It's Louis and Meghan, your favorite academics in training. Join us every other Wednesday to fall for up-and-coming academics and learn a little bit on the side.
Bryan MacNeill didn't used to be a plant guy. "They don't move," he said. "How dumb are they?" he asked. But after a field botany course, he learned to love our little green friends. In this episode, Louis and Meghan talk about that journey as well as Bryan's experience as a extra in Dolphin Tale 2, his unfortunate pocket dial to his university's IT department, and his stories about Glondo the gnome lawyer.

They just returned from a research expedition to the bottom of the world and they're excited to tell us all about it. Nothing comes close to the Antarctic experience--except possibly Taco Bell Crunch Wraps and/or throwing a scholarship game in a college-level gaming tournament.
