Woo!
Haven't you heard, Mindy?
The Beatles are coming.
Oh, I didn't think everyone would be so excited just to see the Beatles.
Mindy, the Beatles are only one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time.
Hey, Jude, all you need is love.
Here comes the sun.
They have some of the best songs ever written.
Yeah, I love those songs too, but you said the Beatles were coming.
Huh?
Well, the Beatles are coming.
No, Beatles like the insects, Sky Roz.
Oh, so Paul and Ringo are not coming?
Nope.
Just a couple dozen hard-shelled insects with antennas.
But I can ask them if they can sing a song or two for you.
Uh, that's okay.
It wouldn't be the same, Mindy.
Ahem.
Camp Wee Wow is an awesome place.
Physics, biology, and outer space.
Science explorers with our headquarters.
No, Dennis.
Him.
Welcome to Camp Wee Wow. the invisible summer camp for science explorers everywhere.
I'm your camp counselor, Guy Raz.
And I just grew a bird out of bird seed.
Huh?
I mean, I'm Mindy.
We're just about to wrap up bug week here at Camp WeWow, but before we do, please listen carefully, as Dennis has a loud announcement for you.
A loud announcement?
What does that even mean?
Excellent question, Guy Raz.
A loud announcement means an announcement where I turn the intercom volume all the way up.
There we go.
Can everyone hear me?
Reggie, quiet!
This microphone picks up everything when it's turned up this high.
Anyhoo, campers, don't forget to... Reggie, no!
Don't unplug that!
Hey, you can all remove your earplugs, campers.
Thank you, Dennis.
All week long.
We asked you to send us stories about a time where you found a bug in an unexpected place.
And you came through.
We're going to head on over to our Camp WeWow campfire.
But first, our camp mascot, the Wow Cow, with a creepy crawly fact for you.
Hey, everybody.
It's your favorite campfire.
You know that fruit flies were the first living creatures to be sent into space.
Huh, and there's more.
Where that came from camp.
We will be right back.
Grown-ups, this message is for you, and by that i mean moo.

Hi, Mindy and Guy Raz.
I'm Emma from Athens, Georgia.
My bug story is that I once walked into my room and I found a tiny roach on my pillow.
It was nighttime and I was about to go to sleep.
And also, I also found a roach under the toilet seat when I was trying to go to the bathroom.
I flushed the toilet and it went down with it.
It was so scary.
Hi, Mindy and Guy Raz.
I'm Romy.
And I'm Ben.
We live in Vancouver, B.C.

One time...
Our mom got up in the middle of the night because she was thirsty, so she drank most of the water and when the cup was almost empty she saw a big hairy spider floating at the bottom of the cup.
I can't believe she almost drank a spider.
I can't believe it!

That's good.
I'm Indian Guy Ross.
My name is Mila, and I live in Gahanna, Ohio.

Bye.
