    S2S5: Glondo and Agaves - Bryan MacNeill

    Bryan MacNeill didn't used to be a plant guy. "They don't move," he said. "How dumb are they?" he asked. But after a field botany course, he learned to love our little green friends. In this episode, Louis and Meghan talk about that journey as well as Bryan's experience as a extra in Dolphin Tale 2, his unfortunate pocket dial to his university's IT department, and his stories about Glondo the gnome lawyer.

    S2E4: Antarctica and Overwatch - Nick Roberts

    Nick Roberts has been all over the globe, from the San Juan Islands in the Pacific Northwest to the Azores in the Atlantic. They just returned from a research expedition to the bottom of the world and they're excited to tell us all about it. Nothing comes close to the Antarctic experience--except possibly Taco Bell Crunch Wraps and/or throwing a scholarship game in a college-level gaming tournament.

    S2E1: Geology and Gambits - Andrew Osborne

    We are back for season two! We're kicking it off with Andrew Osborne, a hydrogeology student at the University of South Carolina. He's a man of many hobbies and interests such as swimming, chess, and eating chocolate chip cookies--all of which have taught him valuable lessons. He's also Louis's childhood best friend, so we might be a bit biased when we say we're excited to have him for our season two opener.
