and how hanging around people who haven't built anything guarantees you won't either How getting into rooms where you're the dumbest person changes everything and why asking how you can help opens doors you didn't know existed The pressure test: how winners react when the vice grips them and why learning to smile when it shows up is the only way to build something real Why regret is a greater disappointment than failure and how the worst thing that can happen isn't losing, it's never trying Stop waiting.

Grab your bug spray and zip up your mosquito-proof jumpsuit, because this episode of Wow in the World is buzzing with science, chaos, and one very complicated game of “Mosquito Tag!” illustrating why mosquitoes bite certain people! Perfect for kids and listening with the whole family. On a hot summer evening, Mindy, Guy Raz and the crew gather outside for what should have been a simple game of tag…until a swarm of mosquitoes crashes the party and turns the whole thing into a deep dive into the weird and wonderful world of mosquitoes and why they choose to make a meal out of you!Why do mosquitoes seem obsessed with biting some people while completely ignoring others? Are all mosquitoes blood-sucking pests? And why does Thomas Fingerling somehow attract every mosquito within a five-mile radius? Along the way, Mindy and Guy Raz reveal the surprising truth about mosquito biology! And the science gets even wilder when the crew dives into a real-life experiment inspired by researchers at Georgia Tech. These scientists wanted to understand exactly how mosquitoes track down humans, so they created a special mosquito-testing room filled with clues mosquitoes love… as it turns out, mosquitoes don't just randomly fly around looking for snacks—they combine multiple clues to zero in on their targets like tiny flying detectives!Through hilarious roleplay, disastrous experiments, and Dennis's increasingly dangerous game rules, the crew discovers how mosquitoes use sensory clues to decide who gets bitten next. This episode for kids and families also explores how scientists hope this research could lead to better mosquito traps and new ways to stop the spread of dangerous mosquito-borne diseases around the world.It's an episode crawling with outrageous comedy, gross mosquito facts, pretend blood-sucking, and enough buzzing sound effects to make you itch just listening!
