Shortwave KitschSeason 10, Episode 4Hollywood Hunters! - “The Rewrite Stuff!”Written by Brandon L. Joyner Synopsis:Patty Odd wakes up in Hollywood to a shocking discovery: her reflection isn't her own. Together with her quick-witted partner, Jesse Ball, she launches a whirlwind hunt through Tinseltown's strangest haunts to unravel the mystery behind her new identity. From wisecracking diner waitresses to a mythical, shape-shifting Pooka with an unfinished script and a grudge, every encounter brings the duo closer to the truth—and deeper into chaos. As Patty and Jesse barter with producers, dodge security, and rewrite more than just a screenplay, the line between reality and legend blurs in the City of Dreams. Will they break the curse and restore Patty's true self, or will Hollywood's magic rewrite their destinies for good? If you woke up in someone else's skin, how far would you go to get your life back?

It is a proven fact that termites destroy more structures each year than fire does. Incredible as it may seem, tiny, silent, unnoticed insects create greater havoc than lashing, brutal, destructive flames—but it's always the fire that makes the headlines, not the termites. This is also true in a marriage. Most homes are not destroyed because of enormous, headline-making fires . . . but because of the quiet, gnawing, unnoticed, irritating insects that eat away at the troth, or trust, in a relationship year after year.

Women's World Cup Day 6, India v Pakistan. It's the biggest event of any ICC tournament, and the action off the pitch was yet again as much of a focus as that on it. It was flying termites that stole the show from the ongoing handshake farrago, with the fumigator playing a key role. On the pitch, Pakistan had their moments, but India's power and experience shone through. Daniel Norcross is joined by Andrew Fidel Fernando in Colombo.

Ready to tackle fall projects without stepping on hidden landmines? We kick off with a hands-on deck build—why we chose two-by-sixes over five-quarter boards, used a camo jig to hide fasteners, and saved big by assembling stainless cable rails from components. Then we widen the lens to what really protects your home: how aluminum rails beat rust at the coast, when PVC makes maintenance easy, and why looks-versus-longevity is the trade you should decide up front.From there, we dig into the myths that cost homeowners the most in North Carolina. Flood risk isn't just for the coast—Raleigh and the mountains have real exposure, and flood policies cap out fast. We break down replacement cost versus actual cash value, the 80% insured-to-value rule, and why an annual call with your agent can save you tens of thousands when storms hit. Termites aren't covered by standard policies, slab homes get chewed more often, and a low-cost termite bond offers the inspection, treatment, and paper trail future buyers trust.We also draw a bright line on what to DIY: swapping a light is one thing, but bigger electrical work needs permits and documentation or it can trip fines and kill a sale. HOA power under North Carolina's Planned Community Act surprises a lot of buyers—think fences, sheds, paint, and pools controlled by covenants with daily fines. And if your basement “waterproofing failed,” it probably didn't; it's your gutters and grading. Watch your house during a rain, extend downspouts, and ensure positive slope. To wrap, we hit septic pumping schedules tied to real household load and how revaluations push taxes and insurance—plus how to contest assessments and right-size coverage.Subscribe, share this with a neighbor who loves a project, and leave a review with the one myth you're double-checking this week. Your question might shape our next show.

Findings published in the journal Evolution reveal that mammals independently evolved specialized adaptations for exclusively feeding on ants and termites at least 12 times since the Cenozoic era began, roughly 66 million years ago. Why? And what does that reveal about how life has evolved on earth?

Thanks to Yonatan and Eilee for this week's suggestion! Further reading: Replanted rainforests may benefit from termite transplants A vast 4,000-year-old spatial pattern of termite mounds A family of termites has been traversing the world's oceans for millions of years Worker termites [photo from this site]: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we have a topic I've been wanting to cover for a while, suggested by both Yonatan and Eilee. It's the termite episode! We talk a lot about animals that eat termites, and in many cases termite-eating animals also eat ants. I've always assumed that termites and ants are closely related, but they're not. Termites are actually closely related to cockroaches, which are both in the order Blattodea, but it's been 150 million years since they shared a common ancestor. They share another trait too, in that no one wants either insect infesting their house. Like most cockroach species, though, most termite species don't want anything to do with humans. They live in the wild, not in your house, and they're incredibly common throughout most of the world. That's why so many animals eat termites almost exclusively. There are just so many termites to eat! There are around 3,000 species of termite and about a third of them live in Africa, with another 400 or so in South America, 400 or so in Asia, and 400 or so in Australia. The rest live in other parts of the world, but they need warm weather to survive so they're not very common in cold areas like northern Europe. A termite colony consists of a queen, soldiers, and workers, which sounds very similar to ants, but there are some major differences. Worker termites take care of the nest and babies, find and process food so the other termites can eat it, and store the processed food. They also take care of the queen. Unlike ants and bees, worker termites aren't only female and aren't always sterile. Soldiers are bigger and stronger than workers, with much bigger heads and jaws so they can fight off potential predators. In some species, the soldiers have such big jaws that they can't actually eat without help. Worker termites feed them. Finally, the queen is the largest individual in the colony, usually considerably larger than workers, but unlike queen bees and ants, she has a mate who stays with her throughout her life, called a king. Some termite queens can live to be as much as 50 years old, and she and the king spend almost their entire lives underground in a nesting chamber. The larger the colony, the more likely it is that the colony has more than one queen. The main queen is usually the one that started the colony along with her king, and when it was new they did all the work—taking care of the eggs and babies, foraging for food, and building the nest itself. As the first workers grew up, they took on more of those tasks, including expanding the nest. Workers are small and their bodies have little to no pigment, so that they appear white. Some people call them white ants, but of course they're not ants. Workers have to stay in a humid environment like the nest or their bodies dry out. Workers and soldiers don't have eyes, although they can probably sense light and dark, and instead they navigate using their antennae, which can sense humidity and vibrations, and chemoreceptors that sense pheromones released by other termites. Termites have another caste that's not as common, usually referred to as reproductives. These are future kings and queens, and they're larger and stronger than workers. They also have eyes and wings. When outside conditions are right, usually when the weather is warm and humid, the reproductive termites leave the nest and fly away. Males and females pair off and search for a new nesting site to start their own colony. Termites mainly eat dead plant material, including plant material that most other animals can't digest.

Nobody likes termites. They get into the wood in our homes and can lead to infuriating and expensive repairs. What’s to like? It turns out, there’s a lot to like about termites. Scientists study how they build their mounds for clues to solving some of the world’s most pressing problems, like mitigating the effects of drought, building colonies on Mars, and creating biofuels. Plus, their ability to adapt to the harshest conditions over millions of years says a lot about them. Almost 90% of the microbes found in their guts are unique to the termite. Those same gut microbes are what make them so productive and, on the flip side, so destructive. Lastly, some believe termites work with joy and have a soul. You be the judge.
