Sylvia, The Apex Armadillo

In this episode of Every Day Is Groundhog Day (Except for the Days When It's Not), we talk about Sylvia, the Apex Armadillo, the official Groundhog Day forecaster from Apex, North Carolina. As you might have figured out, Sylvia is not a groundhog, but is actually an armadillo. This episode features an interview with Mayor Jacques Gilbert, the mayor of Apex and the originator of Apex's Groundhog Day ceremony. Episode transcript here. Are you an artist?
