Summary

Happy 2025! Let’s start with a tree so out of time and place that it’s suffering the most endangered situation of any conifer in the world. Then, we play a game that teaches you how to avoid non-tree conversations. Welcome to Season 8.

Completely Arbortrary is produced and hosted by Casey Clapp and Alex Crowson
