From the storytelling, sound design to post production, this is the epitome of nature documentary in audio format. Every episode is like a magic box that delights, moves and transfixed me every time I open it.
Apple Podcasts5CrystalashUnited Statesa year ago - Part of nature
I cannot describe the disgust I feel when people try to put humans outside of nature. Do you not realize the things you are saying are tantamount to the religious trying to put humans above and outside of the natural world? Everything humans do is just as natural as all the things every other living creature does.
