Customer Reviews
I love your podcast
This is Leif. You gave me a shout out in your giant snakehead episode. I love your Arapaima episode
A perfect mix of video games and animals!
I heard about this show on another podcast and oh man am I glad I gave Beyond Blathers a listen! I adore the calm fun chats, it’s the perfect thing for my early morning commute. I never realized how much I’d love learning more about bugs and fish until they started to go into detail about them. The hosts enthusiasm rubs off on you to be honest, and I’m so happy for that! <3 11/10 would recomend.
Entertaining and educational!
I’m honestly shocked that this podcast doesn’t have more reviews- it’s fantastic! I have never played Animal Crossing and was worried that I would miss things in the podcast, but they use it more as a prompt for the species they cover- so both players and non-players of AC can fully enjoy! The hosts are super well spoken, knowledgeable, and have perfect podcasting voices. 11/10
