Baconsale Episode 566: Bugging Out

Imagine this: you’re sitting comfortably on your couch, snug as a bug in a rug, when you start to feel a slight tickle on your arm. You lift the blanket to find a creepy-crawly pest resting on you. How would you react? That’s the question we’re asking on this episode of Baconsale. Joel, Kent, and Zack have created a list of 24 bugs (including ants, spiders, moths, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, grasshoppers, bees, and ladybugs) and we’re going to tier them according to how much they would cause us to freak out. We’ll also share some fun facts about each insect, arachnid, crustacean, and myriapod as we do our best to pronounce their scientific names correctly and not enforce certain gender stereotypes.

Did you just get an itchy feeling on your scalp? Instead of going for your blowtorch, you’d better just press play, beetle buddy.
