Lulu: 我从小在波士顿长大，但从未尝试过蛤蜊浓汤，因为它看起来很恶心。然而，通过这次探索，我发现蛤蜊浓汤的制作过程和食材都充满神奇和趣味。最终，我克服了心理障碍，品尝了蛤蜊浓汤，并发现它非常美味。 Alan: 我讲述了关于牛奶、土豆和蛤蜊的三个故事，分别展现了这些食材的神奇之处。牛奶来自奶牛，奶牛可以将草转化为营养丰富的牛奶；土豆富含营养，甚至可以在紧急情况下维持生命；蛤蜊是古老的海洋生物，它们过滤水中的营养物质，并具有悠久的历史和文化意义。 Ana: 我参与了节目的制作，并协助讲述了关于土豆的故事。我强调了土豆的营养价值和历史意义，并与 Alan 一起引导 Lulu 探索蛤蜊浓汤的奥秘。 Rachel Hutchinson: 作为一位海洋科学家，我分享了关于蛤蜊的知识，包括它们的滤食习性、寿命、以及它们在当地部落文化中的重要性。我解释了蛤蜊如何过滤海水，以及它们在维持海洋生态系统中的作用。我还介绍了蛤蜊壳在历史上的用途，以及它们如何被用作货币和装饰品。 孩子们：我们提出了关于蛤蜊的各种问题，例如蛤蜊的性别转换、壳的形成、寿命、以及它们在水外的生存能力。这些问题激发了我们对蛤蜊的进一步了解，并展现了孩子们对自然的好奇心。

Shownotes Transcript

Today we’re bringing you a live episode we taped in Boston. It’s about clam chowder. We’re sharing it now because we’re doing ANOTHER LIVE SHOW at Little Island )in NYC on August 6th + 7th - and that one’s about PIZZA! The show’s free. There will be pizza. Join if you’re in NYC (or make this the reason you visit). Check out all of our other performances here).

Lulu is a Bostonian who has never had clam chowder. Read that again. For some reason it always felt gross to her. So as an extreme challenge, we’re taking a closer look at clam chowder to see if it can become wondrous. Ana and Alan break down each ingredient - milk, potatoes, and finally clams - with a concoction of stories and guests. Then, if she’s convinced of clam chowder’s magic, Lulu will try clam chowder for the first time in her life. 

You can watch a full video taping of this episode here.) Listen if you love clam chowder, but especially if you’re a chowda doubta. 

Special thanks to scientist Rachel Hutchison from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Sea Grant for all of her clam knowledge and WBUR’s CitySpace for hosting this event. Hope to see you in New York City!
