Oh, hey, it's the room temperature, bubbly water that you're sipping like foam.

Alleyboard, and we are back in your relationship with millipedes is about to change because

I know you and you don't think about millipedes enough.

So get ready for a new you.

One that stops on hikes to sniff warm looking things that were some of the first terrestrial

animals.

There's 12,000 species of these.

There might be five times that lurking in leaf litter around the world and you will

love them and you will love this guest.

So if you liked the vibe of the Dundrology episode with Casey Clap, get ready for a ride

with this Diplo pathologist who studied biology for undergrad, no, I got a master's in entomology

at the University of Arkansas and his PhD in millipedes at Virginia Polytechnic Institute

and State University.

You may have noticed he's lived in the South.

And he says the word color, it sounds like color.

And if you hear it and it delights you, feel free to take a tiny sip of the nearest

beverage in celebration of him.

He has been on my list for years to interview and just as we again, we got a chance to

connect and talk legs.

But before we get into it, just a quick thank you to everyone who supports this show at

patreon.com slash allergies and sent in such wonderfully astute questions.

Thank you to everyone who recommends the show to your friends and your enemies alike.
