And finally last week, I was able to chat with Dr. Spencer Nyholm about the interests of his research lab group during a recording of my #MattersMicrobial podcast. I have known Spencer for a VERY long time, and he is such a great human being, fine microscopist, and deep thinker.
So happy that Episode #124 of #MattersMicrobial is available! Dr. Anne Thompson joins the #QualityQuorum to chat about the marine microbial forest & its predators! Please give a look or listen? Grateful for every view! @unipugetsound @asmicrobiology @microbetv.bsky.social

Friday was a great day to record my #MattersMicrobial podcast. I had the best time chatting with Dr. Paul Hoskisson about Streptomyces, antibiotics, and evolution. It will be available in two weeks or so. Remember, I am now recording podcasts every other week. @paulhoskisson.bsky.social
Recently, I have been approaching people about perhaps being on my #MattersMicrobial podcast. A lot of people don't respond at all. So I am at least hoping the requests are seen. I honor their preferences, of course.
Trying to find someone to chat about avian influenza on my #MattersMicrobial podcast. Happy to hear recommendations.
Wow! Wish I could get you to visit my #MattersMicrobial podcast to talk about the "microbial neighborhood"! WONDERFUL work!
During every recording of #MattersMicrobial, I have a #TardiDoc #PodcastPal. #MicrobialEvangelist #MicrobiologyPodcast @asmicrobiology @univpugetsound @microbetv.bsky.social
I had the best time today recording the next episode of #MattersMicrobial with Anne Thompson, discussing the "Invisible Microbial Forest," Prochlorococcus, predation, and nutrient recycling. Dr. Thompson was great!
New episode of the #MattersMicrobial podcast! Episode 123 features Dr. Seema Mattoo, who chats with the #QualityQuorum about how all research roads she took seem to involve Bordetella pertussis. Such a great #MicrobialChat! @unipugetsound @asmicrobiology @microbe.tv

As I move into an uncertain phase of my life, I am grateful to the folks who agreed to be guests on my #MattersMicrobial podcast (microbe.tv/mm), the people who listen or watch, and Vincent Racaniello for the opportunity and support.
New episode of #MattersMicrobial for 2026! This time, Dr. Alaina Weinheimer joins the #QualityQuorum to chat about marine jumbophages and related matters. Please spread the #GoodMicrobialWord? @microbe.tv @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology

Here goes! Time to be #TWiMAdjacent on This Week in Microbiology today, and recording a new episode of #MattersMicrobial tomorrow. So much to do and think about.
Getting ready to record the first #MattersMicrobial session of 2026! @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology @microbe.tv
It's 2026, and time for #MattersMicrobial! Episode #121 showcases Dr. Liz de Ora Ortiz's wonderful description of using "Phollow" to, well, follow bacteriophage-host cell interaction, even in animals! Please spread the #GoodMicrobialWord! @microbetv.bsky.social @asm.org

As I have mentioned before, I had a #MattersMicrobial podcast guest for Friday cancel due to illness. A very kind scientist stepped in with a few days notice. I am very grateful (and yes, health always comes first).
Ouch! My podcast guest for this coming Friday had to cancel due to illness. Since we are recording #MattersMicrobial every other week in 2026, I will see if I can find a last minute replacement. But ouch, probably not. Fingers crossed?
My #MattersMicrobial podcast will continue in 2026, but will be released every other week, in hope of getting more views & listens. I am so very grateful to microbe.tv for the support and belief in this project. So please listen, watch, and spread the #GoodMicrobialWord! #MicrobialCentrism rules!
Just to be superclear, I am DELIGHTED to be a #MicrobialEvangelist on #MicrobeTV with my #MattersMicrobial podcast. But since I don’t have local microbiologists with whom to share my microbial enthusiasms, it is just as much for me! It means so much! Thank you again, @microbetv.bsky.social
New podcast episode of #MattersMicrobial! This time, Dr. Bat Bor tells the #QualityQuorum all about mysterious interactions between bacteria among the oral microbiota. Please spread the #GoodMicrobialWord? @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology @microbe.tv

I send each guest on my #MattersMicrobial podcast a little package of #MicrobialCentrism mementos. Today I received a care package of mementos from the Center for Biofilm Engineering in Bozeman via recent guest Dr Matthew Fields. Very grateful!!! @ASMicrobiology @univpugetsound @microbe.tv
A truly fascinating podcast recording this morning of #MattersMicrobial with the enthusiastic Dr. Liz Ortiz. We see the world in similar ways, so it was a wonderful experience for me. @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology @microbe.tv
A new episode of my #MattersMicrobial podcast! This time, Dr. Julia WIllett joins the #QualityQuorum to discuss microbial dark matter—unknown genes within microbial genomes! Please spread the #GoodMicrobialWord! @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology @microbe.tv

Today was a deeply cool #MattersMicrobial session with Dr. Bat Bor of the ADA Forsyth Institute about microbes attaching to microbes among the oral microbiota...and how that might impact dental health. #OMG #WTM
It's time for a new episode of my #MattersMicrobial podcast! This time, Dr. Matthew Fields joins the #QualityQuorum to discuss the ubiquitous and impactful presence of biofilms on Planet Earth. Or should I call it "Planet Biofilm"? Please spread the #GoodMicrobialWord

I have written to a fair number of fellow #MicrobialEnthusiasts about being on my #MattersMicrobial podcast. Be prepared to be asked again, if you have not been on the 'cast. Also, happy to hear recommendations. January through June! Please spread the word?
Wonderful #MattersMicrobial session with Dr. Julia WIllett about microbial dark matter! I really enjoyed the chat, and learned a lot.
