“This podcast is really fun and educational and I definitely recommend it if you are looking for a podcast about insects/bugs/arachnids. I like hearing about all these creatures I never heard about become.” Nico (12)

Hi, I’m a kid named Jackson. Can you try to announce me in the show but I am asking you a question can you do a thing episode on the weirdest insect out there thank you and please try to announce me on the show.

I love learning about bugs and all the creepy crawly cuties, and this podcast does a great job introducing listeners to new and exciting bugs as well as the bugs right outside our front door. It’s excellent every time!

Insects for Fun is everything I could ask for in an entomology podcast! The concise ~10 min long episodes are the perfect length in my opinion, and packed full of wonderful info. Discovering this podcast has infinitely improved my morning commute to my job raising and researching caterpillars! 🐛 Mitchel is clearly well-versed in entomology and science communication, and you can tell that he does his research for every topic he presents. Looking forward to watching this podcast grow!

as an entomologist these are such fun to listen to & recommend to others. Easy listening & great content!

I’m only sad that i didn’t find this sooner. I found this today and am about 2 hours in. Some of the animals mentioned are my favorites (water scorpions) and some are completely new (velvet worms). I was listening with earbuds while cleaning house, but kept stopping to replay sections out loud so everyone could hear. Now I wish for really long deep dives on some. 10-15minutes is perfect AND not enough. Would love to hear your thoughts (and recommendations) for related books. I recently finished An Immense World by Ed Yong. Other popular authors Dave Goulson, Doug Tallamy and a lot other authors recently published on wild bees… would love an insect themed book club! thank you for this podcast!

This podcast has been such a great and engaging lesson for me and my kids. As an aspiring entomologist, my son has loved all of the different new facts and tidbits he has learned about insects through this podcast. My son would love to hear a podcast about the Chinese Mantis! Many thanks from The Heartland!

Nice review of each insect.

I like how short and to the point each episode is while still being informational and entertaining! I also appreciate how it dives into different cultural beliefs surrounding the insects

A fun and educational podcast on our little creepy crawly friends! Just listened to the first episode, and I learned so many cool and obscure facts about bees that I had zero idea about. It’s easy enough for an arthropod amateur like me to understand, and has enough niche facts for an insecta expert to enjoy as well. (The good vibes of the background music is a definite plus!)

Loving this podcast! Learning a ton and enjoying the humor as well. Looking forward to future episodes!

Musician and Entomologist Mitchel Logan has given us a podcast that is super fun to listen to! Insects for Dummies is fun-sized, and packed with fascinating factoids, historical lore and sprinkled with wry humor! Highly addictive, and leaves you hungry for the next episode!

These episodes are packed with interesting and educational information about insects and more! Very engaging and entertaining! Looking forward to learning more about the big world!
