Well as hosts Liam Clifford and Elizabeth Mohler learn, it's because these changes can help us understand how microbes (or the lack thereof) can impact the development in a living thing. As a result, the conversation that ensues seeks to familiarize listeners with all sorts of super cool bugs that influence our daily lives.
