- The best podcast I’ve found in 10 years
A close friend told me about this podcast and I am incredibly grateful that he did. I am learning so many amazing facts about animals and learning how to deal with wildlife encounters for predators that live in my area and all around the world. The guys are funny and have a great rapport with each other. Wes and Mike really know a lot and Jeff cracks me up so many times per episode. I love this podcast!

Really don’t mean to be rude but your preamble is fluff and seriously not that interesting. Get to the stories!

I wanted it to be good. The concept is great. The dumb banter between the hosts was awful but I overlooked it. Then I heard the episode about the crocodile attack and what the man did with his puppy and I made a hard U Turn straight outta this podcast.
Apple Podcasts1SuzluvUnited Statesa month ago - Endearing hosts, excellent content.
My sister played some episodes for me on our way to visit Glacier last week. Obviously she started with Night of the Grizzlies and I've been hooked since. Much like when I'm listening to a good audiobook, I can't step away and am always looking for opportunities to listen. I am blowing through episodes and can't decide which host is my favorite. Mike is hilariously unimpressed, Jeff is adorable, and Wes is so sweet. Their banter is charming and provides much needed comic relief for the heavier e... more
Apple Podcasts5LeighaLovelyyyUnited Statesa month ago - Best Educational/ Humourous Podcast Ever
I don’t know how I didn’t know about this podcast sooner but I’m thrilled to be a loyal listener/patron now. I’ve only been listening for about a month but this is hands down my third favorite podcast of all time. I love the jokes and natural camaraderie between these three fine gentlemen. Jeff is my favorite. I know a lot about animals and it’s hard to find facts about them that I haven’t heard before. However this podcast has me learning new information almost every episode. It truly is a gem ... more
