I just discovered this podcast a couple of weeks ago, and am really impressed with the quality of the content. I appreciate the deep coverage into each park that you visit. Thanks!
Started listening to this podcast because a friend recommended it to me, informative and fun! Much love from So-Cal!
Wow. Was gearing up for some summer travel and stumbled across this podcast! What a find! Joey is a wonderful host who lets his guests speak without interruption and I so appreciate that. I truly think these shows with our Park Rangers will and can transform peoples experiences at our park. Grateful for the work that is being done on this!
Started listening to the Zion episodes to prep for an upcoming trip and loved how much actual info about the natural beauty of the park these episodes dug into! As someone who has helped do research for Acadia National Park in the past, hearing about the dark sky info, animals, ecosystems, and plants made me even more excited to keep exploring - HIGHLY recommend listening!!
Big fan of Safe Travels! I love national parks, but I don’t necessarily spend a lot of time in the visitors centers when I’m at a park. Safe Travels provides so much information and an insight into each park it’s covered. Can’t wait to see more and more parks build out this podcast.

A conversations-focused show that goes beyond travel tips to explore the science, history, wildlife, and conservation of national parks and wild places. Across episodes, the host talks with park rangers, scientists, curators, archaeologists, and conservationists to unpack geology, paleontology, biodiversity, cultural heritage, and public lands policy, often linking on-site experiences with broader environmental issues. A standout trait is the breadth of expert voices—from field biologists to space-science researchers using parks as analog environments—delivering accessible, deeply informed storytelling that educates and inspires action for public lands stewardship.
