Common Loon
In this episode of the I Can't Sleep Podcast, fall asleep while learning about the common loon. What a fascinating bird! I learned more than I expected about this one. I assumed they were a lot like ducks, but they’re unique enough that I can’t stop thinking about them. For example, their bones are solid, making them heavier than other birds, which allows them to dive deep underwater to get their food. Let me know if you make it that far in the episode—I’ll be surprised. Happy sleeping!

The Grinch
In this episode of the I Can't Sleep Podcast, fall asleep while learning about the Grinch. This classic Dr. Seuss character is a must-read or must-see for the holiday season. I think I'm fairly biased toward the Benedict Cumberbatch version that came out a few years ago. I'm not sure why—maybe it's the reindeer? Anyway, there's also some bonus material about the life of Dr. Seuss and his impact on children's books. Happy sleeping!

Mangroves
In this episode of the I Can't Sleep Podcast, fall asleep while learning about mangroves. Trees, trees, trees. The world has them, and they are, well, boring. I love the shade they provide in my backyard during the hot summer, but man, they're a pain to take care of after the leaves fall! But I still love them. Oh, and they are pretty boring—especially the mangroves. Sure, they are more interesting than maples (I assume) because they can live in brackish water, but don't get too braggadocious, mangroves. Happy sleeping!
