After two weeks away on a wonderful little holiday, I'm back with an interview with Ecological Consultant, Natalie Sabin! In this episode, Nat and I discuss the coolest bat facts, how ecologists consult on building work, how she is the Dr Watson of her consultancy, the infamous HS2 rail and why bat poo loves a cobweb. You can find Nat on Twitter (www.twitter.com/natsabin) and her podcast Across the Ages (https://linktr.ee/AcrossTheAges). You can find this podcast on YouTube (just look for The Biologist of It).

Happy Tuesday! In this episode I'm joined by The Plant Prof himself, Vikram Baliga from Texas Tech University. Vikram is a Horticulturist working as a lecturer and greenhouse and gardens manager and he's using Mark Watney (Space Pirate) from Andy Weir's "The Martian" to explain his work and research. This episode ended up covering a huge range of topics, from hydroponics, to plant sweat, food deserts, accessible lecturing, Bristlecone Pines and a whole lot more. You can find Vikram on Twitter and TikTok as @ThePlantProf and on his podcast "Planthropology" (https://www.planthropologypod.com).
