The Cranky Arborist vs. The Lorax

He’s back — and somehow even crankier.

Brian and Lauren are joined again by John Palmer, ISA Board Certified Master Arborist (aka The Cranky Arborist), for another round of laughs, strong opinions, and actually helpful yard advice.

This time, John goes head-to-head with “The Lorax” energy as they talk about what you should (and shouldn’t) be doing in your yard, with your trees, and in your landscaping right now. Somewhere between serious advice and chaos, you’ll also hear about John’s growing popularity on TikTok, his expanding platform on Rumble, and yes… the fact that he’s writing a book — and somehow Brian and Lauren made it in.

Topics include when to start working on your yard, what to touch (and not touch), and the age-old question: should you trim your hydrangeas… even the “tinky winky” ones?
