Ep. 207 Man-Eating Plants

from Fascinating Gadgets, Gizmos, and Gear Based Technologies

As human beings, we are lucky enough to be at the top of the food chain.  Being at the top means there is nothing above us.  No predators to watch out for, nothing evolving to eat is specifically.  We never have to check our rear view.  Or do we?  In this episode we discuss what makes a good human predator, and it turns out its plants!  That’s right, if we are going to be taken out, it will be by an attractive, seemingly harmless plant with beautiful flowers and hallucinogenic pollen.  Listen as we discuss the dangers of high coconuts, using a pitcher plant as a toilet, and how Ben deals with nightmares of Muppets.
