This is my favorite podcast, Shannon is super cute and friendly and all her guests are specialists in their fields. She’s able to blend deep scientific info into easily digestible content for your basic lay person. She brings in these highly educated scientists to discuss a variety of topics and somehow make the dullest of topics (worms) entertaining. There’s plenty of great tips for you to take that help benefit the native species in your own yards and community. Thanks Shannon and guests!
