The Biologic PodcastAuthor: biologic932@gmail.com
Welcome to the Biologic Podcast, an audio exploration of the incredible world of living things. The journey begins at the dawn of life, almost 4 billion years ago. In this ancient eon, biochemical reactions gave rise to ordered systems (the cell) capable of replication. The key to this replication is the genome, and the DNA itself. At this point, the journey expands in scope; we will explore the process of evolution, then move through hundreds of millions of years of evolutionary history until we come to the modern day, to survey the modern world's biodiversity. Then we'll take a step back to look at the ecological interactions of all this life, and the resulting biomes that define the surface of our planet Earth. Our journey through the biological realm takes a sudden turn; having learned about life at the grandest scale, we now return to the ground, to look in greater detail at the various organisms that share this world with us. We first explore the physiology & diversity of plants, and then same for the fungi. Moving from flora to fauna, we explore the physiology & diversity of animals, up to and including the human being. The path is long and the lessons hard, but for the ever-curious listener, there are many great discoveries and insights to be had in the world of the biological.

Episode 117 - The Soil Biome
Episode 3
Saturday, 15 February, 2025
Welcome to Episode 117! In today's special episode, we'll be stepping back from the myriapods to examine the soil biome itself. We will explore all aspects of the soil, from its material composition and chemical qualities, to its ecological role as a foundational substrate for life. This episode will transform the way you think about the dirt under your feet, and pull back the curtain to reveal the incredible biological activity thrumming along just under the surface.
