Inside Out with Tori Solis: A Reversed Episode - Bonsai Time Podcast Ep25

 I. Episode Summary & Links

            Our first episode of 2024 is a collaboration with Tori Solis of Blue Nose Trading. In the first half of our two-part interview, we interviewed Tori to understand her artistic perspective in ceramics and discuss the motivations for her new podcast. That episode is live now as episode 1 of "The Bonsai Pot-cast". Next in this episode, Tori interviewed us about our involvement in bonsai clubs, tips for getting involved, and a smattering of other subjects such as invasive species yamadori.
