    Argentine Ants with Thomas O'Mahony

    On this episode we have a very special guest, podcaster and producer Thomas O'Mahony to talk about an underappreciated global menace. No, it's not Subway, fentanyl, or the resurgence of fascism. It's the Argentine ant! Tom is co-host of Lions Led By Donkeys, Beneath the Skin and his newest podcast is Blood Work. Episode thumbnail taken from this 2009 BBC article about squirrels. Thanks BBC!

    Carl Schenck and the rise of American forestry as a profession

    In our first episode on the founding fathers of American forestry we cover Carl Schenck. A forgotten German forester who proposed an alternative vision of American forestry focused on private ownership rather than the state. Which vision wins out? Do the boys get called out by a German from 200 years in the past? Is Gifford Pinchot a petty bitch? Tune in to find out! Have a question or a topic you'd like us to cover?

    Invasive Species! What they are, and why they suck.

    In this episode, we talk about the bane of natural resources managers everywhere: invasive species. We cover the definition of an invasive species, what makes them so good at invading, and broadly how to treat them. There's also a fair amount of ranting and even a little bit of despair! But hey, it's not all bad. Invasive species mean job security for folks like us! Have a question or a topic you'd like us to cover? Send us a message at seedpod.pod@gmail.com

    What is a forest?

    In our first "real" episode, we're going to try to answer a surprisingly complicated question: what is a forest? We'll talk about ecological versus legal definitions of "forest," some of the intricacies of different types of forests, and try our hardest to avoid getting derailed with varying levels of success.
