    14 - Garlic

    In this final episode of Twigged's first season, Alice and Alex discuss the mighty, versatile, and sometimes a little stinky... garlic. We've got ancient physicians, pharaoh's tombs, vampires, and... shockingly... MORE crammed into this 27-minute episode. Sit back with your garlic-saturated carb of choice and have a listen (bonus points if you catch Alex saying "cookling" and trying to style it out).

    13 - Apples

    We're bringing it back to basics with everyone's favourite classic, the Apple. Witches? Check. Greek gods and goddesses? Check. Apple pie? You betcha! Cyanide...? Ok maybe just a touch. Follow the scent of fresh-baked goodness to find out what Alice and Alex have to say this time. We've also got some extra special musical treats courtesy of our friends, Rich and Emily.

    11 - Cherry Tree

    If you've ever revelled in the sight of tightly-packed blossoms, found bliss in hoovering up every last crumb of a Bakewell tart, or ordered a cupful of maraschino cherries as snack (no?... just us...?) we've got an episode for you. This time, Alice and Alex explore the facts and fictions of the beautiful cherry tree.

    10 - Thistles

    Get your sturdy boots and gloves on! This week, we're exploring the iconic world of thistles. Another absolutely top-notch listener suggestion brings us a rich array of stories. We've got marauding spirits! We've got careless soldiers! We've got breastmilk! It's all very rock-and-roll.

    9 - Dandelion

    Ah the dandelion - friend, foe, and source of unlimited (well...) entertainment. Have you ever wanted to expand your repertoire of dandelion-related games? Yes, you say? You've never wanted anything more? Excellent! Alice and Alex have got you covered. Add some crunchy facts and juicy stories and you've got yourself a delicious auditory dish.

    8 - Myrtle

    A truly excellent suggestion from listener Ben led us to this - our new favourite plant. From now on, you can find Alice & Alex covered head-to-toe in this delectably-scented bush. Will the foliage get in the way of our recording equipment? Maybe. Will it be worth it? We can only assume the answer is yes. Now plug in those headphones and let us tell you what Aphrodite's been up to.

    7 - Rosemary

    Our very first listener request episode is here! A winner on potatoes, at a wedding, or in your hair - come unlock the secrets of Rosemary with your hungry hosts, Alice and Alex. (And by that we definitely mean hungry for knowledge - in no way and at no point have stomach growlings been edited out of this episode).
