  • Episode 81: An Update on Green Roofs!
    Back in Episode 46, I did some research on green roofs and what they are. Now, a year ( and a bit ) later, I completed my first year of grad school, studying green roofs, took a class on green roofs, and became a Green Roof Professional! Let's see what I say after judging myself all the back on Episode 46.

  • Episode 80: A Quick Little Update!

    What's up you guys!?!? It is SO nice to be back on the mic and chatting with all of you! This week, I wanted to chat a little about life. Basically, just a little update as to where I am currently and where the show is going. I'm going to do my best to be as regular as possible again. I love this show and it pained me every time when I didn't record like I normally did. Hopefully that'll change!
