This episode of The Herbalist Hour is a super special one! On our way back from a wedding, we were able to swing through Seattle and hang out with rapper Torin Frost.

For those of you that don't know, Torin is the creator of The Herbalist Hour theme song. He did an incredible job with it, so I asked him some questions about his inspiration for the song.

We also talk a lot about his debut mixtape that just dropped called "The Drip of the Iceberg".

Later in the conversation Torin starts freestyle rapping about a few of our favorite plant allies! 

He's an incredibly talented artist, a super funny guy, and a humble and kind soul doing great work in this world. 

I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did, and please go give his mixtape a listen if you're a hip hop head like me.

In today's episode I'm joined by Jennifer Braverman and Ellen Selm.

They're the hosts of the Stories from the Earth Podcast, available on your podcast player of choice.

Stories from the Earth was actually the second podcast I was interviewed on, so it was great to turn the tables and get to know them a bit better.

We chat about how they met, the Asheville Herb Fest, herbal podcasting, some herbs that have had a positive impact on their lives and a whole lot more!

Jesus Garcia | The Herbalist Hour Ep. 41

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I'm joined by my good friend Jesus Garcia. 

I had a great time chatting with him about chia, red clover, oak, teaching herbalism to children, The Herbal Action Project, fire rituals, altars and a whole lot more.

Jesus is a WEALTH of knowledge, he's super kind and just a wonderful person to hang out with. 

I really hope you enjoy this convo as much as I did!

If you did, please give the video a big ol' thumbs up 👍

And leave us a comment with any takeaways you had or if you just want to say hi to Jesus.
