PODCAST

Seedy Business

There"s nothing cozier than curling up with a seed catalog and dreaming about next year"s garden. Seedy Business is a relaxing, pathologically low-stakes chat between Allison, a biologist, and Roman, just some guy, about garden seeds and how they are marketed. Listen as we struggle in vain to suppress our natural inclinations toward vocal leftism and recreational vulgarity to deliver a soothing seed experience.
