Wired for Life - Natures Secret Code
In this wandering-yet-profound episode, the hosts explore the interconnectedness of life-natural and artificial-through stories about pollen, memes, IT nerds, elephants, strip mall economies, and gut bacteria. What starts as a walk through muffler-laced streets quickly dives into deep symbiosis: how trees may chemically communicate, how gut flora shapes our identity and choices, and how memes might be distracting us from climate collapse. Along the way, we meet the "Gigachad of IT nerds", examine fecal transplants, explore breast milk vs. formula, and ask if free will is just another chemical illusion. It's science, sarcasm, and social philosophy, all tangled up in data-both digital and biological.

Modern Corporate Racism & Causesumerism
In this episode of Positively Pedestrian, we discuss the intricacies of racism and misappropriated modern versions of perpetuating racist thinking through hypocritical so-called "diversity and inclusion" training and various other inappropriate artifacts of corporate culture regardless of intent. Race is a social construct, not a scientific or empirical quality of humanity, so we discuss possible ways to move past the social construct. Lastly, we discuss what it means to be marginalized and ways we can move away from the status quo and do far better.
