ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In this episode of Bubble & Squeak, Peterson sits down with world-renowned Kenyan entomologist and evolutionary biologist Dr. Dino Martins. From field research across East Africa to immersive reflections on biodiversity, Dino shares how studying the smallest lives—insects, pollinators, and decomposers—unravels human exceptionalism, heals ecological grief, and invites us into a deeper, reciprocal kinship with the living Earth.

Featuring field soundscapes and contemplative reflections on science, connection, and what it truly means to pay attention.
