Take The Audio Tour

After just sixteen minutes with the Smallest Mollusk Museum, you will:

• Be better equipped to meet and greet the mollusks you find around you.

• Be able to answer important questions like: who lives longer, us or them? How do their minds work? How many of them, and how long have we shared the planet?

• How do snails make more of themselves?

• Why does the octopus change its spots?

Voiced by host of Vox Media's Today Explained and ex-RadioLab reporter Sean Rameswaram with music by Allison Leyton-Brown, the Smallest Mollusk Museum's audio tour goes well with showers, driving, diving, and strolls in the park.

Prepare for a journey into the world of the mollusk: a group of invertebrates that has produced the oldest animal alive, the hardest biological material, and a lot of slime.

They look like aliens. Their ranks are legion. Enormous monsters who preyed on our ancestors. Tentacled beasts who spawn millions in minutes. They have spread to thrive in every habitat on earth.

Humanity. Mollusks. An epic battle for survival.

Straighten your spine, vertebrate. Things are about to get weird.

What’s next?

Sometimes it feels like there’s nothing we can do to help the environment. We tell ourselves it’s big, and we’re small. We learn about the mollusks struggling to survive, and we feel powerless to help them.

But just like mollusks, humans have evolved superpowers.

Your smallest decisions have big repercussions, ones that affect your neighborhood, your country and the world.

It doesn’t take long. In just ten minutes, you can start making decisions that add up to a world with less pollution, cleaner water, fresher air, and a bigger family of animals.
