Soil isn’t just the ground we walk on. It’s a living, breathing universe beneath our feet.

In this short episode, Michau Słota, researcher and science communicator, reveals why soil microbiomes are central to everything from food production to human health. These microscopic ecosystems don’t just grow our plants. They connect to our gut, immune system, and even global climate resilience.

Michau challenges the outdated idea of “good” versus “bad” microbes and shows why balance, not sterility, is key to both soil and human health. And if you still think microbes are gross, you might be living on the wrong planet.

In just 10 minutes, we dig into the hidden world beneath our feet and explore why it matters more than ever.
