MILWAUKEE (National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum ) – On Friday, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled a limited-edition Cicada Bobblehead. Due to an unusual overlap of the lifecycles of two broods of cicadas, trillions of the insects are expected to emerge in the United States by the end of June, especially in the Midwest as well as parts of the southern and eastern portions of the United States. The 13-year and 17-year cicadas only emerge in these regions of the U.S. in the same year every 221 years, with 2024 being the first such year since 1803. The first Cicada Bobblehead is being produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. Positioned on a base bearing its name across the front with a grass-like texture on top, the cicada bobblehead features its prominent red eyes set wide apart, short antennae, and membranous wings. The bobbleheads, which will be individually numbered, are only available through the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum's Online Store. Expected to ship in November, the bobbleheads cost $30 each, plus a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 per order. The periodical cicada spends most of its life underground, emerging after 13 or 17 years depending on the species to transform, reproduce, and ultimately die over the space of just a few days. Huge populations of the insects have synced up to emerge within the same window of time to give them the best chance of successfully finding a mate and producing young before they are eaten by predators or expire naturally. These populations are called broods, and for the first time since 1803, two of them the 17-year Brook XIII, concentrated in northern Illinois, and the 13-year Brood XIX found in southern Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, and throughout the Southeast – are emerging together. Soil temperature is what tells the cicadas when it's time to emerge. Once the soil reaches a temperature of about 64 degrees at a depth of 12-18 inches, the great emergence is triggered. In ideal habitat conditions, as many as 1.5 million cicadas can appear in any given acre. However, that number is lower in many areas depending on the number of trees, local chemical use, human development, and number of impervious surfaces. The mating call of male cicadas has been known to be extremely loud. To humans, it might sound obnoxious or unpleasant, but it's an important way for cicadas to find each other to reproduce in a short amount of time. The calls can reach 80-100 decibels – equal to the sound of a garbage disposal, lawn mower, or a jackhammer. Cicadas are largely harmless to humans, but their appearance is welcome in places where people routinely snack on them as a low-cost source of calories and protein. Up to two billion people regularly eat insects, especially in South and Central America, Asia, Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. Cicadas, when available, are among the most popular.

I'm sure you've seen Dr. Anthony Fauci on television in his role as the United States' top infectious disease specialist. Dr. Fauci is getting his own bobblehead courtesy of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee. It shows him in a suit as he makes a motion showing how we need to “flatten the curve” in responding to the coronavirus pandemic. This is the least we can do to thank him for his leadership during this crisis. Tragically, Dr. Fauci is also in the news today because of rising threats to his safety. To threaten the man who is leading the fight against a deadly pandemic seems not only illogical but irrationally dangerous. We would think that, in a time like this, we would all want the best help from the best resources available to us. How is this fact relevant to us spiritually?
Rachel Petty, an assistant trainer at Missouri Western University, said last spring it started out as a joke about how cute and fun it would be if they had a dog in their training rooms to hang out with student-athletes. Then she saw a picture of Myron, an Australian Shepard puppy, and fell in love with his face. She contacted a local breeder, put together a proposal for the university and just like that, Myron was officially a Griffon. Myron spends his home life with Rachel, her husband, and daughter, but when he's at school it's all business...well...some play. O.K. a lot of play. That's his job. Rachel explains that when a student-athlete is injured, sports is such a big part of their college life that dealing with the ups and downs of healing and rehab can be an emotional strain. Myron is there to help comfort the student-athletes. "If we could provide a dog who has proven to help ease mental anxiety and increase spirits, we're kind of ahead of the game mentally," said Rachel. "He provides stress relief...dogs have been known to reduce blood pressure, so he's just all around good for our athletes." Missouri Western University claims to be the only Division II school in the country that uses a therapy dog like Myron and she's talked with a handful of schools around the country about Myron. I was skeptical before I became a dog parent, but I believe dogs can truly help. That's the backstory. I also ask Rachel some other hard-hitting questions. For example, does Myron literally lick their wounds? Who cleans up if Myron has an accident? How many student-athletes fake injuries just to come to visit Myron? To hear more about Myron, you can skip to ___ of the podcast or start from the beginning and learn how you can win big during March Madness with the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Vision Grills. Also, Rachel was telling me how Myron knows exactly where to go when he gets to work.
Our friends at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum have come up with some cool concepts just in time for baseball season. Matt Carpenter's salsa and Ozzie's backflip are featured. Plus I ask Phil Sklar if the Todd the Schmuck trophy is back for the 2019 March Madness tournament!
