Podcasts about Mutualism

Sweet in Tooth and Claw (start time: 0:59)  Since the 1800s, science has been obsessed with the notion, stemming from Charles Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection, that only the “fittest” can survive and pass on their strong genes. As in, it's a ruthless, violent world. And today, we humans find ourselves mired in a … Continue reading "Mutualism in Nature"

In this episode of Psych for Life I chat with cognitive neuroscientist, Dr. Sarah Tashjian. Sarah is a Lecturer within the Melbourne School of Psychological Sciences with her research focusing on using brain imaging and computational techniques to understand how humans make optimal decisions. She has a particular interest in the way individuals perceive threat, safety, and reward, and how these processes contribute to risk for mental health problems during adolescence and early adulthood. Listen in to our chat on how to protect ourselves and our goals during times of uncertainty and stress. We cover:- why all humans are motivated to survive, wanting to gain rewards to thrive and avoid threats to stay safe- how this innate drive is being impacted in our current VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambigous) times- The protective power of personal goals- Tips to help us manage threats to our sense of safety and the importance of socialityPlus so much more!To connect with Dr Sarah Tashjian find her website and social media options below:www.sarahmtashjian.comTwitter: @TashjianSMSee Dr Sarah's recent interview on Life Matters for ABC Australia where she talks about healtyh risk taking behaviours in adolescence https://abc.net.au/listen/programs/lifematters/?utm_content=twitter&utm_medium=content_Other references and resources from this episode:Chapter 9 A Mutualism, Affiliation and Status Seeking (MASS) Framework of Fundamental Affective Dynamics and Their Survival Benefits Dean Mobbs , Sarah M.

For a very long time it was assumed that competition and predation drove evolution and ecologies. And it's true that antagonism plays a role. But so does mutualism — species benefiting one another without cost or consequence. And biologist Jenn Rudgers says that we should keep that in mind as we face a world that is being stressed by climate change.

 In this episode Matt, Heath, and Brian return to the show to continue our conversation, this time to discuss the ways in which America's Wildlife Values intersect with the way that North American falconers practice their sport. In Part  2, we discussed the UNESCO designation of falconry as a living human heritage. We were all under the impression that the U.S. was not a UNESCO member, but in fact, the US became the 194th member in July of 2023 – thanks to John Goodell, curator of the  Archives of Falconry for alerting us to this change.We then remind listeners of the four wildlife value orientations (those being Traditionalist, Mutualist, Pluralist, and Distance), and we outline how each of the people who responded to the survey were then identified as belonging to one group or another. Heath identifies where he thinks NAFA fits within the rubric, and Matt tells us how his values have shifted over his career.Brian gives us a broad sense of whether values of agency personnel reflect this  underlying distribution found among Americans, and weighs in on whether the makeup of agency personnel should reflect this distribution.We then turn our attention to the "Distanced" group, and discuss ways in which the falconers can contribute to reducing the proportion of people who exhibit very low levels of interest in wildlife. Our discussion then turns to asking whether agencies should simply ignore ideas associated with Mutualism in favor of focusing on ideas that would better suit Traditionalists and Pluralists.We conclude the episode examining the growing impact of conflict and mistrust that are associated with societal values that have shifted towards ideas and goals more typically associated with Mutualists.

How can we help locally, but in a way that works economically? This is the challenge that thwarts many solidaristic startups. Luckily, Sara Horowitz has picked up the gauntlet. Sara Horowitz has been both the chair of the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the founder of the Freelancers Union and the Freelancers Insurance Company and talks eloquently on mutualism. Join Grant and Sara's discussion on mutualism, in which they expound on friendly societies and the history of mutual aid societies and ask the questions: What should be the current strategy of protecting laborers? Why do local movements seem invisible to the public eye? And, what is necessary to make mutualism successful?

The best term for this era of geological history is not the Anthropocene, says Mihnea Tănăsescu, a research professor at the University of Mons in Belgium, but the Ecocene. "The increasingly frequent intrusion of ecological processes into political life” requires us to shed our anthropocentric notions, and recognize our deep, entangled relationships with nature and other living beings. In this interview, Tănăsescu talks about his book 'Ecocene Politics' and explains what it means to unlearn the modern mindset and cultivate a relational ethics of reciprocity, cooperation, and care for living beings. We must learn to renovate our legacy forms of political economy and culture, and develop the infrastructures and practices to support mutualism.

A.I., the writers' strike, and a crisis of imagination — Sara Horowitz, a lifelong mutualist, shares how we can build the future we want with mutualism.  Sara is the founder of the Freelancers Union and the Freelancers Insurance Company. A labor lawyer, former chair of the board of the New York Federal Reserve, and recipient of the MacArthur Fellowship, Sara has been featured on NPR, and in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Atlantic, among other publications. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband and daughter. Sara is currently working to build the Mutualist Society. She is also the author of the book Mutualism and writes about how we need to build our next safety net in America through the local organizations we know and trust. Mutualism exists in 4 principal areas: unions, cooperatives, mutual aid groups, and faith-based institutions, which we'll explore more in this episode. Her vision and tenacity to organize and build the world she wants to live in is admirable. She's truly a visionary thinker when it comes to the economy, labor, and societal change. Her community-oriented approach stems from her grandparents, who were garment workers in the 1920s, and from her grandfather, who helped organize and was vice president of the Ladies' Garment Workers' Union. In today's episode, you'll learn more about the historical context of labor movements and how they relate to today's culture, including the current writers' and actors' strikes. Sara shares her thoughts on the future of technology, including A.I. and DAOs (or decentralized autonomous organizations), and how we can harness this technology from a mutualistic approach that centers on collectivism, community, and building collaboratively.  Explore Sara's vision of embracing a mutualistic future that can bring about positive societal change and a better way forward.

I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about a topic that I've been wanting to cover for a long time, mutualism. It's a broad topic so we won't try to cover everything about it in this episode, just give an overview with some examples. Vaughn suggested symbiotic behavior ages ago, and Jan gave me a great example of this, also ages ago, so thanks to both of them! Mutualism is similar to other terms, including symbiosis, often referred to as “a symbiotic relationship.” I'm using mutualism as a general term, but if you want to learn more you'll quickly find that there are lots of terms referring to different interspecies relationships. Basically we're talking about two unrelated organisms interacting in a way that's beneficial to both. This is different from commensalism, where one organism benefits and the other doesn't but also isn't harmed, and parasitism, where one organism benefits and the other is harmed. We'll start with the suggestion from Jan, who alerted me to this awesome pair of animals. Many different species have developed this relationship, but we'll take as our specific example the dotted humming frog that lives in parts of western South America. The dotted humming frog is a tiny nocturnal frog that barely grows more than half an inch long from snout to vent, or about 2 cm. It lives in swamps and lowland forests and spends most of the day in a burrow underground. It comes out at night to hunt insects, especially ants. It really loves ants and is considered an ant specialist. That may be why the dotted humming frog has a commensal relationship with a spider, the Colombian lesserblack tarantula. The tarantula is a lot bigger than the frog, with its body alone almost 3 inches long, or 7 cm. Its legspan can be as much as 8 and a half inches across, or 22 cm. It's also nocturnal and spends the day in its burrow, coming out at night to hunt insects and other small animals, although not ants. It's after bigger prey, including small frogs. But it doesn't eat the dotted humming frog. One or even more of the frogs actually lives in the same burrow as the tarantula and they come out to hunt in the evenings at the same time as their spider roommate. So what's going on? Obviously the frog gains protection from predators by buddying up with a tarantula, but why doesn't the tarantula just eat the frog? Scientists aren't sure, but the best guess is that the frog protects the spider's eggs from ants. Ants like to eat invertebrate eggs, but the dotted humming frog likes to eat ants, and as it happens the female Colombian lesserblack tarantula is especially maternal. She lays about 100 eggs and carries them around in an egg sac. When the babies hatch, they live with their mother for up to a year, sharing food and burrow space. This particular tarantula also gets along with another species of frog that also eats a lot of ants. Researchers think the spiders distinguish the frogs by smell. The ant-eating frogs apparently smell like friends, or at least useful roommates, while all other frogs smell like food. Or, of course, it's possible that the ant-eating frogs smell and taste bad to the spider. Either way, both the frogs and the tarantulas benefit from the relationship--and this pairing of tiny frogs and big spiders is one that's actually quite common throughout the world. Mutualism is everywhere,

Mutualism is what occurs when two organisms benefit each other, but not necessarily on purpose. For example, humans and gut bacteria live alongside each other and benefit from the other, or the tarantulas who keep frogs as pets.

Against all odds, one species is making a comeback! Whitebark Pine! At the top of the mountain, where few other trees even try to survive, this species thrives. It is a keystone species that has developed a particularly peculiar way of spreading its young about the mountain side. Co-evolution anyone? If you like old trees, cool birds, species killing fungi, and most importantly, a story of hope, than this is the podcast for you!ResourcesPlanting the Future: Saving whitebark and limber pineWhitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation of CanadaSponsorsWest FraserGreenLink Forestry Inc.Quotes1.12.12 - 1.12.20: “One of the most important things and hopeful things you can do is plant a tree under whose shade you won't sit.”TakeawaysTelltale signs of whitebark pine (9.42)Contrary to their name, whitebark pine barks are not white, but silver, and their thick canopy makes them look like broccoli tops. Their needles occur in bunches of five instead of two. Mutualism (15.52)The Clark's Nutcracker opens the cones of the whitebark pine and stays healthy on its high-fat seeds. It has evolved a pouch under its tongue to store up to 90 seeds of the tree. Keystone and pioneering species (23.02)Brenda finds that the whitebark pine is important for many species of birds and small mammals. Prescribed fires could be beneficial to their survival.Whitebark pine proliferation (28.22)Amelie describes the Clark's Nutcracker's specialized beak, which can open the hard egg-shaped cones of the whitebark pine. The bird's range is 12-28 km. “A species that gives back more to the ecosystem than it takes” (33.28)Brenda expects the subalpine ecosystem to be different with the loss of whitebark pine, a community on which many species rely. Threats to whitebark pine (41.18)Blister rust, the mountain pine beetle beetle, fire suppression and climate change are all threats to whitebark pine. 100 Tree Survey (50.59)Brenda's role in Parks Canada is to help whitebark pine recover and survive. They visit 100 large-diameter trees in the stand in mast years and assess them for blister rust resistance. Developing infection resistance (56.50)Brenda's team extracts the seeds from infection-resistant whitebark pine cones and sends them to nurseries to grow. Two years later, they take the seedlings back to the park to grow. Protecting whitebark pine from beetles (1.03.17)Brenda's team applies 2 packets to the valuable whitebark pines every spring that send chemical messages to mountain pine beetles, which save 60% of the trees. “Everybody's favourite day is planting day” (1.09.27)Brenda shares that there are 140 whitebark pines in Jasper National Park that they believe are resistant. It's important to plant them at fair distances in microsites for protection. A video speaks a million words (1.14.29)Amelie is proud of the video that seven mountain parks in Canada came together to create to raise awareness of the whitebark conversation program and rust resistance. Do your part (1.19.49)Brenda is encouraged by how the video has inspired whitebark pine restoration efforts in Alberta and BC. Brenda believes that visiting the beautiful whitebark pine forests and supporting the Whitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation of Canada are two ways in which each person can be a part of the conservation efforts.

Michael Zargham, founder and CEO of BlockScience and Board Member of the Metagov Project, shares his views on how Blockchain and other emerging technologies are making new ways of organizing possible. Yet, Michael believes that, so far, we are not  fully using the potential of these affordances to create something new.  Smart contracts are becoming widespread, but does the relationship between crypto and organizing stop there? What's next? Which new “non-familiar” possibilities of design will we see unlocked in the next few years? Michael describes how systems designers will need to be humble and leave space for systems to evolve through enabling constraints. He also believes that the gap between the complexity of organizational design and transparency of decision-making is closing through “healthy DAOs”, blurring the line between those making the rules and those acting upon the rules.      Michael holds a Ph.D. in systems engineering from the University of Pennsylvania where he studied optimization and control of decentralized networks. Thanks to his experience, Michael Zargham has a non-common point of view on designing beyond the machine.

Her lab uses nanoprobes and high-resolution imaging to map the nutrient flows and architecture of plant-fungal networks. She is globally recognized for her scientific work in the evolution of symbiotic trade, and her public outreach activities, including a 2019 TED talk. Kiers won an Ammodo Award in 2019 for “unfettered science”, was awarded the E.O. Wilson Award for Natural History in 2021 and won an IMPACT award from the Dutch science foundation in 2021 for founding the non-profit SPUN - the Society for the Protection of Underground networks.   TOPICS COVERED:   Morel Memories  & Research in Panama   Refining Definitions of Symbiosis and Mutualism    How Ecosystems are Shaped by Competitive and Symbiotic Dynamics   Symbiosis and Mutualism without Altruism    Competition within Mutualisms    Biological Market Theory   "Decisions" vs. Genetic Strategies   Quantum Dot Technology & Visualizing Fungal Networks   Mysteries of Bi-Directional Nutrient Transport & Molecular Motors     Fungal & Plant Market Manipulations   Can Understanding Fungal Market Economies Help Us Predict the Stock Market?    How Do We Quantify Flows in Real World Forests?   SPUN – The Society for the Protection of Underground Networks    Shifting Conservation Priorities to the Unseen   EPISODE RESOURCES:   Toby Kiers Website: https://tobykiers.com/   SPUN Website: https://www.spun.earth/   Ronald Noë (Biological Market Theory): https://sites.google.com/site/ronaldnoe/RN-home?authuser=0   Rhizophagus aggregatus (fungus): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi?id=241619   

Darwin and others theorized that evolution was about the survival of the fittest. But when Peter Kropotkin followed up on Darwin's research, he discovered the competition was only part of the story of evolution in nature. And Kropotkin argued that cooperation and collaboration among organisms also helps them evolve. So, why is Darwin's narrative the dominant one? And how can an understanding of mutualism help us protect the ecosystems we depend on and find solutions to climate change? Kristin Ohlson is an award-winning freelance journalist and author of The Soil Will Save Us: How Scientists, Farmers, and Foodies are Healing the Soil to Save the Planet. Her new release is called Sweet in Tooth and Claw: Stories of Generosity and Cooperation in the Natural World. On this episode of Reversing Climate Change, Kristin joins Ross to explain why the study of mutualism in the evolution of nature has lagged, and challenge us to recognize and protect the cooperative relationships among organisms in our ecosystems. Kristin shares some of her favorite stories from the book, describing how ranchers, scientists, and government leaders worked together to heal a degraded landscape in Eastern Nevada. Listen in for Kristin's insight on the growth of regenerative agriculture and learn how mutualism gives organisms superpowers as they work together to survive and thrive in extreme environments.

Today on Mushroom Hour we are host to the distinguished Dr. Kabir Peay – head of Stanford University's Peay Lab. Dr. Peay completed a master's degree at the Yale School of Forestry and Environment Science (F&ES) in 2003 and obtained a PhD in 2008 from UC Berkeley's Dept. of Environmental Science, Policy and Management (ESPM) in Matteo Garbelotto's lab. He completed postdoctoral training at UC Berkeley in the Dept. of Plant & Microbial Biology with Tom Bruns, and at Stanford in the Dept. of Biology with Tadashi Fukami. He was an Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Plant Pathology at the University of Minnesota from 2011-2012 before coming to Stanford in 2012 to join the Dept. of Biology in his current position. The Peay lab studies the ecological processes that structure natural communities and the links between community structure and the cycling of nutrients and energy through ecosystems - focusing on fungi! Much of the research focuses on plant-fungal root associations, better known as mycorrhizas, which constitute one of the most pervasive mutualisms in terrestrial ecosystems. By integrating their lines of research, they hope to weave together a 'roots-to-biomes' understanding of plant-microbe symbiosis.   TOPICS COVERED:   A Love of Nature, Inspiration in the East   From Environmental Consulting into Ecological Understanding   Discovering Fungal Symbioses   Defining Ecology & Community Assembly   Understanding Scale in Community Ecology    Embracing Fungi in All of Their Ecological Roles   Facultative Capacities of Fungi   Mycorrhizal Lessons in Community Ecology    Broadening Ecological Perspectives Beyond Purely Competitive Frameworks   MISSPs & Mediating Mycorrhizal Interactions   Fungal Biogeography   Ecological Succession & Stages of Community Assembly   Future of Mycorrhizal Research   Mapping Fungal Genes to Ecological Functions   EPISODE RESOURCES:   Peay Lab Academic Website: https://mykophile.stanford.edu/   Dr. Peay Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=E6GRsP4AAAAJ&hl=en   Dipterocarpaceae - tree family: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipterocarpaceae   Chytrids: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chytridiomycota   Pinus ponderosa (tree species): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinus_ponderosa   Suilllus pungens (fungus species): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suillus_pungens

What's up to my entrepreneurial echidnas and unbiased utonagans! Welcome back to the BNP beloved listeners and thank you so much for joining! To my patrons: you all are the parity in my value-for-value barter exchange, I appreciate you! For this week's episode, we tackle a fascinating, highly relevant and timely topic: Counter-economics and Agorism. Counter-economics is an economic theory and revolutionary method consisting of direct action carried out through the black and gray market. Agorism is a social philosophy that advocates the creation of a society in which all relations between people are voluntary, symbiotic and mutualist, using counter-economics as the means of exchange. Think symbiosis in nature but in the realm of the human agora: a truly free and strictly voluntary marketplace. What's even better, you are likely already engaged in the counter economy! Do you pay your neighbor a few bucks to mow your lawn? Do you pay your babysitter in cash? Have you ever picked up a dime bag from your friendly neighborhood ganja farmer? Congratulations, you're actively participating in the agora!  This is a thought-provoking episode not to be missed, enjoy! Come for the agorism, stay for the zany audio tidbits!

In this episode, your co-host Nikishka Iyengar talks to tech entrepreneur and ecosystem builder, Aniyia Williams about a framework they call ‘systems entrepreneurship'. Systems entrepreneurship directly addresses systemic inequities while building ecosystems and movements (rather than just companies or industries). Highlights: • The journey to becoming a systems entrepreneur and what it entails • The tech industry's broken-ness as it relates to venture capital, and alternative financing tools • Building ecosystems of support for tech entrepreneurs of color • The importance of conflict resolution skills as a tool for a more liberated economy • Mutualism and re-building the social safety net Full episode details and transcript available here: https://www.theroadtorepair.com/season1/ep5-systems-entrepreneurship-and-mutualism-with-aniyia-williams

In this series on symbiosis, we're taking a deep dive into the many different types of relationships organisms have evolved into, the good, the bad, the benign. This episode highlights mutualisms, those relationships where both organisms involved benefit. We look at the broad categories of mutualism (service vs resource), discuss the evolutionary origins of multicellular life, and how the organisms involved (the symbionts) are in a constant battle to try and out-exploit the other symbiont. Welcome to The Single Acorn.
