Imagine you are in

0:06

ice see waters of the Arctic.

0:09

And you've got a triangular shaped

0:11

head that you can use to crack

0:14

the ice above you and

0:18

you

0:18

can sing low notes,

0:20

high notes, you are

0:23

A bowhead whale.

0:27

And while we don't have a Terrestrials

0:29

for you today, we do wanna

0:31

tell you about and play a short

0:33

excerpt from another podcast for

0:35

kids. That's all about nature that

0:37

we thought listeners of Terrestrials might like.

0:40

So the podcast is

0:42

called Flip and Mozy's Guide

0:44

to How to Be Earthling, and it is hosted

0:47

by two fictional alien

0:49

characters named Flip and Mozy who

0:52

travel down to Earthling explore and

0:54

encounter and learn about all

0:56

the strange creatures that live right here.

0:58

And while the hosts are fictional, all

1:00

the facts and things they are learning about

1:02

the animals are true. The

1:04

idea of the show is that if you wanna

1:06

learn about what's right here alongside

1:09

you, a great way to do that is

1:11

to think about it from another perspective. and

1:13

that perspective is from the idea

1:15

of aliens encountering this place for the

1:17

first time. They've got episodes

1:19

about hermit crabs and prairie

1:21

dogs and tree snakes And the one wanted

1:23

to play for you today is about my favorite

1:26

animal that they've covered so far, the

1:28

bowhead whale. And I'm gonna

1:30

just drop us into the episode a few minutes into

1:32

it after our Earthling aliens,

1:34

Flip and Mozy have just encountered

1:37

a huge bowhead whale.

1:39

and Flip, the first voice you'll

1:41

hear, has just realized that she has a

1:44

question that she can't

1:46

quite keep to herself. We

1:49

were hoping you might be able to tell us how

1:51

exactly you've been able to make it to

1:53

such an old age.

1:55

Flip. Don't be so

1:57

rude.

1:58

That's Mozy. Oh, that's

1:59

alright, darling. I am

2:02

old. And that's the whale. I'm

2:05

two hunt fifty years old.

2:07

Two hundred and fifty, that's not so

2:09

old. I'm three point six

2:11

times older than that. I kill late Mozi's.

2:14

this planet, few creatures live past

2:16

the age of seventy, so to live to

2:18

two hundred and fifty is actually an

2:20

incredible biolog difficult

2:22

feet.

2:23

Look. Oh. So you're like

2:25

super duper old. Well,

2:28

my dear. It's like my mama used

2:30

to say. It's not so much

2:32

about how old you are as it is,

2:34

how you are old. I don't

2:37

let this pretty upside down

2:39

out food. Yeah.

2:41

I've been around the iceberg once

2:43

or twice. But

2:45

this freezing water also can

2:48

schools. Yeah. About how

2:50

you live your days below these

2:52

northern lights.

2:53

Well, I consider them

2:56

as steering us,

2:57

Kamir done. He

2:59

lives his whole life

3:00

in one turn around the sun.

3:02

It's one earthy but he don't

3:05

feel

3:05

any less complete or have less their

3:07

own as bad and shit. What is one

3:09

sweet year upon this plan? It's

3:11

done.

3:28

that

3:45

breathe, but once in the hour. It's

3:47

crazy. Cramp the ice

3:49

with my gigantic cold.

3:52

But it don't matter how long

3:54

you live. If you are on cooperative,

3:57

it's up to you to make sure your

3:59

life's not

4:00

too. Sage

4:07

is only

4:12

be relatively reliable as

4:15

you can live, so make sure you

4:17

make yours as good as gold.

4:20

Because it's not high

4:45

how

4:47

you were old. I don't

4:51

get it. What I think

4:53

miss Whale here is trying to say

4:55

is it doesn't matter how old you

4:57

are in years as long as you are still

4:59

healthy and living your best life.

5:01

Oh, that's exactly how I Flip. And

5:03

please call me Moe.

5:05

Oh, prime. problem. Get

5:09

it. If I had a school of krill

5:11

for every time I heard that.

5:13

A school of craill. What's that?

5:15

Well, it's one of the reasons why I'm

5:17

able to stay so young. Life

5:20

long learning.

5:20

Yeah. You're taking classes at

5:22

this krill school or something? Oh,

5:24

no. No. It's my diet.

5:27

Krill are the small animals that

5:29

I eat and a long much group of

5:31

them is called

5:31

a school. Yay. That must

5:33

have been those little we saw before

5:36

for them. I believe you are correct,

5:39

Yes. That was them. I

5:41

was trying to fit in a little afternoon

5:43

snack. I eat up to two tons

5:45

of food each day. how. And

5:47

I thought I liked this now. Oh,

5:49

5:49
