Customer Reviews
Really good podcast
One of my favorite podcasts to listen to can’t wait for when new episodes come out
Question
Love the pod. Question though, why not include the sound of the booming sand during episode 4? I may have missed it but it seems like an easy thing to add. I’ve never heard it before and had to go look up a national park service video to hear. Weird sound!
Engaging listen
I found the first couple episodes very interesting. This podcast is great to listen to while remaining engaged rather than just having it on in the background.
Update: I really liked episode three’s more conversational style. I’d love to hear more like it in the future
