Kat and Moose Podcast Kat and Moose Podcast Network

Every podcast has that one running joke about something left uncompleted, and for us, it's the grand hollering contest we left hanging in the air like a note from a yodeler on a mountaintop. Well, the echoes have returned, and we're finally crowning the champions of our cacophonous challenge! Expect to be entertained by a diverse mix of victory cries, including a Swedish shout that tickles our funny bones. Plus, indulge in our whimsical commune fantasies, where I'm the mayor without a town hall, and discover why soft shell crabs are comedy gold.

Now, who could resist a bit of laughter with a side of history? Benjamin Franklin might have penned the Declaration of Independence, but today, we're more interested in his declaration of flatulence freedom with "Fart Proudly." And oh, the words we've tangled—jujitsu and chlamydia have never been more hilariously confused. From the pages of Lisa See's "Lady Tan's Circle of Women," we're whisked away into a world of historical fiction, weaving together traditional Chinese culture and the time-honored art of storytelling.

Feeling nostalgic? We've all got those songs that define our teenage angst and early adulthood escapades, and in this episode, we're turning up the volume on those very tracks. Walk down memory lane with us, and laugh at the lyrical slip-ups that have us crimson with embarrassment even years later. A huge shoutout to our producer, Sarah Reed, who choreographs our audio dance week after week—this episode of the Cat and Moose Podcast is a symphony of chuckles, candid tales, and tunes that are the soundtrack of our lives.Support the Show.

And as if that's not enough, we'll connect the dots between Taylor Swift, Emily Dickinson, and perhaps most surprisingly, dinosaur footprints and a 'pickled' dinosaur brain.

Prepare to have your curiosity tickled with stories of prehistoric discoveries on English beaches and the enigmatic survival of ancient brain matter. We ponder over what it means to find such relics from a bygone era and how they stir the imagination. But it's not all ancient history – we also tackle the modern phenomena of "concierge moms" and what this says about student independence.
