Ok, we established in Tree Talk Part 1 (check it out here) that trees aren't real. If they WERE, hypothetically of course, it would be cool to know where they came from, right?  Let's hang out talk about the evolutionary history and life cycle of trees! It's going to be great!

Y'all, I'm SO excited about today's episode. My guest and I have been Twitter and podcast friends for quite a while now and I was completely thrilled at the opportunity to finally get to talk with her. Elana Gloger is a PhD candidate in psychoimmunology, host of the incredible Dear Grad Student podcast, and one of my very favorite people. She's kind, passionate,
hilarious, brilliant, and just an all around good person. We talked about the benefits of nature, the effects aging has on our bodies and what we might be able to do about it, learning to love the outdoors, and so many other good things. I'm grateful and blessed to be able to call Elana a friend and I know you're going to love her as much as I do! Check out her links below and enjoy the episode!

What's up Plant People? Paige Boyle is back! Last time she was on the podcast (go listen here), we talked turfgrass science, being a woman in a STEM field, protecting your time, and a lot more! Today we touched on a few of those things again, but really dove into her research and how it relates to making the home lawn more resilient and diverse, as well as the psychology of lawns! We also talked a lot about advocating for yourself in graduate school (and life), fighting burnout, influencing policy, and life outside academia. Paige, as always, is articulate, insightful, and brilliant, and she's absolutely one of my very favorite people to talk to!

What's up Plant People??? Today's the first episode of my new, monthly Tree Talk series! Over the next year, we'll go through the life of a tree, from seed to industry to folklore and everything in between. We'll start off with a discussion on whether or not trees are even real. It should be fun! Be sure to check out the links below for some of the source materials I used and mentioned in today's episode!

What's up, Plant People? You wanted another episode about tea and you know it! When Abby Morrison, a crowd favorite from wayyyy back in episode 17, heard my recent episode ranking teas, she told me that tea was one of her very favorite things! I asked her if she'd be interested in doing a deep dive into tea with me and she graciously agreed. We talk tea production, differences between kinds of tea, tea ceremonies from around the world, how to brew (steep?) the perfect cup, and the very best business idea ever. Abby is the most delightful of humans and you're going to love this one!

 What's up, Plant People? I don't know about you, but since I was a kid I looked at the Encyclopedia Britannica as THE source for knowledge. Curated for more than 250 years, Britannica has aggregated, vetted, and distributed information across a wide variety of fields. Imagine my glee when I found someone out there on the Twitterverse who literally EDITS the Britannica! Melissa Petruzzello has a BS in biology, an MS in plant biology and conservation, is the host of Britannica's Botanize! podcast, and is the Associate Editor for Plant and Environmental Sciences at the Encyclopedia Britannica. We talked a lot about what that's like (of course), but also went into the skill of waiting, finding the perfect career for you, doing research in the desert, fruits that mess with your tastebuds, and SO much more! Check out this great episode with a great human, and make sure to look Melissa up all the places! Stay curious, friends!

What's up plant people??? Today's episode is the last installment of the Plants in World Traditions monthly series I've been running for the past year! I talked about spooky (and spooky-adjacent) plant traditions around the world like Jack-o-Lanterns, Dia de los Muertos flowers, haunted forests, and more! This has been such a fun series, and I hope you enjoy this final episode! Talking Trees, my series for the next year, will start next month,

This episode also contains a trailed for Love these Mother Daughter Talks, a delightful and heartwarming show that's the newest member of the PodFix Network. Be sure to check out LTMDT and all the other shows in the PodFix family!
