Informative and Entertaining

It’s been a while since I added a new podcast to my list, and I have never left a review before as most of my favorites are well known programs. Then, I saw the Lawn episode of Propagated Podcast on my Twitter timeline. What drew me in was simple - as a longtime lawn hater - I wanted to hear more about how terrible they are (it’s bad y’all). What I wasn’t expecting was incredibly fun and engaging hosts. Checked out a few other episodes and I’m sold. Each episode has been really informative and entertaining. Looking forward to working through the back-catalog and listening to new episodes as they release.

charming and informative!

Frankie and Daniel are such lovely funny folks who do an excellent job sharing plant knowledge! They go beyond merely offering cool facts and trivia to contextualize things with great history and attention to (anti) capitalism and colonialism. Highly recommend!
