In San Antonio, Texas, on a nice 80 degree morning listening to the cicadas.
It'll be 100 degrees later today and all I will hear is the air conditioning units.

Things may have changed by the time you hear this, but I'm sure the cicadas and the air conditioning units will still be going.
I find that noise so grating, though.
In the summer cicadas, they kind of sounded like crickets.
I like the cricket sounds.
I like the sound of air conditioning in 100 degree weather.
I'll tell you, air conditioning, crickets, and rain sound nice.
All right to fall asleep, too.
Don't fall asleep for this podcast.
Hey there.
It's the NPR Politics podcast.
I'm Susan Davis.
I cover politics.
