Thanks Nate! You've interviewed some incredible guests this year and I'm really grateful for the work you're doing. You've helped me thread together so many thoughts and observations that I held separately before, thank you.

Thank you Nate. I am an avid 'seeker'. I have been listening to your podcast for the past year. Congratulations on your very successful 2022 podcasting year. Awesome array of guests over the past year. Love your interview style. Honest, inspiring, straight forward, intelligent, kind, thoughtful, open-minded, sincere, focused, engaged, heartfelt...and I could go on. I usually always come away from a Great Simplification and Frankly episodes having a little better understanding of the immense complexity of our dire predicament, but also always grateful for new insight and enlightenment, with a smattering of reassurance that all is not (yet) lost. There IS community out there. I look forward to 2023 as an enriching year of Great Simplification/Frankly podcasts.

Nate - You asked for suggestions. I suggest you get a speaker on who is doing research on landraces. I have been working on crop landraces for 27 years and it is our best hope for new crop varieties to adapt to climate change. There are livestock landraces too, but crop landraces are more amenable to home gardeners. I explain all this in my two books, but it is a growing field. (Pun intended.)
