Plants and Pipettes

we talk about plants and (used to) use pipettes

All episodes

  • 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!

  • Catnip could be pollinated by cats

  • 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.

  • Meow meow, meow meow meow!

    Believe it or not, we had a chatBot write our title this week. Oh the wonders of science. Speaking of science: plants. Plant science. Sciency plants. planty planty planty science. Now!

  • 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.
