The Arctic and the Antarctic are privileged locations for observers interested in understanding how our world is shaped by the forces of nature and the workings of history. These areas have inspired countless humans to undertake epic expeditions of discovery and have witnessed both great triumphs and miserable defeats. As a planetary litmus paper it is at the poles we can detect the effects of nat... more

Science, environment, geopolitics, history. A diverse podcast with interesting presenters and always something new to learn. Responsive hosts - suggest them a topic!
This podcast is absolutely brilliant; so much insight and information into everything about the polar regions - I love it!
We have been looking a long time for podcasts to learn more about antarcic and arctic regions. Finally we found Curiously Polar! The hosts are engaging, educational, and funny. They have good chemistry in their conversations. They fit a lot of information into short episodes. It's educational but also it is conversational in a laid back style.
Great podcast - keep up the good work :)
Hey, if you love to learn about the Arctic, or about climate, or weather, or ocean currents, or drinks that are served in a Russian coal miners' Pub in Barentsburg on Spitsbergen-- here it is!! If you love curious German photographers, or Italian ship captain/naturalists who speak English with a Norwegian accent-- this is it!! I am now binge listening for the second time, and have already planned my next trip to Svalbard, up to 80 degrees North latitude. If you grew up reading and dreaming of ... more
Love it!
Mario is a true mine of information about wildlife and the environment in the polar regions.
In the same way that Chris pursues such high quality on his other podcasts, Curiously Polar is no exception. I had no understanding (or real desire to learn) before I listened to this series, but the excellent content Chris and Mario offer has me hooked. It's a fantastic escape to turn it on and send your mind elsewhere. Great work guys and I hope you get all the support you deserve.
I enjoy all of these episodes as the Arctic is a place that I am definitely considering visiting in the near future. However I am going to Antarctica this December and hope to hear some information about that as well, as that is my immediate need and it seems to be very much geared toward the Arctic.....but very interesting nevertheless.
Leicht verständlicher englischsprachiger Podcast. Meist recht kurzweilig gemacht mit sehr verschiedenen interessanten Themen.
Teilweise etwas recht einfaches Niveau, aber dadurch sehr leicht verständlich und zum "Nebenbeihören" geeignet. Insgesamt empfehlenswert!
Gerne würde ich mal an den Polarkreis reisen! Dieser Podcast bringt mich wöchentlich zumindest im Geiste da hin... ;-)
interesting topics and a nice mix of German English and Italian English :-D Easy to follow all the explanations, even if you are not a native English speaker. Looking forward to listen to the next episodes!
Interessante Themen und auch wenn man nicht perfekt Englisch spricht, kann man den Themen des Deutschen und des Italieners gut folgen. Ich freue mich auf die nächsten Folgen! :-)
These two gentlemen are wonderful to listen to. I never knew there was so much I didn't know about the ant/arctic. Definitely recommend this one if you have a curious mind! I look forward to many more shows from you guys! Great work! Biz zur nächsten Folge!
When you want to chill out in the Summer. It is a pleasure to hear something Cold
