    Episode Ten: The Most Dangerous Game PT 2

    This is Part Two in our Season One finale special! (If you haven’t listened to Part One, go listen to that first!) We pick up where we left off with Jim Corbett returning to the Garhwal region in the spring of 1926 with hopes of securing the man-eater once and for all. Corbett will have to put all of his experience hunting within the jungles of India and Nepal to the test as the leopard continuously finds ways to escape his clutches. Once the story is complete, the A Team will also cover some general information about this elusive spotted cat and answer some pretty important questions such as how do you tell the difference between a leopard and a jaguar? Thank you all so much for your support-we’ll see y’all next season!

    Episode Nine: The Most Dangerous Game PT 1

    Welcome to the season finale! This story and following discussion is a bit of a long one, so these episodes are being split up into two. In part one we travel back in time to 1925. For almost a decade an evil spirit stalked the roads and villages of the Garhwal region of India leaving its residents in constant fear. One man, the well known big game hunter Jim Corbett, took up the task of hunting down this near supernatural being, but it would not be easy. Reading from Corbett’s own account of the hunt, Ambria will detail the trials and tribulations Corbett will face. Join us next week in part two to hear how this tale ends!

    Episode Eight: An Apple A Day Keeps the Cassowary Away

    The cassowary is an odd yet ancient looking animal found within the rainforests of Queensland, Australia. Dubbed “the World’s Most Dangerous Bird”, it has a reputation for being aggressive and deadly to people. In this episode the A Team uses both historic as well as contemporary evidence to investigate that claim and determine once and for all if cassowaries truly deserve their formidable reputation.

    Episode Seven: Suckerpunched

    Daniel and Laura Core were on a photo safari trip in Zambia to commemorate 40 years of marriage when a nearly 15ft bull giraffe made a swing at the couple. Join us as the A team goes into detail about what was supposed to be a celebration of love that turns into a fight for survival. We talk some general information on giraffes, touch on poaching issues very briefly, and explain why herbivores like them are more inclined to throw down with you than carnivores.

    Episode Six: Double Jeopardy

    The A Team takes a deep dive (pun intended) into the story of Shannon Ainsley who in the summer of 2000 came face to face with not one but TWO of the ocean’s top predators at once….then it happened again almost three decades later.  Oh and they’re both caught on video. Sometimes God just really wants you to get attacked by oceanic megafauna. Join us this week as we talk about great white sharks, how to avoid fatal encounters, and finally, everything about orcas. We will not discuss orcas ever again. Ever.

    Episode Five: Too Close to Home

    On August 6th, 2009 the phone call everyone in the small community outside of Ouray, Colorado feared, had finally come. In this episode the A Team discuss the unfortunate mauling of Donna Munson which would lead to the 2nd fatal black bear attack in the centennial state. Ambria also talks about the dangers of wildlife feeding. Just don’t do it. Please.

    Episode Four: Feast for the Beast

    Being attacked by a wild animal is the last thing on anyone’s mind while they enjoy a trip to the zoo. In August of 2000, however, Jan Gold would find herself in that exact situation when she came face to face with Taiga, a 2 year old amur tiger…who was now loose. Join the A Team this episode as we discuss the attack at Zoo Boise.  NOTE: We recorded this episode back in 2022 and a lot has changed since then, including the passing of the Big Cat Safety Act.

    Episode Three: Dragged Down Under

    Seeking a restart to their vacation after tragedy strikes, the Von Jordan sisters join up on a backpacking expedition with several other tourists into Australia's Kakadu National Park. 9 tourists will start this trip, but only 8 will return home. In this story the A Team reveals how gross negligence would lead to a day in Australian infamy in the fall of 2002. We also talk about all things croc! Ambria will give some tips to help others hopefully avoid a fatal encounter and explain the biology of these amazing animals.

    Episode Two: Kangaroo Court

    It was a sunny afternoon in October 1996 when Stephen Shorten and his buddy Jason decided to hit the local golf course for a round. Their day of fun was violently interrupted when the 13 year old boys crossed paths with a defensive kangaroo who had its sights set on Stephen. After the story Ambria gives Adonis and Axel a good ol’ roo rundown plus some other interesting encounters with this iconic marsupial!

    Episode One: There Once Was A Boat From Nantucket

    In 1819 the famed ship the Essex set sail for its final voyage from Nantucket to the whaling grounds in the Pacific with first time captain George Pollard, Jr at the helm. On November 20, 1820, the ship was set nearly 1,000 miles from the nearest land when the unthinkable occurred: a massive whale rammed the Essex twice and left its sinking wreck behind. Although 20 men survived the initial attack, only 8 would return home. This incident went on to inspire the climatic scene in the famed novel, Moby Dick! In our first episode Ambria, Axel, and Adonis sit down to talk about this whale of a tale! (This will be the raunchiest episode we ever do I promise) Sources include:  Cyprien Gaulon (b. 1777), Sinking of the Nantucket Whaleship Essex by a Whale on 20 November 1820.
