We know you are excited about this! We are, too!
Blair worked her butt off to get these calendars to the presses in time for the holidays, and you know what? Her work paid off.
We have a grand total of 100 beautiful calendars available for you! Not many, so get them while they are hot!
These calendars are full-color prints of pieces of art hand-drawn by Blair. Each month you will find a new animal surrounded by a different color scheme. Which is impressive considering that Blair is color-blind.
Also, never miss a TWIS! We put it on the calendar for you, along with what we consider important science-y holidays to keep you entertained and informed throughout the year.
Need a link? Of course you do. Click the image below to order now!
Get your calendar today!
Please, allow 1-2 weeks for shipping.

Next week, TWIS will reach a milestone in its podcasting history… 500 episodes (or so we estimate).
We would love you to join us on the show for a moment, with a word.
We’ve partnered with Dumbstruck to capture your reactions to the news of our 500th episode, AND to get your one word reaction.
All you have to do is watch my video on Dumbstruck and say a word. Easy as that. Oh, and you will probably have to allow Dumbstruck to use your microphone and camera. You have to do that kind of thing to record video, you know.
Click below to make it so! I can’t wait to hear what you have to say…

This past month TWIS was featured in a radio story on KQED’s ‘The California Report’ for the way we are using Patreon to build our community and drive support for our productions.
Thanks to everyone for supporting us on Patreon, to Grace Rubenstein for putting us in her story, and to Patreon for giving us a new and interactive way to fund raise.
We hope that we can continue to count on your support as we strive to produce new and ever better science programs for you.
