Season 3 - Episode 1 we're back!

500 to 1500 AD, that is the middle ages...a time of knights and princesses and kings and warfare. A time of leech medicine and medieval tournaments. A lot of weird stuff happened in the middle ages, so today we separate the wheat from the chaff from the scythe from the peasant and talk about the best inventions of medieval times.

Seven percent of the planet is covered by wetlands...wetlands that are unfortunately dissapering three times faster than forests, these amazing places are comparable to rain forests and coral reefs in their biodiversity and importance to the ecology of our planet. today we take a look at swamps, bogs, wetlands, swampy bogs, peaty fens, marshy meadows and everything in between.

Cats are the other house pet that people have, they are stinky, mean and solitary little beasts that poop in litter boxes...why are they a little nasty? we'll its because they come from mostly solitary carnivorous bigger kitties. These big wild cats, and we hope that they remain wild and roaming, are some of the coolest animals to study because of their beauty and diversity so today we take a deeper look at some species of big cats MOTHERSHIP: https://dudenaturepod.com ITUNES: https://apple.co/3jVyX6Z INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/dude_nature FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/dudenaturepod

Freshwater has no salt in it, or diminishing levels of it, but what it does have is giant critters...many of our cities are placed near freshwater sources like lakes and rivers and such so our culture and the culture of humanity intersects with freshwater fish more so than saltwater ones..and the diversity of freshwater fish is staggering so today we take a look at the beauty and size of our favorite river monsters MOTHERSHIP: https://dudenaturepod.com ITUNES: https://apple.co/3jVyX6Z INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/dude_nature FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/dudenaturepod

Alternative education seems like it means any form of education that does not mean sitting in a classroom for 8 hours staring at the clock. It can involve outdoor education, where students go on hikes to learn about the natural world, movement education, learning done through dance and song. Or most recently inquiry based learning which favours hands on experimental learning over tests and rote memorisation. Alternative education has been a large part of our lives from participating in wilderness programs to schools in foreign countries so it's one we have always been fascinated by. So today we take a longer look at some popular forms of alternative education (waldorf, homeschooling) and how they are working out.

The current form of chess arose in the 15th century after evolving from a similar game of Indian origin, today chess is one of the worlds most popular games played by millions of people worldwide. Chess has been studied by computer scientists for artificial intelligence research by creating The Deep Blue program to battle against grand masters, it's been adapted into movie and Netflix shows both fictional and real, and founded educational programs for impoverished students in inner city New York. Today we take a look at how chess permeates the culture at large and we celebrate this amazing game that humans have played for a long long time.
