Friends, Romans, arthropods, lend us your ears! For those curious about insects – their behavior, love lives, the threat or lack thereof they pose to humans – there is a new podcast: Can I Bug You?

Recorded on the UC Riverside campus at the KUCR FM radio studio, the podcast is a twice-monthly deep dive into insects’ sometimes creepy but mostly fascinating world. It is produced and hosted by university spokeswoman Jules Bernstein and Doug Yanega, one of the world’s foremost experts on insects. He is also the senior museum scientist at UCR’s Entomology Research Museum.
