The Biofriendly Podcast

Three guys walk into a podcast… and immediately apologize to Jesus 😅. This episode is part therapy session, part comedy club, and part “wait… are we the problem?” We unpack faith, childhood, nostalgia, and why we might accidentally joke about sacred stuff (oops). It’s honest, messy, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt. No hate—just humans trying to figure it out. Come laugh, reflect, and maybe forgive us.

We wanted to extend a huge heartfelt thank you to all of you out there that have listened, supported and shared The Biofriendly Podcast over the past 5 years. We've spent this year writing, filming and developing our new uplifting series called "Upward Spiral" which has finally ARRIVED! You can watch it on YouTube, but we've also made a podcast version if that's still your jam. As you know, The Biofriendly Podcast focused on how we could work together to help clean our planet, but we wanted to shift our focus to the listener's experience of the world and try to elevate human nature and launch everyone into the UPWARD SPIRAL! You'll hear the same silly banter as before, but the show has grown immensely and we are incredibly proud. Thank you for a wonderful 5 years! The Biofriendly Podcast (2019-2024)

Join us for a famously tangential Biofriendly Podcast full of Shakespearean quips and portable office cuisine as we eventually find our way to this historic swarm of cicada broods.

As Gen Z begins to enter the workforce, you may be surprised to hear that trades like plumbing and electrical are on the rise.

"Build Your Dreams," is embossed on a small EV called the Seagull being made in China-- and the most extraordinary feature is that it costs just under 10 grand! The only problem? We cannot get them imported here in the United States... BUT, this new design by BYD in China is forcing all the major car manufacturers around the world to dream up something better and cheaper and fast! This week, we discuss the pros and cons of a 'cheapy EV' and how this could transform the auto industry for good.

This week we're talking about SMRs- no, not ASMR, but in fact Small Modular Reactors which could provide no-emission energy in a big way. Currently most SMRs are used underwater in submarines or floating around on boats, but can we take this nuclear tech to more people on land in a safe, reliable way. Tune in to find out why the U.S. is racing to stay on top of SMR's, how we can unite the world with funk, and did we get the ghost of George Gaynes on the show?

Nearly a decade ago, California decided that they had to do something about the ever-growing plastic bag problem. The solution?

As most auto manufacturers have been quick to switch to Electric Vehicles, Toyota has been keeping themselves busy as they wait patiently in the EV wings. But what have they been up to?

If we are trying to rebuild coral reefs in our ocean, what would make the best starter kit?
