Excellent podcast - and getting better every week
Brilliantly light-hearted and irreverential but with deep, balanced coverage and serious intent. Don’t miss this
Brilliant
Absolutely love Jack’s podcast, from the variety of subjects and guests to his perfectly dry sense of humour. Easily my favourite nature-based podcast, and probably my favourite podcast overall!
I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants a light-hearted but informative nature podcast.
Highly recommended
Really enjoy Jack’s dry sense of humour, he’s a great host and interviewer. Interesting guests from all kinds of nature loving back grounds. If you’re a wildlife enthusiast or only slightly interested you will enjoy regardless. A must listen!
