Introducing: Jax and Phoebe Make a Planet! Dec 08, 2023

Show notes

Hi! We're Jax (Jacquelyn Gill) and Phoebe (Phoebe Cohen), and we’re baking an apple pie. But first, we have to make a planet — and not just any planet, but the best planet: Earth! It's a project that's been 4.56 billion years in the making, and we've got all the ingredients right here: Comets! Asteroids! Volcanoes! Oxygen! Water! Carbon! Now we just need a few billion years. Better preheat those ovens … ! Jax and Phoebe Make a Planet is a limited-run podcast airing in 2024 that will explore all the major chance events in Earth history that needed to take place to get to the moment where two humans (us!) are able to hang out and bake an apple pie together. Along the way, our listeners will learn about why Earth is such an incredibly special place — and one worth protecting. Each episode will focus on an important moment that changed the trajectory of our planet, and life itself—the formation of the moon, the evolution of the oxygen-producing bacteria that created our breathable atmosphere, how plants made it onto land, the asteroid impact that ushered in the Age of Mammals, and more. Along the way, we’ll explore the origins of all the ingredients needed to make an apple pie (Sugar! Butter! Apples!). The show will include a blend of scripted essays, conversation, and interviews with the diverse scientists helping us understand how we got here, and why it matters.
