episode 28: Murder of Crows Podcast
This is the spoooooookiest episode of our podcast! We have scary stories, spooky facts and gruesome details about plants and pipettes. We recorded in full costume and would like to see your plant related costumes! Send them to us!
episode 27: You know nothing, RuBisCO.
Sometimes, it's ok to do a short episode. After all, there is plenty to listen to again on here, so yeah. We talk about RuBisCO research and plants and stuff. It really is like the ones before but different and with other topics.
episode 26: We hate bigotry but we love leaves
It's autumn! We just came back from a trip to Berlin's botanical garden and record for the first time ever remotely – so forgive us for any technical hiccups. This week, we got a bit lost in a long discussion about the usefulness of committees as safeguards concerning ethical questions and we promise that we're usually not that angry.
episode 25: Free Access to Bonnie Tyler
We talk quite a bit about airports in the beginning but actually this episode is about CRISPR (yay!), favourite plants (yaaaaaayyy!) and fun stuff (yyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!). It's a good episode.
episode 24: There's an actual leaf in my chili
Tegan was wearing beautiful earrings. Unfortunately for you, they happen to make a nice little clinking sound that you might or might not pick up from the recording. Also I had terrible discipline in touching noisy wrapping paper. We're terribly sorry, but the episode is worth it, I promise. 😘
episode 23: There is no such thing as a non-GMO peanut
Oh no, GMO! Did you know that your GMO-free peanuts are far from being free from transgenes? Also they're full of chemicals, most of which are taken up by the body and used in the human metabolism. Beware the mighty peanut!
episode 22: Don't be a swan
You are your own lucksmith so you're to blame for tuning in on this very good episode. it is very good.
episode 21: High achievers in science
We are not only achievers in science, we are officially high achievers in science. Don't believe us? Ask Stefanie, she'll tell you. This week we bring you research on agrivoltaics, facts about tulips and two tired podcasters. Please enjoy.
episode 20: Pipettes and the use of pipettes in pipetting
This week we talk about cool light assembling proteins, shrimp plants and cats in backpacks.
episode 19: Don't get me started on the gig economy
This week, we're looking at the right time of day to apply herbicides, present leading figures in plant science from a diverse background and have not one but two favourite plants!
