  • Omg

    This is terrible, over produced and under informed. Seems like an agenda more than a show.

  • Would be better without political undertones

    Please stick to the science and leave the leftist politics out of it. Host does a good job, but every episode seems to end with some agenda-driven conclusion.

  • Walt Whitman would be proud

    Outside/In is the kind of show that makes me think of that Walt Whitman line Ted Lasso quotes: “Be curious, not judgmental.” Nate Hegyi brings that spirit to every episode. curious, open-hearted, and genuinely fun. Whether it’s dog sleds, climate change, or something quirky like coyote pee, the stories always make me see the natural world in a new way.
