Hello, Nature is back! In season 1, Misha Euceph traveled across the country to share the unknown stories of America’s National Parks. In season 2, Misha is back on the road in her Subaru Outback Wilderness, and this time she’s exploring nature right outside our front doors in cities across the country – from Los Angeles to Atlanta and Portland to New York City. She’s hitting the trails, camping out at local preserves, and running alongside local changemakers to answer the questions: What makes these outdoor spaces so important? How do we access, protect, and engage with these spaces? And who are the leaders of color helping to get people outside?

Customer Reviews
Love!
Incredible! This podcast was my companion for two days, I listened all the way through. It’s fun and informative, I often teared up from the beauty in the stories.
You are always in nature
Misha has produced a brilliant and insightful collection of stories to remind us that we are nature, and we are always in nature. Her adventures are deeply personal and allow us to share her discovery of our intimate relationship to all things, wild and natural, at the same time that it is an illuminating and insightful history of how this relationship has evolved here in America. As a practicing conservation biologist, I am consistently scouring the podcast world for stories that resonate the human-nature relationship therapy we need right now and I keep coming back to this one. I also send my NYU students here to get a great example of how to tell the story of nature. My hope is that Misha keeps up her travels and takes her stories further afield to other parts of the world.
Entertaining and Educational
I like the first season and loved the second. Wonderful stories I’ve never heard before about and by people of color or other marginalized groups. I found it entertaining and the shows gave me something to think about.
