A fascinating documentary about all the research projects that attempted to teach human Sign Language to animals.
Good production with interesting content
This is a great show for people interested in zoology, psychology, animal behavior, but I suspect that most science enthusiasts would also appreciate it. The topic is interesting; however, I believe that what truly makes the podcast great is the way the information is presented and the performance of the host. I like the music and the fact that it’s to the point. The interview excerpts were another awesome feature, I don’t think the experience would have been the same without them.

Fascinating, informative, great reporting and storytelling, and well-paced, angering at times (humans are very selfish). Loved the host. Binged all episodes in one sitting. One of the best podcasts I’ve listened to in awhile. I hope there’ll be more seasons with different subjects or even follow-ups.
Very interesting and well done.
