Plants and Pipettes

Tegan and Joram explore the world of molecular plant research. How to plants sense their environment? What controls their metabolism? How do they store energy? Come along to an excursion into the very cells of all green things!

A much larger duck, effectively a submarine

We recorded this gem a while back but because Joram we are only publishing it now. So if any of our jokes feel dated, it’s because of that. Clearly. We are always very topical and on point with our humour.

Is a grape just as sweet without the colour?

We have a packed episode for you with news from never-browning potatoes, mysterious sunflowers and also an answer to your constant question: How many cells are there?

The end was a little bit sad, but I liked the beginning

Did you know? We didn’t either! We were just as surprised as you are right now and let’s indulge in this feeling together with this new spoken word content by your favourite content producers!

Hi. This is a new episode. It’s about plants, pipettes, panic and paranoia. Please enjoy.

I shot all my powder

We are talking pigweed. We are talking ATPase in diatoms. We are talking trees. What more do you want?!

Walk like an ant, look like a plant, be a spider

This week, it’s all about plants. What they do, why they do it and what to look out for when looking at plants. Marvellous!

Plants are big straws

Welcome to Ants and Pipettes, the podcast about ants and their relationship to plants and also there are pipettes. I don’t know. Have fun!

Plants and Rats

In this episode, Joram harnesses the powers of technology to prepare himself in a much worse way, arguably. So learn from Joram and reject technology (after you finished using technology to listen to this show, please)!

Draw Joram a picture of smart orchards, please

Yes, this is the plant podcast. No, we are not three people running it. Don’t listen to the bots. We know who we are. We think.

Playing around with the ploidy level of plants

We recorded in advance but then Joram edited late so overall it evens out to just be a day late in your feed. Not that you care, we know you live life like us, one moment at a time, not knowing what day of the week is today. At least we hope you do so we look less messy. Anyway – plants!

The broccoli-cauliflower-conundrum

We are back from the break! We are completely different but also pretty much the same so come along and learn about mucus seeds, pink cotton, dandelion physics and a play performed by two very much non-actors.

Bishop’s balls

While plant science missed out on yet another Nobel prize, you are not missing out on yet another great plant science episode. We have a hairy balled plant, some evidence about ATP and a whole Can of Spinach!

Party of Pokers

They trained dogs to search for underground orchids and we trained ourselves to talk about it. Amazing.

Turn humans into moss

Last week, we wanted to be moss and this week science has listened to us and turned human (cells) into moss. Well kinda. Not really. A little bit. Still, we’re excited to become moss.

We are mosses

If we could choose, we’d be mosses growing on opposite sides of the same tree.

Big British Cheese 1

Would you trust us if we spoke badly about cheese? This, and other science facts in our newest plant science show for you!

It’s not you, it’s us

Sometimes, technology makes our lives better. On other occasions, it makes it much harder. This week was one of those times, the recording equipment failed on us. We still did a fun show full of cool plant science, it just doesn’t sound as nice. Sorry!

A thirsty secret

We’re back from our holidays and we brought a big bag of plant facts from the last couple of weeks of plant science!

We're on holiday!

No big plant news this week, we are on holiday for a couple of weeks!
