Patreon Episode: An Old Timey Nightgown Made by your Nana

Hey Nature Nerds! We're still working on getting up to speed post typhoon, so in the meantime enjoy this Bonus Patreon episode! This month's episode starts with Jen's science news about a town in Australia being overrun by Kangaroos. Then Megan keeps the fun going with the not-so-great and occasionally creepy history of Lake Lanier, GA. Thanks to Laura L, you awesome friend and Patron, for this suggestion! Get your life vest and enjoy!
