(image source: https://bit.ly/3nzXfXg)

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Natasha Krech discuss Glossopteris, an ancient tree that… wait, where are you going?! C’mon, not every episode can be about scary dinosaurs with big pointy teeth! From the Permian period, this 100-foot tall seed fern helped paleontologists first propose the idea of continental drift, due to being found all over the southern Gondwanan continents… yeah, you’ve already left, haven’t you? Eh, I don’t blame you, I’m just surprised you lasted nearly 150 episodes.
