My name is Joshua Topolsky and I have a new podcast called What Future.

But I want to tell you that I'm being forced by my producer to record a promo telling you about my show.

And I'm not trying to force you to listen to it.

And maybe you're not interested in internet culture and the future of life on planet Earth.

And why John Carpenter movies are so good.

You may just want to listen to a podcast about, I don't know, sports or whatever Joe Rogan talks about.

And that's fine, you know, no judgment.

But if you like what you're hearing and I know that you do, you can listen to all of what future on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

The podcast and that's what you really missed brings you back to the choir room for a gloriously gleeky rewatch of all six masterfully musical seasons of Glee.

Join cast members Kevin MacKale and Jenna Uschkewitz for never before heard stories from the cast, crew, celebrities and you, the fans from McKinley High to New York City, from the choir room to nationals and from the Super Bowl to a world tour.

Listen to and that's what you really missed on the I Heart Radio app Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to Stuff You Missed in History class, a production of I Heart Radio.

Hello and welcome to the podcast I'm Holly Fry and I'm Tracy V Wilson.

Tracy, I know I have told this story on the show before I think it was on a behind the scenes that when I was a kid, I used to write pamphlets about science and nature and leave them around the house because I was a kid.

I thought my family needed to be educated.

Those are all sourced from our 1976 editions of the world book and psychopedia.

Listen, we can talk about what a conceded little child I was, but that's a different story.

I'll tell you that butterflies got a lot of coverage in those mis-sives. It was actually one of the few topics that got multiple pamphlets written about them. It was pretty much like butterflies, foxes and astronomy were the big repeat items, but most of the time it was just a little.

I say pamphlets, I mean like a little two pages stapled and folded together and everything written in pencil like I really thought my family was going to study this ridiculous business written by like a snooty seven year old, but in any case monarchs were a very big favorite like they are for many, many kids.

We talk about that a little bit on the behind the scenes as well. We are still though sitting sort of smack dab in the middle of the history of monarchs as we know it. And the next chapter of that history is really going to be up to humans.

So I thought we would talk today about what we know about these very beautiful and flashy insects, which are also common enough that most of us have familiarity with them if we grew up in North America.

Talk about how we came to know what we do know about them and what we're still trying to figure out as well as what parts of the story have kind of been misrepresented over the years.
