  • Great feel good podcast

    I stumbled on this today and have been binge listening. Being Outdoors is my therapy and I am stuck in bed with a bad cold today. This was the most soothing thing I could find. Thank you Carol! I hope you have the chance to make many more episodes. I’ll be listening!

  • My Favorite Podcast!!

    I was so sad when this podcast left the air a couple of years ago. Yesterday I was listening to a different podcast and they recommended a story from Humanature. I was like “oh no, they’re back! Yay!” I have a couple of episodes from the old times that I keep download it to listen to them occasionally. Row Row Row Your Boat being one of them and Bigfoot being the other. So happy to have you back on. So happy to have a favorite again. Thank you for reigniting this!
