Summary
You remember that time I forgot to plug my microphone in? 😅 Well, I didn’t do that again, but I think I didn’t have the recording settings correct because the audio sounds like it recorded through the laptop mic. Which is to say, it's terrible. The script will be publicly available on Patreon, for free, for anyone who has trouble hearing/understanding this one. That aside, this week, we’re going to take a shallow dive into a very large and diverse genus of plants by meeting three of its most popular species.
