Really enjoying listening to these
The This is Africa podcasts are some of the very best available. Great guests, proper length and interesting perspectives are shared. I listen to them daily when I walk.
I’m not even a hunter. I just love Africa, its people, landscape, wildlife…and listening to the stories of the bush. Andy has such a great personality, laughs openly and often, making his guests feel comfortable and relaxed. The podcast is not just hunting stories. It often delves into history, conservation, and anti-poaching efforts. I promise you will not only be entertained, you will learn something from every episode. I highly recommend the podcast to hunters and non-hunters alike.
I listen to these amazing podcasts in my car on the way to work. It’s amazing to hear the stories of the bush and everything these amazing ph’s and the teams around them are doing for conservation. Thank you Andy for doing this, each episode makes me relive the bush
These are awesome wild stories! Well trained and professional hunters and guides. A must listen for people planning to come to Africa for a dangerous animal hunt.
