263 – Computer Science with Shahruz Shaukat pt. 1

Shahruz is one of the original engineers from the Earwolf days. Responsible for a lot of the features that many podcast networks use today. He stopped by the new studio to talk all about that, his background, and tons more. A very fun way to get back into the Space Cave. And by supporting this show on Patreon, you hear it early, ad-free, and in full.

Music at the end from Sonja Midtune with Growing Up (For You)

The Moth Project

At the heart of "The Moth Project" lies two brothers. One, a passionate artist; the other, a dedicated botanist engrossed in our ecosystem. Amidst the 2020 quarantine in upstate New York, they, along with their six children, bonded over evening campfires, insightful dialogues, and the fascinating biodiversity around them. Inspired by the life cycle of the underappreciated moth, they crafted a narrative intertwining moth migrations with the immigration journey of Peter's family. In a world where millions are in constant movement, seeking new beginnings, it emphasizes the resilience of both nature and the human spirit, and highlights the interconnectedness between the two. 

Esteemed botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer, the voice behind Braiding Sweetgrass and an esteemed member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, lends her voice to the project's central piece. Her input, integrating indigenous tales and scientific knowledge, imparts a deep reverence for the natural world.
