Yes, bumble bees are important pollinators. But they're also fascinating, cute and colorful. This week's episode can trace its origins to a flowery Sierra Nevada meadow where host Carolyn Wilke reported on guest Michelle Duennes' project of catching bumble bees to study their health.

We also talk bee conservation, bumble bee colors, and a bit of roller derby. Related links: Duennes Lab Michelle...
