I started following Rick after discovering the SD Zoo. I’ve followed him on Instagram for a few years now. When this particular podcast started I decided to check it out wondering if it would be of interest to me. Well, I’ve never been involved with zoo keeping in any way but I love this podcast! Rick and his guests share their expertise with animals but they touch on so many things in life. The episode I’m listening to now is about dealing with grief. I’ve learned so much.

I really like that you do the short episodes and longer interview episodes each week. The interviews are always so good. But the short solo episodes are really good too. It’s like having two shows in one. Keep it up, this is really good stuff.
