In this ex-seedingly fun episode, John and Tim go beyond the labels to find out what’s really in your birdseed. Are you providing a well balanced meal at your backyard feeder or helping spread invasive plant species and disease? Learn surprising stories behind seemingly innocuous grains- such as how King Tut and mastectomies relate to bird seed and the domestication history of crops we take for granted today. Also, throughout the episode John quizzes Tim on hilarious bird names. Can you spot the fake bird name? Or are you too much of a yellow-bellied sapsucker to even try? ..Intro music by Ricky Pistone and outro music by the Sidewalk Slammers.
