Further reading: What gives bees their sweet tooth? Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. Right before I left on my trip to Belize a few months ago, my aunt Janice gave me a magazine to read on the plane, the Autumn 2021 copy of LivingBird. It's about birds and birdwatching. I actually forgot to take it with me and it was in my car the whole time I was gone, but when I got home I took it in to read. One article caught my eye, titled “Investigating the Sweet Tooth of Songbirds.” Literally the same day that I read that article, I stumbled across another article on ScienceDaily titled “What gives bees their sweet tooth?” And a podcast episode idea was born! You may have heard that domestic cats can't taste sweetness, and that's true. When your pet cat wants to drink the milk in a bowl of sugary cereal, it's not the sugar they care about because they can't taste it. Also, milk isn't good for cats and even if they can't taste the sugar, it can end up giving them cavities. The question is, why don't cats taste sweetness? And what other animals can't taste it either? Carnivores like cats don't need to taste sweet flavors because it's just not present in meat, which is what carnivores eat. You can test this easily if you put two saucers on the floor for your cat, one with a small amount of unseasoned chicken and a sugar cube in the other. I guarantee you the cat will eat the chicken and play with the sugar cube, which will get sugar all over the floor so maybe don't do that after all. This is where I share with you, for no reason, that when I was in elementary school I used to eat sugar cubes while pretending I was a horse. Horses can taste sweet flavors like sugar because they're herbivores. Herbivores eat plants, and in fact herbivores have a whole lot of taste buds so that they can easily tell what kind of plants they're eating. Bitter tasting plants might be toxic while sweet ones provide lots of energy. Herbivores are also keenly attuned to the taste of salt since their diet is typically low in salt and they need to seek it out. Humans are omnivores, and omnivores eat pretty much anything. Like our great ape cousins, we also evolved to eat a lot of fruit. Ripe fruit tastes sweet so we really like our sweet foods. Omnivores like dogs, pigs, and bears also like sweet foods because they're high in calories and therefore provide a lot of energy. But how does an animal lose an entire sense of taste? It's not like all tigers woke up one day and boom, the ability to taste sweetness was gone. It happens gradually as the genes responsible for an animal's sense of taste mutate over many generations. Let's take as our example the bottlenose dolphin. The ancestors of the dolphin and other cetaceans were terrestrial animals related to the ancestors of modern even-toed ungulates like hippos, camels, deer, and pigs, and were probably either herbivores or omnivores. But as the dolphin's ancestors evolved over millions of years, they shifted to a fully marine lifestyle and a fully carnivorous diet. Over the thousands and thousands of generations, the genes that control the ability to taste sweetness mutated so much that they're now useless, but since the dolphin doesn't need to taste sweetness the mutations don't matter. In the case of the bottlenose dolphin and other cetaceans, in fact, they also can't taste bitterness or umami. Umami is what helps you taste the difference between chicken and turkey, steak and pork, tuna and trout. Basically it's the flavor of meat or savory foods, including cheeses. You can taste the difference between cheddar and Swiss because of the umami receptors in your taste buds, which are determined by genes. But the dolphin eats nothing but meat! Why would it lose the ability to taste meat? Researchers think it's because the dolphin swallows fish and other animals whole, without chewing. Cetaceans and other marine carnivores like sea lions that swallow their food whole actually have almost no taste buds at all. If you're wondering what happens when an animal that can't taste sweetness has to adapt to a diet where tasting sweet foods is important, that's exactly what happened with songbirds. The ancestors of birds lost the ability to taste sweetness millions of years ago when they were dinosaurs. Then, well, you know what happened to the non-avian dinosaurs. Suddenly the ancestors of modern birds had a lot of available ecological niches to take advantage of and they evolved rapidly to fill them. This included small birds who eat berries and nectar. Genetic studies suggest that the ancestors of songbirds regained the ability to taste sweetness around 30 million years ago in Australia. The same thing happened in hummingbirds at about the same time. In both cases, the genes that control the ability to taste umami evolved to taste sweetness instead—but songbirds and hummingbirds adapted different umami genes. That's what you call a subtle case of convergent evolution. Songbirds and hummingbirds adapted to a diet high in sugar because it's a good source of energy and easily found in flowers. In turn, flowers needed to be pollinated and have their seeds spread around, so they evolved to provide even more sugars in nectar and berries. But birds aren't the only animals that pollinate flowers and are attracted to nectar. Insects can all detect sweetness. However, bees are exceptionally attuned to sweetness and have two taste neurons instead of one per taste bud. Insects don't have taste buds the same way we do, of course. In mammals, reptiles, and birds, taste buds are located on the tongue, in a few parts of the mouth, and at the top of the throat. In insects, taste receptors can be in any number of places. They're on an insect's mouthparts but often also on their feet, legs, and antennae. Some amphibians have taste receptors on the body as well as concentrated in the mouth, and many fish have taste receptors all over their body. Catfish in particular have the most taste buds known, up to 175,000. Humans have about 10,000. Cats only have about 500. Before you start feeling sorry for your cat for not being able to taste sweet foods and not having a great sense of taste in general, cats have a taste receptor we don't. It's the water sense. To us, a nice cold glass of water tastes refreshing but doesn't really have a flavor. A cat or dog, and many other animals whose diet is mostly meat even if they aren't specifically carnivores, have the ability to taste water in a way we can't even imagine. Because meat is high in salt content, having taste buds attuned to water helps the animal drink enough water to process all that salt. If you gave me the choice, I'd choose sweetness over the ability to taste water. But my cats would probably disagree. Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

Legendary's live-action Gundam movie is starting to take shape with new casting news, including Jason Clarke joining Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo. In this quick update, we talk about why the cast combo feels a little unexpected, why a Netflix release could be a huge missed opportunity for a franchise built for theaters, and why Jim Mickle (Sweet Tooth) being tapped to write and direct is the most encouraging part of the whole situation.

Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with Dog Tag's Director of Programs and Community Impact, Maureen Devine-Ahl, and Army spouse and entrepreneur, Erin Vandre, to discuss what lessons the bakery teaches its fellows, how it aided Erin in the launch of her business (also a bakery!), and what their favorite sweets are.

Send in your music story!A new studio, a baby in a duck costume, and a camera with a mind of its own—our fourth annual Halloween special brings joyful chaos and a whole lot of heart. We kick off in full costume as our musician alter-egos and end up trading real fandom takes that might ruffle a few feathers. Jelly Roll goes from bit to genuine respect, and our Eminem debate moves from the Slim Shady era to the lyric craftsmanship of Stan and Mockingbird. We also revisit Avril Lavigne's early catalog with equal parts nostalgia and sharp observation, and push past the usual “Teen Spirit” talk to share darker Nirvana deep cuts.Then we detour into the pop-culture worlds we love. Fallout's series gets high marks for humor and world-building, Halo earns steady respect for tone and action, and Twisted Metal's lore turns into a surprise highlight as we break down Roadkill, Calypso wishes, and why Sweet Tooth still owns the screen. These conversations are lively but welcoming—whether you're a longtime gamer or just sampling the shows, you'll find an easy way in. Along the way, we juggle the reality of a big move: bank holds, pest control, a still-in-progress set, and the dream of a neon logo to crown the new space.Halloween plans round us out with family costumes, Florida heat, and the eternal question of whether we should dress up more often just because it makes everything more fun. We close with favorite monsters—from werewolves and vampires to ghosts and pumpkin legends—and a light roast of certain fantasy detours that jumped the shark. If you're into Halloween vibes, music debates, video game TV, and found-family banter, this one's a treat.Enjoying the show?

Hey-hey, listener! Want a balloon? On this episode of Baconsale, we're conversing about clowns, which are, apparently, no laughing matter. And no joke, Joel, Kent, and Zack (otherwise known as MeeMee, Sprinkles, and George) recorded this episode in full clown makeup. We'll begin by foolishly attempting to juggle the vast history of buffoonery. Then we'll seek to pinpoint when coulrophobia started creeping in to the public consciousness before sharing some true stories of terrifying clownery. Finally, we'll judge a parade of clown-related flicks, some of which aren't even horror films and others which are barely movies. We hope you enjoy it as we exercise jester's privilege, satisfy our Sweet Tooth, and try to pronounce Pagliacci. We had fun today, kids. But now, It's time for the Grand March! Press play.
Tyler The Creator made his bed with the fan base he cultivated, but Mal thinks he may have been misunderstood. Rory and Mal investigate the real reason Brandy left the stage in Chicago. Baby D thinks the guys are cappin’ when they give props to Clarissa Shields for her freestyle. Rory and Mal are impressed with the robbers who pulled off the most recent heist in the Louvre. Plus, Mal can’t stop listening to the new Tame Impala project, and a caller wants to know if we got a problem with album variance.

Frank is joined by Phil to break down Peacock's Twisted Metal, from its surprisingly heartfelt character work to the tournament arc and deep cuts that longtime players will recognize. We talk John Doe's search for identity, the show's “happy sociopath” version of Sweet Tooth, how Season 2 levels up the stunts and car combat, and why adding new lore can actually respect the games. If you skipped this one because “cars with guns,” we make the case for why it's worth your time. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Introductions and why Twisted Metal was the pick for this episode. 00:36 What the show adapts from the games and where it departs, especially with John Doe. 02:11 The core premise: post apocalyptic courier job, a shot at life behind the walls, and the road to San Francisco. 03:29 Game lore 101: Calypso, wishes with a twist, and character specific endings. 07:00 Sweet Tooth as chaos engine, why the Joker style wildcard works on TV. 09:05 Samoa Joe in the suit, Will Arnett on the mic, and why the voice swap lands. 10:58 Axel and other fan favorites enter, with connected backstories that actually pay off. 13:42 Game venues reimagined with in world logic, HUDs and objectives that make sense. 18:48 Car combat talk: practical vs CG, why Season 2's action feels better. 21:07 “Silly” weapons that get smart uses and Chekhov's missile moments. 23:03 Budget glow up from Season 1 to Season 2 and early success on Peacock. 24:04 John and Quiet's chemistry, then the Season 2 relationship reset. 28:05 The sister storyline, tough choices, and consequences after the wish. 30:40 Minion reworked, identity twists, and a setup that begs for Season 3. 33:40 Adaptation philosophy: build new stories that feel like the game. 41:31 What other game adaptations can learn from Twisted Metal. 45:06 Fun facts: ratings, production notes, and stunt work. Key Takeaways Twisted Metal balances weekly mayhem with character arcs, making the world feel lived in instead of gimmicky. Sweet Tooth is written as a charmingly off kilter sociopath, and the Samoa Joe and Will Arnett combo sells the menace and the laughs. Season 2 embraces the tournament and deepens game lore while explaining gamey elements inside the story. Practical stunts plus targeted CG keep the car combat crunchy and readable. Smart departures from canon create stronger relationships without losing the game's tone. Quotes “It's a show about a character trying to find his worth in a post apocalyptic world.” “Sweet Tooth is a happy sociopath. It's off putting and I love him for it.” “They nailed the cross between practical and CG. The car combat was better than I expected.” “Give me new stories that live in the game's world, not a beat for beat retelling.” Call to Action If you enjoyed this breakdown, follow and rate the show.
