Guest: Austin Mago – Certified Arborist, Bowyer, Tree Whisperer, Possibly a Druid

Whiskey of the Week: Still Austin Red Corn Bourbon – 100 proof and smoother than your Uncle’s bad decisions

Episode Summary:

Grab a glass and brace your roots—this episode is one for the dendro-spiritual record books. The Bros sit down with Austin Mgo, a certified arborist who doesn't just cut trees… he communes with them. Part chainsaw surgeon, part philosopher-monk, Austin takes us on a journey through dying oaks, resurrected root systems, zombie fungi, prosthetic chainsaw arms, and why some trees just might feel things.

It’s funny, weird, and unexpectedly touching. You’ll laugh. You might cry. You’ll definitely reconsider flipping off your neighbor’s live oak. Also: if you ever wanted to hear the phrase “treeporn.com” explained with sincerity, this is your moment.

Topics Sprouting Up:

• Why clear-cutting makes your soul itch
• The tragic love story of the Treaty Oak and the dumbass who tried to kill it
• Arborist PTSD, chainsaw scars, and why respect is measured in bark
• Tree communication (yes, trees talk—deal with it)
• Elephants grieving humans, cockroach mind control, and fungus that turns ants into zombies
• Prosthetic limbs for arborists: Luke Skywalker meets Paul Bunyan
• Whether or not trees are watching you pee (spoiler: probably not, but we can’t be sure)
