Planthropology — Nature
Planthropology

If you’re on this planet, plants have a HUGE impact on your life. Whether you’re a vegan, a carnivore, or somewhere in between, plants are the basis of the food you eat, the clothes your wear, and the air you breathe. We don’t intend just to teach you plant facts (though we’ll do plenty of that), but to give you some insight into the cool people who work with them. From the soil to the plate to the climate, dive into the anthropology of plants (get it?) and learn a little more about why you should care about the world around you from the people who care about it the most.

120. Godfather Figs, Coastal Ecology, and Really Old Rocks w/ Phil D'Angelis Jun 12, 2025

What happens when scientific curiosity meets ancestral connection? Phil DeAngelis, founder of Phil's Figs and coastal geologist, takes us on a journey that weaves together seemingly unrelated passions into a life of purpose and discovery.
Phil's story begins in Pennsylvania, where gardening was simply part of life in his Italian-American and German-American household. Following the expected corporate path after college, he worked in marketing for Zipcar while an undercurrent of scientific curiosity continued to pull at him. A transformative trip to Italy not only connected him with his heritage but introduced him to fresh figs for the first time—awakening memories of his great-grandfather's cherished fig tree that had been ceremoniously wrapped each winter to survive Philadelphia's cold.
The podcast explores how Phil's mounting fascination with figs coincided with his decision to leave corporate life and pursue graduate studies in geoscience. With remarkable candor, he describes the humbling experience of returning to school, the challenges of scientific writing, and the painstaking research of collecting foraminifera from deep ocean sediments to study climate change events.
We delve into the fascinating geology of East Coast barrier islands—remnants of ancient Appalachian Mountains—and how Phil's work with coastal plant species helps determine environmental boundaries within inches of elevation. The conversation shifts to the extraordinary world of figs, their ancient relationship with humanity dating back to Mesopotamia, and their unique reproductive cycle involving specialized wasps.
Whether you're a science enthusiast, plant lover, or simply someone wondering about different career paths, Phil's story reminds us that curiosity is the greatest guide. As he says, "Play the long game and just keep going on something that truly interests you. If you don't know, go out and start trying stuff."
Ready to experience the incomparable taste of a fresh fig or learn why coastal plants matter? This episode will inspire you to let your passions—however diverse—lead the way.

119. Plant Hoarding, the Garden Party, and Being an Influencer w/ Destin Noak May 22, 2025

Ever wondered how working with plants could transform your life? Destin Noak, known online as the Texas Garden Guy, discovered gardening's therapeutic power during a period of uncertainty after leaving the Air Force in 2011. What began with his father's simple suggestion to till the backyard evolved into a passionate pursuit that would eventually open doors to a fulfilling career.
"It kind of gave me that relaxation, that therapy that I didn't know I needed," Destin explains, describing how working in the garden creates a meditative "white noise" that allows everything else to fade away. This accidental discovery became the foundation for a journey that would lead him from container gardening on an apartment balcony to managing a greenhouse filled with rare plants in his suburban yard.
Destin's pragmatic approach to gardening challenges makes him relatable to gardeners of all experience levels. Living with poor clay soil that "cracks when it hasn't rained for about two weeks," he turned to raised beds and container gardening as solutions rather than fighting an uphill battle. His collection now includes 50 fig trees, numerous desert roses, and rare succulents – all thriving in a modest subdivision lot. For gardeners struggling with less-than-ideal conditions, Destin's success offers both inspiration and practical strategies.
The conversation explores the evolution of Texas Garden Guy from pandemic hobby to multimedia platform, including his co-hosting role on The Garden Party podcast and recent position with Nelson Plant Food. Throughout the episode, Destin emphasizes starting small, growing what you genuinely enjoy, and creating garden spaces that reflect your personal preferences rather than conventional standards. "Your garden can be whatever you want it to be," he insists – advice that liberates new gardeners from unnecessary pressure.
Want to meet Destin and Vikram in person? Join them at Plantapalooza 2025 at Smith's Garden Town in Wichita Falls, Texas on May 31st for a day of plant talk, community building, and garden inspiration. Check out Destin's content across social platforms as @TexasGardenGuy and catch The Garden Party podcast live every Wednesday at 7pm CT.

105. Native Plants, Academic Optimism, and Liquid Smoke w/ Dr. Robert Cox Apr 04, 2024

What's up, Plant People?? I hope you're well! My guest today is a long-time mentor and friend, Dr. Robert Cox. Dr. Cox is a restoration ecologist whose wisdom in prairie ecosystems and passion for academia are as deep-rooted as the native species he studies. This episode is full of stories from Dr. Cox's academic adventures, which began in herpetology and evolved into the long-time study of plant ecology. We discussed a little bit of everything, from some of the roles fire and smoke play in plant germination to how Dr. Cox's career has ranged from researcher, to professor, to an Associate Dean's at Texas Tech University.
We also had an encouraging conversation about the future of our students and education as a whole. Dr. Cox paints an optimistic and inspiring picture of the young minds that walk the halls of higher education today, shaped by the rapid changes of our times. Together, we reflect on the paradigm shift in teaching, moving from information dispensers to mentors in critical thinking.
Finally, we spent some time chatting about native plants and the roles they play in our world. Ecological restoration has been one of Dr. Cox's major areas of focus throughout his career, and he has some really interesting and meaningful thoughts on what it means to restore a landscape and an ecosystem in light of climate change and our needs for agricultural production. I learned a lot from this conversation and left it feeling encouraged, and I hope that you'll feel the same!

104. Hope Springs Eternal Mar 21, 2024

What's up, Plant People?? Living through all the *unprecedented times* we have been over the past few years has really gotten old. I think a lot fewer things should be getting precedented, but that's just me. We could all use a little more hope in our lives because, as Dr. Katharine Hayhoe discussed in Episode 102, it's the thing that drives us to change and positive action. Here at the beginning of Spring this year, I wanted to talk about a couple of stories I found recently which brought me a little bit of hope. Be good, be safe, and be kind, my friends, and never give up hope!

103. Plants Out of Place, Chalkboards, and Controlling Weeds w/ Dr. Peter Dotray Mar 07, 2024

What's up Plant People?! I have a great one for you today with one of my former professors and current colleagues, Dr. Peter Dotray. We had a great conversation about life as a professor and academic, what's changed over the years, how do we define a "weed," what role do they play in agriculture, and how we can go about controlling them. Dr. Dotray is a kind, empathetic educator who has a wealth of experience and knowledge about agriculture and how we can approach some of our future challenges with growing good plants so we can feed and clothe the world!

102. Climate Change, Saving Us, and Relentless Hope w/ Dr. Katharine Hayhoe Feb 22, 2024

What's up, Plant People? Have you ever felt the weight of the world's climate crisis on your shoulders, yet struggled with the notion that one person's actions might be too insignificant to make a difference? Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, an atmospheric scientist, joins us to shatter that misconception with her infectious optimism and practical strategies for individual impact. Through tales from her life's journey and her book "Saving Us," Katharine tells a story about life and hope that empowers each of us to take up our own torch in this fight against climate change.
This is an episode that was a long time in the making and one that I'm so incredibly proud of. I first approached Katharine about being on the show a couple of years ago, and everything finally lined up for it to happen. I'm a huge fan of her work, and I was so honored to not only get to interview her, but to be a guest editor for her newsletter, Talking Climate! Join us for an uplifting conversation that I hope will leave you informed, inspired, and ready to make a tangible difference in the world.
You can find Katharine all over the internet, but the best place to start for all of her amazing work is on her website, www.katharinehayhoe.com!

101. Garden Life, Cozy Gaming, and the Chelsea Flower Show w/ Kay Luthor Feb 08, 2024

What's up, Plant People? Today's episode blooms with the extraordinary tale of Kay Luther, a Chelsea Flower Show gold medalist turned game developer whose story is as rich and vibrant as the gardens she designs. In an industry where creativity and adaptation are as crucial as soil to seed, Kay shares her journey from the flower-bedecked lanes of Chelsea to the pixel-perfect landscapes of her serene game, "Garden Life." As she weaves tales of her floristry days, the artistry behind each bouquet, and the social media-driven resurgence of houseplants, we're reminded of the unique beauty in every career transition.
Venturing into the heart of the floral design world, we uncover the parallels between arranging flowers and fashion, reflecting on how both fields dance to the rhythm of societal trends. Kay's anecdotes about the meticulous crafting of award-winning floral pieces for the prestigious Chelsea Flower Show draw a vivid picture of success and the humility that walks alongside it. We also turn the soil on "Garden Life," exploring how Kay's floristry skills have blossomed into game development, nurturing a project that marries the unpredictability of nature with the tranquility of gaming.
As we wrap up our time with Kay, the conversation turns towards the emotional investment in launching a new venture and the importance of embracing diverse career paths. With a nod to the cozy gaming community and the floral industry's future, we're invited to consider how our own experiences can cross-pollinate and flourish in unexpected ways. We also get a glimpse into the excitement building up to the release of "Garden Life," where players can cultivate their digital green thumb, and find out where to connect with this budding gaming experience online. Join us in this episode for a tapestry of life lessons, career insights, and the celebration of new growth, both in our gardens and ourselves.

100. Plants to the Rescue! Jan 25, 2024

What's up, Plant People! After a much longer-than-expected hiatus, I'm finally back with Episode 100! It's been a wonderful 4(ish) years, and I thought the perfect way to celebrate the past and look forward to the future was to talk about a project that's so close to my heart and that I haven't really had a chance to discuss much on the show. My first book, Plants to the Rescue, came out in July of 2023 and is something that means so much to me. Join me as I walk through the process of writing a book like this, from the basic ideas to publishing, and read a few excerpts of text with me! I also talk a bit about what's coming down the line for Planthropology in 2024, from interviews with a climatologist to a video game producer, and so much more! It's going to be an exciting year, as the show gets going again, and I can't tell y'all how much it means to me that you hung in with me through such a long break. I love all of you Plant People out there, and can't wait to spend more time with you this year!

99. Go Outside Kids, Staring at Plants, and Hugging Mountain Lions w/ Sarah Southerland Jun 22, 2023

What's up Plant People! Today's guest is someone who I've unabashedly called, on multiple occasions, "The Funniest Person on the Internet." She was reluctant to wear the title, but I'm sticking with it! Sarah Southerland is the communication and social media specialist with the Oklahoma Dpeartment of Wildlife Conservation. Her social media presence is *wildly* popular across several platforms and consistently makes me laugh out loud. Whether talking about why we shouldn't snuggle mountain lions or discussing the finer points of live jackets, Sarah's communication style is brilliant, effective, and hilarious. We talked about life, nature, good communication, moon fish, prairies, and so much more! This episode was so much fun and I know you won't be able to stop smiling the whole time!

98. Your Brain on Plants, the Stress Buddy System, and Selective Green Thumbs w/ Morgan Johnston Jun 09, 2023

What if you could explore the complexities of the human brain while also discovering the fascinating world of plants? Join me as I sit down with behavioral neuroscientist Morgan Johnston, aka Ask a Neuroscientist, for an engaging conversation about these two seemingly unrelated worlds. You'll learn how Morgan's journey from a small farming community to the world of neuroscience research has helped her uncover unique connections between plants and humans.
We dive into the effects of various chemicals and drugs on the brain, and how both plants and humans cope with stress. Morgan shares her insights on the evolutionary development of similar molecules in plant and animal systems, as well as how studying these interactions informs our understanding of mental and physical health. You'll also hear about our experiences in using animal models to study human behavior, and the critical role stress and anxiety play in our lives.
As we wrap up our discussion, we emphasize the importance of science communication and the need for reaching diverse audiences in today's world of misinformation. We share anecdotes from our own research, and explore the challenges of navigating academia and pursuing a career in science. Don't miss this enlightening episode with Morgan Johnson, where neuroscience and plant science collide to create a world of wonder and discovery.

92. Parasitic Plants, Arabidopsis Slander, and the Roller Derby Cactus w/ Elizabeth Kelly Mar 16, 2023

What’s up Plant People?! I hope you’re ready for our first guest interview in quite some time, because its a GOOD ONE. Today’s guest, Elizabeth Kelly is a PhD student at Penn State University studying parasitic plants, a brilliant science communicator, an assistant greenhouse manager, an avid roller derby player, and one of my very favorite plant people. Elizabeth (known by her derby name, Swifty, to her friends) and I have been mutuals on TikTok for a couple of years and I’ve wanted to have her on the podcast pretty much ever since. The stars finally aligned and it was well worth the wait. Elizabeth is funny, intelligent, and one of my very favorite science communicators. We talked about research, parasitic plants, botany, non-academic jobs, life on social media, and so much more! I could have talked to Swifty for hours, and I know you’re going to love this episode as much as I did! Make sure to hit up the links below and follow her on TikTok and Instagram!

82. Water Quality, Crying About Math, and the Tea on Plant Groups w/ Emily Stamm Jun 04, 2022

Hey there, Plant People! It's been a while! Thanks for your patience as I've been traveling and dealing with some family stuff. I'm excited to get back with you today with a super fun episode! Emily Stamm is one of our Master's students in the Simpson Urban Horticulture Lab in the Department of Plant and Soil Science at Texas Tech University. She already holds 2 degrees in Math and has taught professionally, but decided she wanted to learn more about her passion for plants and human health. Emily is also an avid plant collector and belongs to a lot of online plant groups which can be....messy...at times. We talked about everything from how much math makes people cry, to equity in the plant trade. It's a fun episode that I really think you're going to love!

Let's Talk Plants: A Student Podcast- Ivan Rodriguez Apr 30, 2022

The final project for the introductory horticulture class I teach is to create a science communication piece about something we discussed in the class. They can choose to make a short podcast episode, a YouTube video, a TikTok, or write a paper. One of my students asked if he could be a guest on Planthropology as his project. I thought about it a while and decided it would be a fun idea! Ivan Rodriguez is a Freshman Landscape Architecture major at Texas Tech. In this short episode, he discusses what he learned in the class and how he hopes to use his newfound knowledge of native plants and landscape techniques in his future career.

67. Deep Dive- Lawn Psychology and Advocating for Yourself w/ Paige Boyle Dec 07, 2021

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!

65. Deep Dive- Tea and Crumbly Bits w/ Abby Morrison Nov 16, 2021

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!

64. Star Power, Miracle Fruits, and Editing the Encyclopedia w/ Melissa Petruzzello Nov 09, 2021

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!

Origin Stories, Collaborations, and Growing Over Time w/ Dr. David Mendes Aug 27, 2021

What's up Plant People? Planthropology recently passed 50,000 downloads, which it totally mind boggling! It turns out that a good friend and fellow podcaster, Dr. David Mendes, also passed this big milestone the same week with his show The Papa PhD Podcast. To celebrate, we got together to do a live stream where we talked about our shows, celebrated the past couple of years of podcasting, and generally just hung out and chatted for a while. It was a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to getting to talk with David again soon. Here's the audio recording of that live stream! Find David and Papa PhD at the links below!

We talked about invasive species, living in Florida, biological control, good science communication, being kind, and so much more!

Deep Roots: Remembering a Good Man- Replay Jul 28, 2021

Hey Plant People! Today's episode is a little different as it's the 1 year anniversary of my Grandfather passing away. If you've listened for a while you've definitely heard me talk about him before. In lieu of what I had planned, I decided to repost the short episode I did about him last year. I hope it means something to you, because it means a lot to me.

52. International Agriculture, Immigration, and Diverse Stories w/ Danni Reches Jul 06, 2021

What's up plant people? Have you ever wondered how human migration, policy , "national gatekeeping," and old newspaper clippings influenced agriculture and food supplies? Have you thought about the ways in which people all over the world very immigration? Are you curious about what life in graduate school is like? Do you like flowers and avocados? My friends, this is the episode for you! I chatted with Dannis Reches, PhD Student, research fellow, and host of the wonderful What Are You Going to Do With That podcast. Danni is a brilliant researcher and communicator and, regardless of what she says, a cool plant person, even if it's in a roundabout way. This is a such a fascinating conversation, and I can't wait for you to hear it! Also, this was the second part of a collaboration I did with Danni's podcast. After you listen to this, make sure you go back and listen to my episode of What Are You Going to Do With That!

50. Plant Tips- Surviving the Summer Jun 15, 2021

Hey Plant People! I've decided to take a little break from releasing interviews while I get a few of them recorded, and wanted to give you some new content! I'm going to start making occasional Plant Tips episodes about whatever happens to be going on at the time. It's definitely summer here where I live in Texas, so I thought I'd do an episode throwing out some tips about keeping your plants happy and healthy (and just alive) through the summer heat. Let me know what you think!

Operation Switcheroo 2021: Better Than Human Podcast- Tardigrades! Apr 01, 2021

It's time for Operation Switcheroo, 2021! Participating podcasts swap episodes for a day so that YOU can be exposed to some great new content! This year, I swapped with the Better Than Human podcast and you get to hear an EXCELLENT episode about everyone's favorite swimming survivor, the tardigrade! The show notes from their original episode are copied below in case you'd like any additional information!
*****************************************************************************************
From Better Than Human:
This week’s topic is the world’s ultimate survivor, Tardigrades, also called water bears or moss piglets (isn’t moss piglet the cutest name ever). Tardigrades are a phylum of over 1,000 water-dwelling, micro-animals that have been found everywhere on Earth, including Antarctica and the deepest parts of the world’s oceans. They can survive extreme heat and cold, extreme pressure or lack of pressure (think outer space), almost complete dehydration, and radiation levels that would kill most animals. Tardigrades have survived all of Earth’s five mass extinctions. Each time they survived an extinction, the Tardigrades have become stronger and more likely to survive another mass extinction, and will definitely outlast humanity. So put on your headphone, or not, and learn about the Moss Piglets that almost never die from anything other than age.

44. Deep Dive- Old Growth Forests w/ Joe Vaughn Mar 23, 2021

Old growth forests. The phrase probably stirs up a lot of images an emotions in your mind, but do you really know what makes a tree an old growth tree or a forest an old growth forest? One of our fan favorites, Joe Vaughn, was kind enough to come back on the show for a 3rd time to do a deep dive into the ins and outs of old growth and what it means for ecological systems and the timber industry. It's a really fun and informative episode and I think you're really going to love it!

40. Growing Hope, the Recipe for Success, and French Breakfast TikTok w/ Tyler Froberg Feb 16, 2021

What's up plant people? I'm not sure I've ever talked to another guest who's done so many different and incredible things before they turned 30. Tyler Froberg is the head farmer at Hope Farms in Houston, TX. He runs the farm, but also works with programs for kids, veterans, and everyone in between. He's really done a little bit of everything and is such an inspiring guy. I'm so glad I finally got to connect with him after nearly a year. You can find him pretty much everywhere on social media. Check out Tyler and Hope farms and enjoy the episode!

39. Wilderness Survival, Varmints, and Gas Station Sushi w/ Paul Csomo Feb 02, 2021

What's up, Plant People?? Listen, there are a lot of good things for you and one of those things is for you to not die lost in the woods. To help make sure that wish comes true, my friend Paul Csomo from the Varmints Podcast came on the show for today's episode to tell you some things he's learned from his hobby of studying wilderness survival. We also talk a lot about starting a podcast, listening to podcasts, and about gas station sushi. Paul is a wonderful human, and I think you're really going to enjoy this. Don't eat the sushi, don't eat the mushroom, and don't die in the woods.

Hey Plant People! Welcome back for the first new episode of 2021! I'm trying out some new formatting stuff, but I'm stoked about today's episode! I talked with Rachel Boyd, who's a Jazz musician, radio producer for KTTZ (the Texas Tech University station and local public media affiliate), and the host of the brand new In The Grow podcast. We talk about music, life, and the radical act that is growing your own food. It's hopeful and fun and I know you're going to love it. Go check out the trailer for In The Grow with Rachel Boyd anywhere podcasts are found and get excited about episode 1 dropping this Thursday, 1/21/2021!

Science, Academia, and Podcasting- a Worldwide Year in Review Dec 31, 2020

Hey there, Plant People! This is a very special bonus episode because it includes a whole bunch of my good podcast friends! I'm in a little (ok, not THAT little) group of podcasters who talk about science and academia on their shows, and we all thought it would be fun to do a live-streamed wrap up of 2020. This is the audio recording of that live stream which took place a couple of days ago. It's fun and encouraging we spend VERY little time talking about COVID and a lot of time talking about the good things we've learned and experienced in our podcast journeys. Be sure to follow all the shows listed below on Twitter and check out their podcasts! I love all you Cool Plant People and wish you ALL the best in 2021!!!

Endings and Beginnings Dec 08, 2020

This isn't the episode that was supposed to come out today, but it was the one I felt like I needed to do. I graduate on Friday, and recorded this (longer than intended) piece about my experience through my PhD and where I go from here. I hope you get something out of it! It was certainly therapeutic for me to record.
This episode also contains a promo for follow PodFix Network show, The Fish Nerds! Find out more and listen at FishNerdsPodcast.com!
Oh, also, I started a new podcast! I wanted to be a part of #NaPodPoMo for November, where podcasters are posting content every day, but it didn't fit well with Planthropology. Because of that, The Plant Prof was born! Tune in weekly for plant facts, garden tips and tricks, answers to your questions, and whatever else pops into my head! Episodes will be bite sized and never more than 10-15 minutes long. You can find the show anywhere podcasts live and at the Linktree below!

O, Christmas Tree Nov 27, 2020

I hope everyone (in the US) had a lovely Thanksgiving and the rest of you wonderful people had a great Thursday! In my family, we've always put up our Christmas decorations the day or weekend after Thanksgiving. I thought it would be fun to do a short episode about Christmas trees so you'd have something to listen to in case you're like us! I discuss origins of the tradition as well as pros and cons of different types of Christmas trees you could buy for your home! I'm also planning to do an episode next week about how plants are used in holiday traditions all over the world. I hope you're safe and well and that you enjoy this short little bonus episode!

33. Archaeobotany, Part 2 w/ Dr. Alan Farahani, Lydia Wolfe, and Carlos Romo-Caballero Oct 30, 2020

It's part 2 of Archaeobotany! If you haven't already, go listen to part 1!
Y'all, I've been waiting for this one a long time! I've wanted to have an archaeobotanist on with me since the show started, and was lucky enough to find 3! Dr. Alan Farahani and his undergraduate researchers, Lydia Wolfe and Carlos Romo-Caballero make up the Farahani Lab of Archaeobotany at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and study the archaeological remains of ancient agriculture and what those remains mean anthropologically. They were the PERFECT guests to wrap up year 1 of Planthropology and I hope you love this episode as much as I did!

It's our second episode with Joe Vaughn! We talked about his day today responsibilities as a procurement forester, how climate change is affecting the forestry and timber industries, and about what it's like to be black in the green industry.

26. Grasslands, Grad School, and The Prairie Fairy w/ Dr. Kat Radicke Sep 01, 2020

Prairies and grasslands are great, and so are people who study them. I chatted with the recently doctored Dr. Kat Radicke. We met in grad school and were pretty fast friends. She's charming, funny, and super smart and I think you're really going to enjoy hearing from her. We talk about everything from the stress and challenges of graduate school, to collecting cow burps and it was a lot of fun! This episode also contains trailers for the Plants and Pipettes and Bald Scientist podcasts at the end.

24. Fixing Food Systems- Deep Dive w/ Hallie Casey Aug 11, 2020

It's time for our first Deep Dive episode! You may have noticed during this whole Covid crisis that some types of foods were pretty scarce on the shelves at your local grocery store. A lot of this is due to holes in the food supply chain. Hallie Casey from the One to Grow On podcast joins me again to talk about some of the ins and outs of food supply and how moving to local and regional market strategies can help fix some of the problems. Hallie is brilliant and well spoken and you're going to learn so much on today's episode!

23. Deep Roots: Remembering a Good Man Aug 04, 2020

Today is different, my friends. My grandfather passed away the evening of Tuesday, July 28. If you've been listening for a while, you've heard me speak about him and how he was the one who started my love of plants in nature. Today's episode is the best I can do to pay tribute to him. He was good and kind and selfless. That's the best compliment I know how to give anyone.

Coffee. Coffee coffee coffee. Coffee coffee. Coooofffffeeeeee!
Ok so on this episode, I talk with Dr. Kerry Mayfield about plant breeding, his awesome coffee roasting business (have I mentioned that I love coffee), traveling the world, the ethics and philosophy of science, and so much more awesome stuff. We couldn't nearly fit everything we wanted to cover into an hour or less, so we'll just have to have Kerry back on one day to chat again. Enjoy today's wonderful episode and don't forget to default towards life!

19. Real Talk, Oranges, and Total 4-Year-Old Anarchy w/ Bradley Baliga Jun 02, 2020

I'll be honest, my heart is super heavy this week and I struggled with today's episode. Between my first plan falling through and just not feeling my backup idea, I was pretty lost until I remembered this little recording I did with my son Bradley from the end of March. It's silly, kind of pointless, and chaotic, and I hope it's a fun distraction from...well all the everything going on. Hang in there, friends. Be bold, smart, and kind in all your interactions and in your lives.

Memes. Olives. Guerrilla ecologists. What do all these things have in common? We talk about them all in this awesome episode with Rhett Barker and Curtis Sarkin from Wild Green Memes for Ecological Fiends. They were gracious enough to re-record with me after I had some technical problems and I'm so glad they did. We laugh a ton about memes and get serious about ecology. You're going to love it!

16. Women in STEM, Academic Twitter, and Mind-blowing Earthworms w/ Paige Boyle May 12, 2020

Hey Plant People! I'm SO excited about today's episode. Paige Boyle is a Presidential Doctoral Research Fellow at Utah State, an advocate for Women in STEM, a self-proclaimed "earthworm whisperer," and a wonderful human. We talked about her experiences in graduate school, how completely freaking WILD earthworms are, how to plug in as a graduate student (and important it is to be able to say now), and what's it's like to be a woman in a STEM field. It was so much chatting with her and I think you'll get a lot out of this conversation!

12. Agritourism, Grad School Bonding, and Bruiser the Pig w/ Dr. Amber Bates and Kaylee Decker Apr 14, 2020

What's up plant people? I recorded the episode with my friends Amber Bates and Kaylee Deck of Grove Hill Farms like 1000 years ago, and I can't wait for you to hear it! Their business is a super rad agrotourism operation in North Texas and was such a beautiful place to record. I got to sit in Amber's dining room in her home on the farm and catch up with these two wonderful humans. Make sure you go check out Grove Hill Farms if you're ever in the Dallas metroplex or in North Texas (or Southern Oklahoma, for that matter)! You won't regret it!!

8. College Education, Navigating Life, and People Propagation w/ Kristin Bingham Feb 18, 2020

What's up, Plant People?? I have a great one for you today. I sat down (several months ago, actually) with my dear friend Kristin Bingham to talk about plants, college education, and just life in general. Kristin is an Assistant Professor of Biology at South Plains College in Levelland, Texas. She also runs the greenhouse and gardens at SPC (sound familiar?) and is super hilarious. There are actually times I'm concerned we're the same person Kristin is also the host of the Catabolic Conversations Podcast (more info below) with her colleague, Dr. Megan Keith.You'll LOVE hearing Kristin's thoughts on the twists and turns our lives take as we figure out what we want to be, on plants and science, and on how to be successful as a student.
I mentioned all kinds of new stuff that's going on in today's episode! Here are links to info about Lubbock-Con, the new Planthropology Facebook group, and the brand new Patreon page!

7. Aquifers, Gardening, and Making Sure There's Jam w/ Katherine Drury Feb 04, 2020

What's up, Plant People? It's your host, Vikram Baliga, back again with Episode 7! Listen, do you like water? Of course you do! I know for a fact you like to drink, eat, bathe (at least I hope), and, well, just have the ability to live in general. Water is totally necessary for life and 100% irreplaceable to us as living organisms. It's a good thing there are people like Katherine Drury out there!
Katherine is the Education and Outreach Coordinator with the High Plains Underground Water Conservation District on the Southern High Plains of Texas. I sat down with Katherine to talk about everything from her love of gardening to how different types of aquifers store and supply water to so much of North America. She's fun, personable, smart, and an excellent science communicator with experience in traditional news media, horticulture, water conservation, and so many other things. Katherine and I have been friends for years and I think you're really going to learn a lot and have a bunch of fun listening to this episode!

6. Academia, the Art of Storytelling, and Digging Graves w/ Dr. Glen Ritchie Jan 21, 2020

Dr. Glen Ritchie is an associate professor of crop physiology and chair of the Department of Plant and Soil Science at Texas Tech University. Dr. Ritchie took on the role of Department Chair in September of 2019 and has already made a big impact on the students, staff, and faculty in the department.
I got the chance to sit down and have a great conversation with Dr. Ritchie about everything from his thoughts about the directions in which academia should to his goals as a researcher and Chairperson. It's a funny conversation that stays lighthearted, even while tackling some of the ins and outs of a competitive and evolving academic world. Whether you're involved with academia and education or not, you'll love Dr. Ritchie's insightful and kind take on the way we should approach education and treat people.
You can find Dr. Ritchie on the Plant and Soil Science website below. You'll also be able to find him on Twitter if I can ever get him to tell me his Twitter handle. Enjoy the show and let me know what you think!

5. Science Communication, One to Grow On, and Giant Entomology Books w/ Hallie Casey Jan 07, 2020

Hallie Casey is one of the hosts and the mastermind behind the One to Grow On Podcast. On this amazing pod, they "dig into questions about agriculture and try to understand how food production impacts us and our world." Kid, adult, and scientist (which falls somewhere between) friendly, One to Grow On fights the good fight of science and agricultural communication and really just a delight to listen to.
Tune in today as I chat with Hallie about everything from 4-H and Extension, to the ways we communicate science to the public, to whether or not you need to read your entomology textbook. It's a fun conversation and I think you're really going to enjoy it and learn a lot in the process. Check out the links below to connect with Hallie, One to Grow On, and find more information about the super cool song you'll hear in this episode. You can listen to One to Grow On at the website or on your favorite podcast machine, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, PocketCast, Overcast, Acast, Stitcher, Soundcloud and others. You can also find full episodes on YouTube.

Dinosaurs, Avocados, and Flamilla Ice Cream w/ Bradley Baliga Dec 24, 2019

Hey there, plant people! It's our first bonus episode! I was recording remotely from home one day, and my little dude came into the room and wanted to talk into the microphone. I decided it would be a lot of fun to see what he had to say. He didn't disappoint! Join us as we discuss our favorite plants, dinosaurs, ice cream, numbers, jokes, and all kinds of other stuff. This was a fun episode that, at the very least, meant a TON to me. I'm happy to have this memory immortalized on the show!

4. Floral Design, the Future of Horticulture, and Untimely Deadheading w/ Russ Plowman Dec 17, 2019

What's up, Plant People? To some, horticulture may seem like a dying field. Russ Plowman doesn't agree and thinks the future actually looks bright, as horticulturists will become more and more important as populations grow and the climate changes. Listen in for a great discussion about the many and various things one could do in horticulture, like floral design, nursery growing, landscape design, food production, education, and much more. Turns out, Russ Plowman has done pretty much all of those things. He's the leader of the Texas Tech Floral Design program and Ornamental Horticulture Research Group, an instructor of horticulture, and a long time and accomplished business owner in the field. Settle in with your favorite headphones or speakers, grab a snack, and get ready to learn a little more about plants!
