The One About Being Late (Ad Free Audio)

Girl I watched all these channels as a kid and was definitely not a rich kid. Not even close . Skeeter is def is black and Patti is Afro Latina pretty sure

First, they're not posting the audio "late", they're posting the video early, and second, you're real bold telling ppl what to do with THEIR OWN podcast, the sense of ownership coming from you is... bold.

Bob not watching PBS confirmed after listening to this episode 😭

Ya'll, I am an aquatic biologist and a cousin of the pod. I will give ya'll my phone number to settle some of these debates. I work with biologists of every kind so can also find a subject matter expert for whatever your random questions may be.. happy to offer my services <3

Oh, Ms. Bob the Botantist now, are we? (aw, just kidding 🙃💓) I don't know shit about shit! Well, I don't know shit about shit with the exception of the following FUN FUNGI factoids, alliteration-heavy as they may be: If you think that all of the squallin' and bawlin' from our fiercely-fronded-floral friends and dreamy-dendritic-divas is wacky, check out this article about mushrooms. They have these intricate, labyrinthine neural networks beneath the soil with which they can communicate with one another, sometimes miles and miles away. Like, if a plant was drying up across the forest, they (they=the underground web-thingy called the mycelial network. It's like a sprawling, ginormous underground brain!) would shoot out a message and inquire, 'HEY this leafy lady is thirsty, can you help her out?' And the message then zips through the network, however far away, and sends extra moisture and nutrients and shit back to our gal. Even crazier, if a plant has a bug infestation or is being chomped on by some huge n hungry herbivore, the network can send a word of warning to their plant-friend, so that said plant-friend can ready herself and begin to take preventative measures, initiating the production of some anti-insect chemical cocktail before the bugs even get to her. WAAAT Ooh, and: the biggest fungal colony ever discovered covers like 2,000-ish acres and is 2,300 or 2,400 mothertucking YEARS OLD. Also, fungi has all sorts of practical benefits, nutrition and medicine n shit -- not-with-standing the fact they can make you trip out and actually enter another goddamned plane of existence. Also there are some real and reputable science-folk that posit the possibility of our shroomies being from space. Fungus-like schtuff was discovered ON MARS MOTHERFUCKERS. Mushie spores' outer layer is 1.) electron-dense and colored a metallic purple, which protects them from ultraviolet rays and could easily allow them to travel through the feckkking VACUUM OF OUTER SPACE and, 2.) is oh, y'know, just made out of literally the hardest planty compound IN ALL OF NATURAL EXISTENCE bonkers, huh? From the article titled, 'Are Mushrooms From Outer Space?' by Megan Paulson on explorebigsky.com: 'The late ethnobotanist Terence McKenna suggested that mushrooms are responsible for human intelligence as we know it. His theory hypothesized that mushroom spores possess all of the necessary requirements to travel on space currents. Furthermore, they could have settled in the brain matter of primitive humanoids and, following the lines of modern day hallucinogenic mushrooms, directly contributed to our modern day intelligence and self awareness. McKenna went on to theorize that mushrooms are the reason there is human life on earth. While this may seem like material from a science fiction novel, there is no avoiding the fact that mushrooms possess many traits that are unique to their kingdom alone.' (Actually there's a much better piece by Steven Voser from Zamnesia.com titled 'The Mushroom - Our Extra-Terresrial Friend From Outer Space?') Lastly, you can look up the Terance Mckenna-Art Bell Lecture 1998 right here on the YewTewbz. And there's a positively BANANAS article about a lovely gent named Paul Stamets working w NASA about terra-forming and fucking house-building and astronaut shroom-therapying from ScientificAmerican.com, by Nick Hilden: 'Future Space Travel Might Require Mushrooms'. The Mr. Paul Stamets' book is titled 'Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World'. If anyone is interested: '10 Things to Know About the Mycelial Network' from FantasticFungi.com (very short) 'The Wood Wide Web: Underground Fungi-Plant Communication Network' by Annie Chen, from Aggietrascript.ucdavis.edu PHEW ... Well.I did not anticipate blathering so very much. Whoops. I do believe I am the prime example of 'Nobody Asked'. 😬 I just thought it was neat?.. Mkbyee

love

No Monet is right! It’s a FR study, AND one time when I was little I’ll never forget this, I hit a golden barrel cactus with a stick (idk why evil child) and it literally cried like it made a wining sound so I knew it was true when that study came out
