Welcome to the 44th episode of the Science Witch Podcast!

For the inaugural episode with Daniel joining as a co-host, the three of us discuss the topic of breath from each of our own unique perspectives and expertise. Anjel talks about yoga and their practice of breath work and pranayama, Daniel talks about breath from an anatomical and vocal training perspective, and Enku talks about mindfulness meditation and breath as well as clean air inequality and how racism and classism intersects with the issue of clean air. We also talk a bit about the different locations we each hail from and how having a podcast based out of three different locations is something we are excited to bring to our listeners.

Welcome to the 42nd episode of the Science Witch Podcast!

In this Episode, Enku and Anjel chat with Danny Graves  who is currently featured on Season 15 of Naked and Afraid. In this episode, we discuss how spirituality and survivalism intersect for Danny and help to empower him in his survival skills. We also talk about our own survival situations we’ve been in as well as some poisonous plants that Danny got to know well in the arid regions of South Africa. We also talk a bit about embodiment and how it felt to be naked on television for a nationally syndicated show. Still waiting for Danny to start OnlyDans.
