Synopsis

In this episode, I chat with Anne-Marie Hodge, Samantha Calkins, and Gabriella Mizell. The former two work together to study a species of cactus that has been recently introduced to the Laikipia Plateau of Kenya, while Gabby studies various aspects of an ant-plant partnership that helps to shape the savanna. We talk about what it's like to miss out on American cultural trends, strange phenomena around the savanna, and the beauty of the Swahili language.
