    I’m in Canada and it never ceases to amaze me when I go to tropical places and see all my house plants chilling in an outside garden happy as can be.

      When I went to Costa Rica it blew my mind seeing a toucan, I thought those just lived on the side of cereal boxes.

    An interesting tangent. The term broadcast for radio comes from farming and broadcasting seeds when planting. Podcast naturally evolved from that term. I’m imagining the podcast they listened too is called “Peas In A Pod.” with talking peas discussing plant facts.

      The Pod in podcast comes from Ipod, back in the olden days an Ipod was the only way to listen to Podcasts

        I like how you upset two different people for entirely different reasons. One for it being so old that their mortality comes into question, one for it being the origin.

        I find podcasts funny in that when they first came out, my boss as the time wouldn’t stfu about the latest one he found that I should definitely buy and iPod for and binge it all. But now? I listen to podcasts more than music when driving. Just hundreds and hundreds of hours of listening to them.
