In this special collaboration episode, Danni chats with Dr. Vikram Baliga, a.k.a. the plant professor the host of the successful "Planthropology" podcast. Vikram talks about his journey that led him from being lost to finishing a PhD in Horticultural Science at Texas Tech University and becoming an award-winning lecturer in it, owning his own business, being a manager of the university greenhouse, and a successful podcaster. Vikram shares about his passion for plants that started with his MD grandfather, and his hobbies of woodworks, music, and photography.

Vikram also talks about his podcast and how the idea was triggered in his mind, and about his hilarious and educational tik-tok videos. In this special episode Danni drank Amaretto and Vikram drank his coffee.
