Summary

Unfortunately, due to a variety of personal factors, I need to slow down Species to a less-than-weekly schedule, at least until October. This is heartbreaking for me, but I need to take my foot off the pedal for a moment. If you are new (or new-ish) to the show, we've got over 200 episodes waiting for you; it's all evergreen content, dive in, and don't worry about listening in any particular order. If you are a longtime fan and you just want new content from me, I've got a 10-episode series on how our species evolved waiting for you here: https://frstre.com/go/?a=95595-7e38d9&s=1771291-5cf1d5&p_affiliate.referral_code=mackenmurphy

0:00.0	I don't want to waste anyone's time, so here's the TLDR.
0:04.3	I'm slowing down this podcast's output for the summer.
0:08.6	I will no longer be sticking to a strict weekly schedule at least until October.
0:14.6	So until October comes around, please enjoy the back catalog of the show and the sporadic new episode from me.
0:22.9	There are over 200 episodes already available, so if you're new to the show, you can listen to an hour of species every day until we get back to a predictable schedule, and you still won't have caught up.
0:35.7	So if this is your first time hearing my voice, please don't feel like you missed the boat.
0:40.7	Dive into the back catalog right now.
0:43.1	It's all Evergreen content, and I'll be back very soon.
0:46.5	Now, if you're a long-time listener and you just desperately want new content,
0:51.1	you can listen to my 10-part series on human evolution, linked in the show description.
0:56.3	I've heard from those of you who've listened that it's the best creative project I've ever
1:00.3	released. It's certainly the one that I put the most effort into, and it's very similar to species
1:05.3	and style, so I'm hoping that the Human Evolution audio course might tide many of you over until things get back to
1:12.9	normal. That's the short version. Now for the slightly longer version of this announcement,
1:18.9	for those of you who are interested. So for 181 Sundays straight, that's every single Sunday
1:26.6	for nearly three and a half years between January
1:29.5	of 2018 and last month, I released an episode of this show. This show takes about 20 hours
1:37.3	from first research to final editing, to do right, and I do it all myself. And through holidays and
1:43.6	funerals and vacations and final exams
1:46.2	and grad school applications, I always managed to get myself into the studio at some point before
1:50.8	midnight on Sunday and say something about animals for all of you. And then this summer, something
1:58.7	happened in my personal life, or really it was the latest thing
