Climate Change got you down? Worried about the fact that *everything* seems to be getting worse? Wondering how we got to this point in the first place, and what can we do to build a more resilient future? We take a look at historical pastoral & agricultural societies to see what worked and what didn’t, as well as what resources we have today to make better decisions to build equitable systems. We don’t just discuss ecology and history but also take a leftist perspective on prepping, foraging, homesteading, weapons, community-building, and basically anything that needs discussing during late-stage capitalism.

Microbes & Nitrogen: Return of the Soyboys
Tuesday Dec 20, 2022
Tuesday Dec 20, 2022
In this episode, we explore the biochemical activity that takes place in our soil around nitrogen. How does understanding this relationship help us understand what is happening in our soils and what can we do to be better stewards for our plants? We discuss the roles of bacteria and fungi in the cycling of nitrogen in the soil, how this impacts pH, and why certain species utilize one nitrogen form better than others and why this matters in our soil management, including around making compost.
