This is a black and white image. The lower two thirds of a person can be seen peaking their upper third into a giant tree trunk's crevice. The tree is about 40 feet across and only the lowest section of the tree can fit in the picture. The giant tree is surrounded by smaller deciduous trees. A sign at the tree says 'Largest Tree At Muir Woods' with elevation, height and age information.

Episode 2023-38: Birocratic & G Mills, Peter Bark, Lifeformed and more

September 18, 2023 Podcast
There is a tall green cactus in the foreground that loosely resembles a set of organ pipes, with some brown, yellow and green underbrush. The landscape is a desert, with a tall, quickly rising mountain in the not-too-far background. There is little to no vegetation on the mountain. The sky is blue with two white, fluffy clouds.
