Chapter 1: What makes mangroves nature's best tree?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. I'm Bailey Taylor, and this is It Girl. This podcast is all about going deeper with the women-shaping culture right now. Yes, we will talk about the style and the success, but we are also talking about the pressure, the expectations, and the real work behind it all.
As a woman in the industry, you're always underestimated, so you have to work extra hard in a way that doesn't compromise who you are and your integrity. You know, I like to say I was kind of like a silent ninja.
Listen to It Girl with Bailey Taylor on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
In 2023, Bachelor star Clayton Eckerd was accused of fathering twins, but the pregnancy appeared to be a hoax. You doctored this particular test twice, Ms. Owens, correct? I doctored the test once. It took an army of internet detectives to uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing.
Greg Gillespie and Michael Marangini.
My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trapped.
Laura, Scottsdale Police.
As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences. Listen to Love Trapped podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, it's Jill Winterstein, host of the Spirit Daughter podcast, where we talk about astrology, natal charts, and how to step into your most vibrant life. And today I'm talking with my dear friend, Krista Williams.
It can change you in the best way possible. Dance with the change, dance with the breakdowns. The embodiment of Pisces intuition with Capricorn power moves. So I'm like delusionally proud of my chart. Listen to the Spirit Daughter podcast starting on February 24th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Chapter 2: How do mangroves adapt to salty environments?
Yeah.
That's right. Those are the ones with the little nubby, they look like sticks almost, sticking out of the water. They filter it out and they secrete it on the leaves. So that means if you see a black mangrove and you see some, you know, kind of chalky white stuff on the leaf, that is salt. Like go, I don't know if I should say go lick it because I don't know if that's dangerous at all.
But it's salty. Just trust me.
It tastes like salt and DDT.
Gosh.
Red mangroves, they're non-secretors. So they actually just don't allow salt to be taken up by their roots. Now that's easier said than done because their roots are planted in the water, right? So there's water, they're taking up water from the ocean, from salt water. And what they do is they have cell walls that actually act through reverse osmosis.
It lets water through, but it doesn't let solids through. which is quite a trick. I mean, that's something that humans have only recently figured out how to do. Mangroves have been doing it for who knows how many hundreds of thousands or millions of years. But they do it in part because they have this hydrophobic lipophilic material called suberin that really serves them well.
That's right. It allows them to get rid of more than 90% of the salts in the water, which also means, which I didn't really think about until just now, that they can literally tolerate, I guess, about 10% salt content.
Yeah, I saw 90% to 95%, but yeah, that's still a lot of salt for a plant.

Chapter 3: What are the different species of mangroves?
Yeah.
It is. That's devastating.
Like it's biblical, you know?
Yeah. They did some studies too with the tsunami in the Indian Ocean in 2004. And they found that the mangroves there were about 100 meters deep and they ā at least helped reduce those waves between 5% and 30%. So that's a big deal. Six feet of storm surge up to 30% of wave height in the initial rush in from the ocean is you're saving a lot of lives in that case.
Yeah. And, I mean, you saw how bad the Indian Ocean tsunami was, too. It just makes you wonder, like, how much worse it could have been without mangroves. So I say we take our second break, and we come back and talk about carbon sequestration.
That's right, a.k.a. superpower number two.
Hey, girl.
I'm Bailey Taylor, and this is It Girl. You may know me from my It Girl series I've done on the streets of New York over the years. Well, I've got good news. I am bringing those interviews and many more to this podcast. Yes, we will talk about the style and the success, but we are also talking about the pressure, the expectations, and the real work with the women shaping culture right now.
As a woman in the industry, you're always underestimated. So you have to work extra hard and you have to push the narrative in a way that doesn't compromise who you are and your integrity. You know, I like to say I was kind of like a silent ninja.

Chapter 4: How do mangroves protect coastlines from storms?
Yeah. Anytime it requires any additional thought or effort, the management fee just automatically goes up.
I had to click on three extra things.
Right. I had to find out what these blue bonds were. That's my impression of a mutual fund manager.
Yeah. Financial advisor. If that's your financial advisor, you're going to the wrong person.
I meet him at Burger King every couple of weeks. In the back.
Yeah. Where else did you meet?
You got anything else? Nothing else. Up with mangroves. Up with mangroves. And since we both said up with mangroves, everybody, that means it's time for listener mail.
This is a thank you from a Satanist. We had a great podcast. We must have put this on a select recently, I guess. Yeah, like two weeks ago. Okay. Hey, guys. Discovered your podcast in 2011. Have been hooked ever since. Your informative, banter-filled episodes remained a welcome constant in my life throughout college, adult years, and now parenthood.
It's helping me stay sane during sleepless nights with my newborns. When I saw the episode on Satanism, I guess I hadn't listened to it previously, I was simultaneously excited and nervous. I would hope you'd give it the usual Josh and Chuck treatment, and I was not disappointed. Over the years, I've been given a lot of grief being a Satanist.
