Undiscovered - Plants And Prejudice
Are non-native species all that bad, or are we just prejudiced against “the Other”? In the San Francisco Bay Area, one particular foreign species has been dividing environmentalists for years: the blue gum eucalyptus. Eucalyptus opponents say it’s a serious fire hazard. Defenders say there’s no good evidence it’s worse than native plants. Which is it? And is the fight against non-native species grounded in science or xenophobia? In this episode of Undiscovered, Annie and Elah investigate.

The Goods from the Woods - Episode #214 – “Tribute Albums” with John-Michael Bond
In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys, and their special guest host Joe Raines, are joined by one of our favorite past guests of the show: John-Michael Bond! This episode is all about the record store oddity that is the TRIBUTE ALBUM. Ever since people starting doing weird ass Beatles tributes in the 70's, these curiosities of pop music have befuddled everyone who's ever listened to one. This episode covers bizarre covers of The Carpenters by Sonic Youth, The Ramones by U2, The Doors by Smash Mouth, Big Tymers by Devil Wears Prada, and ZZ Top by Nickelback. Also, how the fuck are Scarlett Johansson, Adam Sandler, Billy Bob Thornton, and Liam Neeson all wrapped-up in this phenomenon? Tune in to one of our finest episodes to date to find out!

Opening Arguments - OA214: Free Speech, NAFTA & Trump’s Trans Ban
Today's Kavanaugh-free episode is a classic, three-story, Deep Dive Tuesday into (1) a recent free speech case involving protesters at a Trump rally; (2) the status of Trump's efforts to ban trans service personnel from the military; and (3) whether Trump can unilaterally abrogate NAFTA. Strap in -- it's going to be a long ride!
We begin with an examination of Nwanguma v. Trump at both the district court level and the recent decision from the 6th Circuit. Should protesters be allowed to sue Trump and his campaign staff for incitement to riot? Listen and find out!
After that, we examine the status of Trump's latest (Mar. 23, 2018) order on trans personnel in the military. Is there... good news out of the Ninth Circuit??!?
Then, we check out the history of presidential withdrawals from treaty obligations, a case involving a former Presidential candidate (Barry Goldwater) versus a sitting President (Jimmy Carter), and Donald Trump's constant claims that he can abrogate the North American Free Trade Agreement. Is any of this true? The answer almost certainly will surprise you!
Finally, we end with Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #95 regarding the Congressional delegation of rule-making authority to the Forest Service. Remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!

Ologies with Alie Ward - Functional Morphology (ANATOMY) with Joy Reidenberg
Ever poked at roadkill? Watched videos of whales exploding? Drooled over a curio cabinet full of claws & bones? Peered into a jar with a pickled toad? Then this one is for you. Arguably the world's most famous comparative anatomist (and pretty-much-also functional morphologist) Dr. Joy Reidenberg pulls up a chair at Mt. Sinai Hospital to talk about her fascinating backstory, exploding whales, taxidermied chipmunks, dead toadfish, animal's weird anatomy and its function and how it might help human health. She is absolutely amazing and you will become obsessed with her work.
