  • So fun!

    I love this podcast! What a cool look behind the scenes of an amazing zoo. The only feedback I have is PLEASE try to figure out the sound mixing/microphone situation. Often it is hard to hear the guests so I have to turn the volume up, but then the laughing that follows about blows my ears out.
