Successful forest regeneration projects require lots of different skill sets. This is especially true when trying to finance operations that work for local communities. Luckily people like Jonathan Kim of Terraformation are up for the challenge. Join us as we learn how skills outside of the biological sciences are helping make native forest regeneration successful.

“This movie feels like a ChatGPT movie if there's ever been one.” This week on Myopia Movies, the gang continues its tour through the worst films of the previous year with 2025's War of the Worlds—a baffling, screen-filled sci-fi mess that somehow turns an NSA analyst played by Ice Cube into humanity's last hope. The panel digs into the movie's strange obsession with surveillance tech, brand-name software, and product placement, while trying to figure out whether the film is pro–surveillance state, anti–surveillance state, or just deeply confused. Along the way, they riff on everything from alien data harvesting and Amazon drones to bad military logic, real-time apocalypse plotting, and a family drama that feels far more creepy than heartfelt. The result is less War of the Worlds and more War of the Windows Tabs. Want to pick a movie we do an episode on and record a special commentary just for you?

A War, A Bride, and Kaiju Vibes This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl review Netflix's sci-fi military action movie War Machine, break down Maggie Gyllenhaal's wild gothic swing The Bride!, and head back into the Monsterverse for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, Episodes 1 and 2. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 War Machine: 8:50 The Bride!: 30:50 Monarch: 55:22 War Machine (2026) Netflix original movie Directed by Patrick Hughes Stars Alan Ritchson, Dennis Quaid, Stephan James, Jai Courtney Premise: Army Ranger selection turns into a fight against a giant alien killing machine Did the premise rule or feel like rejected action-figure packaging copy? Is Alan Ritchson becoming the king of “large man solves impossible nonsense” cinema? Was this dumb-fun in the right way or just loud? Ratings out of 10 When ED 209 Gets on Gear and Rampages Brian: 6.15/10 Darryl: 7.2/10 The Bride! (2026) Theatrical release from Warner Bros. Directed and written by Maggie Gyllenhaal Stars Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale, Annette Bening, Peter Sarsgaard, Jake Gyllenhaal, Penélope Cruz Premise: In 1930s Chicago, Frank seeks a companion, and a murdered woman is brought back to life as the Bride Ambitious art-horror fairy tale or self-conscious prestige weirdness? How was Christian Bale's monster performance? Did the punk tone work? Did the movie deserve better than its opening weekend, or was the audience basically saying “absolutely not, you little goblin”? Rating out of 10 Mary Shelly’s Bonnie and Clyde Possession Acid Trip Brian: 6.2/10 Darryl:5.1/10 Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (AppleTV) Apple TV+ Monsterverse series Season 2 premiered February 27, 2026 Episode 1: Cause and Effect Summary Season 2 opens with Monarch thrown into chaos by Keiko's return after being presumed dead for decades. At the same time, Cate goes against orders to try to save Shaw, and that rescue effort helps unleash a dangerous new Titan. Broadly, the episode works as a reset button for the season: it reconnects the fractured cast, throws everyone back into crisis mode, and pushes the story deeper into Skull Island and the larger Titan threat. Episode 2: Resonance Summary The second episode splits its tension between two fronts. Lee and Keiko investigate a secretive village tied to a cult-like devotion to a mysterious sea creature, while Cate runs into a deadly stowaway situation on the Monarch side of the story. Reviews and synopses describe the episode as expanding the threat beyond Skull Island, with a rogue Titan moving toward busy shipping lanes, so it feels less like setup and more like the season starting to flex its monster-muscle a bit. Returning cast includes Kurt Russell, Wyatt Russell, Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Joe Tippett, Anders Holm, and Takehiro Hira Did the season come back strong? Are the human characters finally balancing better with the monster spectacle?

As a lifelong Free Willy fan, Dando was certainly a fan of this episode. However, what he didn't realise was that not only was this a parody of the film, but also seemingly a spin on the dark truth behind the tragic real-life story of Keiko, the orca from the film. Safe to say, we learned something today.We also discuss the trauma of childhood films, Lance Bass' failed attempt at space travel, THAT brutal ending and why it was perfect for this story, plus so much more.LISTEN on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fzFQbj LISTEN on Apple - apple.co/4fCJmBvWATCH on YouTube - bit.ly/southparkpodcastSupport the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content!

Understanding forest health requires looking across scales and gradients. How individual trees respond to stresses can tell us a lot about how forests will respond to stresses over the long term. These are the kinds of ideas that motivate Dr. Sara Germain in her quest to understand the life and death of trees such as the whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) and its neighbors. Join us for a fascinating look at what it takes to study trees and the forests they comprise in the Rocky Mountains.

This week on Myopia Movies, we kick off our annual dive into some of the worst movies of the previous year. And we are starting with a real doozy: the live-action 2025 remake of Snow White. This is one of those films that somehow manages to miss why the original worked in the first place. The charm, the simplicity, the fairy-tale tone—gone. In their place: baffling creative decisions, tonal confusion, and a remake that feels strangely disconnected from the magic of the classic. And honestly, you almost feel bad for Rachel Zegler, who is clearly trying and probably gives the most earnest performance in the film. Yet she ended up taking the brunt of the blame for the movie's failure—much of it tied to the controversy surrounding her public comments on Gaza, which turned the film into a culture-war lightning rod before it even hit theaters. None of that makes the movie better. But it does make it perfect material for Myopia Movies. So grab your poisoned apple and join us as we dig into one of the strangest big-budget misfires of the year. And the best part? This is only the beginning of the month. God help us.

L'Indonésie vient de prendre une décision forte : interdire les promenades touristiques à dos d'éléphant.Une mesure saluée par de nombreuses associations de protection animale, qui parlent d'un tournant historique pour le bien-être des pachydermes. Mais cette interdiction suscite aussi des inquiétudes parmi certains acteurs locaux. Pour eux, ces activités constituaient une ressource économique importante, notamment pour financer des centres de conservation d'une espèce protégée.Ce débat illustre une évolution plus large : certaines pratiques touristiques, autrefois considérées comme normales, sont aujourd'hui devenues difficilement acceptables.Prenons par exemple les spectacles de dauphins et d'orques dans les parcs aquatiques. Pendant longtemps, ces shows étaient l'une des attractions phares du tourisme familial. Mais le regard a changé.De plus en plus de pays légifèrent pour limiter ou interdire ces pratiques. Le Mexique, qui abrite environ 10 % des quelque 3 000 dauphins vivant en captivité dans le monde, impose désormais des conditions plus strictes : les animaux ne peuvent plus être maintenus dans des bassins en béton et doivent vivre dans des enclos marins.En Belgique aussi, la question avance. Le delphinarium de Bruges, dernier du pays, devra fermer au plus tard en 2037. Le ministre flamand du Bien-être animal, Ben Weyts, a même évoqué la possibilité d'une fermeture anticipée.Ces évolutions sont le fruit de décennies de mobilisation. Dès les années 1990, des campagnes dénonçaient déjà la captivité des cétacés. Un film a d'ailleurs marqué les esprits à cette époque : Sauvez Willy. L'histoire d'une amitié entre un garçon et une orque captive dans un delphinarium.Le succès du film a contribué à sensibiliser le public. Une fondation a même été créée pour sauver l'orque qui incarnait Willy à l'écran, Keiko, et lui permettre de retrouver l'océan.Autre domaine où les mentalités ont changé : les cirques. En Belgique, les animaux sauvages y sont désormais interdits. Une avancée obtenue après des années de campagne menées notamment par l'association GAIA, qui dénonce depuis longtemps l'exploitation animale dans les spectacles.Le tourisme animalier a lui aussi connu des dérives spectaculaires. Pendant des années, certains visiteurs se rendaient en Thaïlande pour se faire photographier aux côtés de tigres dans un temple devenu célèbre.Mais en 2016, le site a été fermé par les autorités. Les enquêteurs ont découvert que les tigres étaient sédatés pour rester calmes devant les touristes. L'enquête a aussi révélé l'existence d'un trafic d'espèces sauvages.Toutes ces pratiques témoignent d'une époque où la question du bien-être animal était beaucoup moins prise en compte.Mais les changements ne concernent pas seulement les animaux.Certaines formes de tourisme humainement ou culturellement problématiques ont aussi disparu. Dans les années 1950, par exemple, Las Vegas était surnommée la capitale du “tourisme atomique”. Les hôtels et casinos organisaient des “atomic parties” sur leurs toits pour permettre aux visiteurs d'observer les champignons nucléaires provoqués par les essais atomiques dans le désert du Nevada.Aujourd'hui, cette idée paraît totalement absurde.Dans un autre registre, certaines pratiques touristiques autrefois tolérées sont désormais interdites pour protéger des sites patrimoniaux ou sacrés. Il est par exemple interdit aujourd'hui d'escalader les pyramides en Égypte ou au Mexique.Même chose en Australie, où l'ascension du célèbre rocher d'Uluru est interdite depuis 2019. Ce site est sacré pour les peuples aborigènes, qui considèrent que le piétiner constitue un manque de respect.Les mentalités évoluent, et le tourisme aussi.Ce qui semblait normal hier peut devenir impensable aujourd'hui. Et à bien des égards, c'est peut-être le signe d'un monde qui apprend — lentement mais sûrement — à voyager avec davantage de respect.Vous aimez ce contenu ?

The Way to Eden (Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS), S3 E20) was recommended by Ria, who said: Listen to the Joy of Trek BrotherListen to the Joy of Trek BrotherStar Trek Episodes Not everybody likesKay & Khaki talk about the joys that they findChief Engineer Greg keeps them both in line.Yea, gay brothers, yeaHello, Keiko and Kai Winn and with just enough Scottish blood to warrant the title, Chief Engineer Greg. This is Ria from beautiful Phoenix, AZ USA where citrus trees abound and it is very easy to become an actual lemon stealing whore if one is not vigilant. If you recognized the little diddy earlier than you probably guessed the episode I'm recommending is TOS 320, the Way to Eden.I grew up on TOS and I always loved this episode without question and it was only within the last six to eight years that I was shocked to find out this is not considered to be a good episode? I wholeheartedly disagree. This is the original Star Trek musical, you have catchy songs that are great to sing along to, you've got purple-haired aliens, aliens with bizarro ears, you've got awesome hippie costumes, a shirtless Charles Napir, Chekov with an old flame. You've got Herberts, fabulous one-liners, you've got the tension between an increasingly mechanized and artificial society and our inherent human desire to remain close to nature. You've got a somewhat nerdy and uptight Captain Kirk, you've got Biblical references, Spock jamming on the Vulcan lyre and showing off his Vulcan hippie side. What is there not to love?So if you're not Herberts, man, and we reach, how bout a session on the way to Eden? It would sound!Do not give up your search for Eden.

Botanizing is a skill set that, like muscles, must be exercised regularly. Whether just starting out or a seasoned specialist, botanical ID takes repetition. That doesn't mean it has to be dry or boring! My guests today are Dr.'s Ben Goulet-Scott and Jacob Suissa of Let's Botanize. When they aren't teaching about and researching plants, they are producing lots of great videos helping to connect people to plants. Most recently, they have published a book titled "Let's Botanize: 101 Ways to Connect with Plants" with the goal of encouraging "readers to observe and appreciate the plant life around them, from their backyard to their commute." Join us for a fun look at why they wrote this book and how it can benefit newcomers and professionals alike.

The movies freed Willy, but what about Keiko? For the second part of our trilogy on the biggest aquatic star of the 90s, deep sea correspondent Brianna Bowman takes Sarah through Keiko's journey to the Oregon Coast Aquarium for rehabilitation and the developing plan to return him to the open ocean. But first, both marine scientists and rich benefactors have to try to teach a killer whale to be wild again.

Hello, and welcome to Apocalypse Video's look at the gentle giants of the sea: Whales. All month long, we'll be discussing everything from Orcas, to Humpback Whales, as well as a special once in a lifetime look at one of the rarest whale species on the planet.This…is Febwhaleary.In this first installment, we will be covering perhaps the most popular whale in the public consciousness: the Orca - otherwise known as the Killer whale. But not all Orcas behave like their infamous moniker, some are gentle giants, case in point, tonight's subject: Willy. A performer for years before his eventual debut in Hollywood, Willy is perhaps the most popular killer whale in the world. Although his true life story is not as hopeful as his motion picture alter ego…I'm your host, Dave, and joining me on this quest to stop a power-mad Michael Ironside are fellow cinephiles and Willy fans, Mike and Ryan.Topics of discussion in this episode include the depressing story of Keiko (aka: Willy), and why it's never a good idea to turn a Killer Whale into a Golden Retriever; we'll also talk about whether Michael Madsen and Michael Ironside are too menacing in this movie or not menacing enough; and finally, we'll get into Ryan's childhood obsession with whales and how he may have gone down a different path in life had he lived closer to a Seaworld.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You can also Like Us on Facebook, or shoot us an email at apocalypsevideopod@gmail.comAnd thus concludes our look at Free Willy. Febwhaleary will continue next week, as we take a look at a whale that more embodies the ominous nature of its “killer” moniker: next week we watch the 1977 creature thriller…Orca.

Journey back in time some 60 million years to the Cenozoic with Dr. Ellen Currano by looking at fossil leaves. Aside from just being cool, leaf fossils can tell us a lot about the ecology of long extinct ecosystems. For instance, leaf margins can tell you about things like temperature while leaf size can tell you about precipitation. Also, looking at fossilized insect damage can reveal important insights into how climate influences herbivory. Join us for a deep dive on the myriad scientific insights fossil leaves can provide.

Mosquito sprays and fogs only kill mosquitos, right? Wrong! The kinds of pesticides used to control mosquito populations are lethal to all manner of insects and other invertebrates. The use of these chemicals can have serious impacts on biodiversity and their marketing doesn't tell this side of the story. Join me and Dr. Aaron Anderson of the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation as we look at the science of these pesticides and what you can do in your yard and in your community to improve conditions for insect diversity.

Hey everybody, welcome back to Myopia Movies. This week we're tackling an action-silly Nicolas Cage classic: Con Air. And honestly—if you've never seen it before, I almost want to tell you to stop and watch it first… but our discussion is good enough that you'll survive either way. Fair warning: this episode got chaotic. So chaotic, in fact, that our newly married editor and panelist, Nur Chernnet, had to cut nearly 15 minutes of material. We went completely off the rails. What you're hearing is the best of what survived. We hope you enjoy the wreckage. As always, keep listening, keep subscribing—and now for some big news. If you're listening to this when it drops (mid-January 2026) and you're in the Metro Atlanta area, make sure you follow CineProv on Facebook. At the end of the month—the final Wednesday—we're launching a brand-new regular CineProv show. Even better, Keiko and Jeremy, two members of the Myopia crew, will be debuting their first show that night. Go support them. It's going to be great. One last thing: attached to this episode is a link to our Amazon Wish List. If you pick a movie from the list, not only will we cover it on the podcast (thank you for the support!), but we'll also record an exclusive, personalized riff just for you—attached to a DVD so you can watch us tear into the movie specifically in your honor. Check it out, see if anything grabs you, and as always—thanks for listening. How will Con Air hold up? Host: Nic Panel: Candace, Jeremy Directed by Simon West Starring: Nicolas Cage, John Cusack, John Malkovich, Colm Meaney, Mykelti Williamson, Nick Chinlund, Renoly Santiago, Ving Rhames, Dave Chappelle, Rachel Ticotin, Steve Eastin, Steve Buscemi, Danny Trejo, M.C.

Welcome to the first episode of Season 5!Join us as we speak with Keiko Ratcliffe, founder and CEO of Skye's the Limit! Foundation, an orginization that empowers youth and families through creativity and connection.In 2014, Keiko lost her daughter, Skye, to a drug overdose. The devastating loss turned her world upside down, but even then, Keiko knew she would somehow use Skye's story to help others. In 2019, Keiko founded the Skye's the Limit! Foundation with a mission to prevent trauma-related loss by strengthening resilience and mental wellness for youth, families, and communities. As Keiko has continued to learn about neuroscience and the effects of trauma, she's better learned how to equip young people with tools that help them cope, regulate emotion, recover from stress, and ask for help when needed—protective factors proven to reduce substance use, overdose, and suicide.Currently, Keiko is designing curriculum to take into schools. Blending art, music, somatic practices, and experiences in nature, she's curating the very activities Skye held dear.  Connect with Keiko: info@skyesthelimitfoundation.orgFor more about Skye's the Limit!: https://skyesthelimit.org/

The Devonian Period was for plants what the Cambrian Period was for animals. Land plants really started to experiment with new forms of growth some 380 million years ago which led to the establishment of the first forests on Earth. We revisit a conversation with Dr. Chris Berry who was part of the team that recently discovered the oldest fossil evidence of forests. As you are going to hear, these forests were very different from the ones we know and love today.This episode was produced in part by Matthew, April, Dana, Lilith, Sanza, Eva, Yellowroot, Wisewren, Nadia, Heidi, Blake, Josh, Laure, R.J., Carly, Lucia, Dana, Sarah, Lauren, Strych Mind, Linda, Sylvan, Austin, Sarah, Ethan, Elle, Steve, Cassie, Chuck, Aaron, Gillian, Abi, Rich, Shad, Maddie, Owen, Linda, Alana, Sigma, Max, Richard, Maia, Rens, David, Robert, Thomas, Valerie, Joan, Mohsin Kazmi Photography, Cathy, Simon, Nick, Paul, Charis, EJ, Laura, Sung, NOK, Stephen, Heidi, Kristin, Luke, Sea, Shannon, Thomas, Will, Jamie, Waverly, Brent, Tanner, Rick, Kazys, Dorothy, Katherine, Emily, Theo, Nichole, Paul, Karen, Randi, Caelan, Tom, Don, Susan, Corbin, Keena, Robin, Peter, Whitney, Kenned, Margaret, Daniel, Karen, David, Earl, Jocelyn, Gary, Krysta, Elizabeth, Southern California Carnivorous Plant Enthusiasts, Pattypollinators, Peter, Judson, Ella, Alex, Dan, Pamela, Peter, Andrea, Nathan, Karyn, Michelle, Jillian, Chellie, Linda, Laura, Miz Holly, Christie, Carlos, Paleo Fern, Levi, Sylvia, Lanny, Ben, Lily, Craig, Sarah, Lor, Monika, Brandon, Jeremy, Suzanne, Kristina, Christine, Silas, Michael, Aristia, Felicidad, Lauren, Danielle, Allie, Jeffrey, Amanda, Tommy, Marcel, C Leigh, Karma, Shelby, Christopher, Alvin, Arek, Chellie, Dani, Paul, Dani, Tara, Elly, Colleen, Natalie, Nathan, Ario, Laura, Cari, Margaret, Mary, Connor, Nathan, Jan, Jerome, Brian, Azomonas, Ellie, University Greens, Joseph, Melody, Patricia, Matthew, Garrett, John, Ashley, Cathrine, Melvin, OrangeJulian, Porter, Jules, Griff, Joan, Megan, Marabeth, Les, Ali, Southside Plants, Keiko, Robert, Bryce, Wilma, Amanda, Helen, Mikey, Michelle, German, Joerg, Cathy, Tate, Steve, Kae, Carole, Mr. Keith Santner, Lynn, Aaron, Sara, Kenned, Brett, Jocelyn, Ethan, Sheryl, Runaway Goldfish, Ryan, Chris, Alana, Rachel, Joanna, Lori, Paul, Griff, Matthew, Bobby, Vaibhav, Steven, Joseph, Brandon, Liam, Hall, Jared, Brandon, Christina, Carly, Kazys, Stephen, Katherine, Manny, doeg, Daniel, Tim, Philip, Tim, Lisa, Brodie, Bendix, Irene, holly, Sara, and Margie.

Fireflies, lightning bugs, whatever you call them, these wonderful bioluminescent beetles are wonderfully diverse, occur in a variety of habitats, and they need our help. Habitat loss is causing declines for many species but there is a lot we can do to reverse this loss! Surprise surprise, a lot of it involves native plants. Join me and Ben Pfeiffer of Firefly Conservation & Research to learn more about how we can protect, restore, and create firefly habitat.

Gardening can be a daunting enterprise, especially for a beginner. Heck, even skilled gardeners still kill plants. The quest to become a better gardener is a lifelong journey and thanks to people like my guest today, taking the leap doesn't have to be scary. Joining us is horticulturist and author Chloe Foster who has written an amazing book called "The Rookie Gardener" to help you in your gardening journey. Listen in as we explore how feeding native caterpillars with native plants started her journey and why she wants to help you discover your passion for plants as well.

Come on a journey with us. A story of true love, as we watch Star Trek: The Next Generation's "Data's Day", one of the great romances of all time.  We speak, of course, of the relationship between Admiral Mendak and Subcommander Selok.  Also Miles and Keiko get married.  This is the third episode in our wedding series, and the first marriage between two enthusiastically consenting adults But is it? Is it really? Keiko is a controversial character for a lot of reasons, many of which boil down to sexism and racism, but ALSO her introduction here does her no favours Much like Deanna and Wyatt in "Haven", Miles and Keiko's relationship is written as if they are adolescents AND IT'S WEIRD We are obsessed with all the background details: Age Gap Couple! The USS Zhukov! 17 feline supplements! Helm Ken! Patricia Tallman!  Data considers Worf a kindred spirit, and we have to ask: does Worf feel the same way? One oblique hint at a time, we WILL make Beverly Crusher a three-dimensional character! LOVE the costumes in this ep, mostly, but we cannot endorse Keiko's hair chopsticks Not many people know this, but T'Pel's shark fin hat and Winn's Sydney Opera House hat are friends

Heat stress is a major component of plant health and it in growing more and more timely each year. Understanding how plants do or do not tolerate heat can teach us a lot about not only individual species, but communities and habitats as a whole. Joining us to talk about this is Dr. Brad Posch who is trying to understand the consequences of heat stress at the leaf level. He and his colleagues are tackling these questions in the Sonoran Desert where so many plants are living on a knife edge of survival.

Deserts present a unique set of challenges to plants, especially when you are trying to restore them to the landscape. Drought, heat, soil salinity and more can make desert plant restoration seriously challenging. Luckily, Ali Schuessler and her colleagues at the Desert Botanical Garden are working hard to understand if soil microbes like fungi can help put ecosystems back together. Join us for a fascinating look at this process.

One of the biggest hurdles to native plant gardening is sourcing native plants. Whereas nurseries are starting to fill the demand, it is nevertheless difficult to keep up with demand. Sourcing seed from the wild is a major part of this process, but how do we do it ethically? Stripping native plant populations of their seeds isn't good for the habitats they comprise so this is where groups like the Mid-Atlantic Regional Seed Bank (MARSB) come in. Their mission is to conserve and wisely manage the Mid-Atlantic Region's wild seed resources, through scientific sampling, ethical collection, banking, and curation, and to encourage and actively contribute to the development of the Native Plant Material supply chain throughout the region. Join me and their Native Seed Collection Coordinator John Price as we discuss the process behind what it takes to achieve this mission and some of the major struggles they face.

Microbes are everywhere and studying them isn't always easy, but microbial ecology is a vitally important field. Microbes influence the world around them in numerous ways and trying to understand how they do that with plants is where people like Dr. Leonora Bittleston come in. Join us as we explore the leaf microbiomes of sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) and various species of pitcher plants (Sarracenia, Nepenthes, and Cephalotus) and learn just how fractal community ecology truly is!

People are drawn to plants for various reasons and that is why I wanted to talk with stand up comic and author Sam Tallent. From his early days hauling rocks out of his mom's garden to his desire to bring beauty into his neighborhood, Sam is diving head first into the world of plants. Join us as we explore his love for flowers and learn why their presence means to much to him in a world dominated by phone addiction and a lack of authenticity. Fair warning, there is plenty of strong language and substance references throughout this episode.

Fallen leaves provide habitat to countless organisms and maintain crucial ecosystem processes. At the same time, convincing people to keep leaf litter on the landscape is a serious challenge. Leaving the leaves needs effective advocacy more than ever and that is where people like National Wildlife Federation Naturalist David Mizejewski come in. With October being Leave the Leaves Month, David and I take a deep dive into not only why it is an important practice but how we can all be better advocates for creating habitat.

Galls are among the most remarkable biological structures on our planet. The organisms that produce them are also extreme diverse and contribute a bewildering amount of biomass to their habitats. Some of the most fascinating gall makers are the gall wasps. This group of organisms is still woefully understudied but people like Dr. Louis Nastasi are trying to change that. Join us as we take a deep dive on gall wasps that specialize on herbaceous plants like the rosinweeds (Silphium spp.) and learn what these amazing little insects can teach us about biodiversity and evolution.

Dr. Valerie Trouet returns to the podcast to talk about her wonderful collaborative book "In the Circle of Ancient Trees" in which she and 11 other authors talk about the ancient trees they study as dendrochronologists and how they have helped them understand everything from climate and solar flares to the cultures that celebrate them.
