I lichen like that!

It’s an episode lichen you’ve never heard before! Dr Cat and science educator Finn McHenry literally queer-ied lichens – those curious little lifeforms that are part fungus, part algae, and 100% symbiotic slay. They ask some big questions about how science sees nature, and how queerness helps us see it differently.

This episode originally aired on 8th April, 2025.
