\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> One full mic for subject matter. The depth, breadth, and wonder of these episodes is noteworthy. The one criticism I have is that, sometimes, the content is very science-heavy and might lose some listeners. But that is partly a result of the type of information around the argument being made, and sometimes, the fascination of the topic lies in the science. So, no ding to the mic rating here.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> One full mic for quality of guests. Matt\u2019s guests are all experts, well-spoken in their fields, and definitely worth listening to.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> One full mic for Matt. He is knowledgeable, interesting, and a true hero to those of us who love ecology and the wonders of the plant world. He is a very good teacher and an excellent interviewer.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> Half a mic for production quality. The audio quality is inconsistent, which can really be distracting. On the other hand, the accompanying show notes are really good.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> One full mic for how it comes together as a podcast that nature lovers won\u2019t want to miss.<\/span><\/p>\n
