  • Even great for young kids.

    I was on a roadtrip with my little sister who would like to work in some field with animals some day. We couldn't find any that were basically for babies! Then I heard about Olga's podcast and am able to pass the feed onto my sister. She will be very excited. Especially for the Chimpanzee episode.

  • A fresh take on the world of animals

    This is a really interesting podcast about the way that Homo sapiens have displaced billions animals. We’ve got a lot of power, but much of that depends directly on the animals we exploit. I love the friendly and environmentally conscientious tone of this podcast.

  • Have you ever known...?

    I love animals. But i know so little about them. Olga is making their world closer to mine. Make me understand where they come from and what they mean to people. There is so much care put into her episodes - it's just somethng you can't stop listening to. Highly recommended!

  • I am biased

    I have watched Olga throughout the process of creating this podcast. I have seen the idea germinate in her mind, the planning, the learning and the organisation required to ensure that interviewees were available to share their knowledge and experience.

    I have enjoyed the creation of this podcast. I truly hope you enjoy hearing it, and all the episodes to come.
