  1. Mollee Brown· Host0:00

    Welcome to Life List: A Birding Podcast.

  2. George Armistead· Host0:02

    [upbeat music] Hello, hello. Welcome, welcome, everyone. This is Life List: A Birding Podcast with Molly Brown, Alvaro Jaramillo, and me, George Armistead.

  3. Alvaro Jaramillo· Host0:17

    Hello.

  4. Mollee Brown· Host0:19

    [laughs] Hey there. We, uh, we're all just talking about how we get to catch up, so it's nice to have these every now and then.

  5. George Armistead· Host0:28

    [chuckles] My goodness. Been a- it's been a minute.

  6. Alvaro Jaramillo· Host0:30

    Yeah.

  7. Mollee Brown· Host0:31

    Yeah, it has.

  8. Alvaro Jaramillo· Host0:31

    You got a crab hat on. Where'd you get the crab hat there, George?

  9. George Armistead· Host0:35

    Dude, I love my crab hat. It's, um... It's d- I think, is it Duck Company? Let's see. Yeah, no, Duck Camp. You know, they do, uh... They've got all sorts of, like, different, um, duck hats, and pintails, mallards. And I saw they came out with- I thought that's a crab ... they came out- [laughs] ... with the blue crab, which is, like- [laughs] ... you know, pretty iconic for the Eastern Shore of Maryland, where I spend a good bit of time. And I saw that, and I was like, "I gotta get one of those for my dad." And then I was like, "Wait, I want one, too." So I got one for each of us.

  10. Alvaro Jaramillo· Host1:13

    Huh.

  11. Mollee Brown· Host1:14

    Pretty cool matching hats.

  12. Alvaro Jaramillo· Host1:16

    The only place I've seen blue crab in abundance is Cuba, weirdly enough. I don't know how far south they go, but they, they're, they're widespread, those suckers.

  13. George Armistead· Host1:28

    Hmm.
