Ancient Art Podcast (audio)

With all the hoopla from the arrival of the 17-year magicicada to much of the Midwest and with the annual cicadas in full overture, let's take a moment to look a little more closely at the mystery, science, and theatrics of cicadas. In this episode, we'll reveal the mystery of these under-appreciated insects, explore the modern cicada hysteria, and delve into the secret arts and myths of ancient China. We'll even throw in a little astronomy for good measure. Sit back and get ready for the ride.
