Joe Gulotti has invited me onto his The Talking Greenkeeper show for a year-end episode for a few years now. This year he called it “The Micah Woods Annual Holiday Special.

Here are three items that cover the topic of surface hardness, or the firmness of turfgrass surfaces, from all kinds of angles. Richard Forsyth is the director of courses at Royal Melbourne Golf Club.

Joe Gulotti’s The Talking Greenkeeper podcast is popular all over the world. When I travel, I often meet people who tell me how much they enjoy listening to his show, and some who tell me they first heard of me, or of MLSN, by listening to the show.

This topic—carbon in turfgrass soils—was the subject of a Frankly Speaking podcast episode. One of the topics host Frank Rossi spoke about with guests Drs. Claire Phillips and Alec Kowalewski was the nitrogen mineralized from soil organic matter.

If you haven’t listened to Joe Gulotti’s The Talking Greenkeeper yet, I recommend starting with Episode 1 from Season 5, with Frank Rossi as the guest. I’ve been wanting to listen to that conversation for a few years.

In autumn of 2021 I started The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods, a show where I talk about turfgrass topics that I’ve found interesting enough to write about. ATC Doublecut podcast website ATC Doublecut video playlist It’s been 9 months and 50 episodes now.

The ATC Doublecut podcast has listeners from more than 50 countries around the world. I checked the stats for episode downloads for the past 136 days, from April 1 through August 15, 2022.

In a recent episode of the Pullin’ Weeds podcast, I answered a bevy of hard-hitting questions from host Tim Kreger: What’s my favorite grass? Can MLSN be applied to automobile maintenance?

Two shows make their debut today. One is The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods, in which I discuss topics from the blog. Giving those topics a doublecut, so to speak, by first writing about them and then discussing some of the background and related information for that topic.

Joe Gulotti, host of the acclaimed Talking Greenkeeper podcast, called me to talk about aeration. We talked about that, discussed the OM246 method for measuring the exact effect of cultivation and topdressing, and managed to discuss Thai food, Kawana, soil sample lab prep, and why Joe is sleeping in the studio.
