Hi!!!!! Please come out with another season! I have listened to each episode so many times! Thanks bye!
This podcast is eye opening. I never realized that plant poaching where people have lost their lives over. Definitely worth a listen even if it turns out to be a single season.
Well produced, engaging and informative.
I am binging this podcast. So sad to see the last episode was recorded almost a year ago. I hope this podcast hasn’t gone the way of many of its flora subjects. Thank you SRO for bringing this important subject to light.
This is an amazing podcast. You get the best of both worlds on plants and crime. What a combo?! I binge listened to all Episodes. It is educational and raises awareness. I can’t wait for more! Thank you.
