If you want a treat for Christmas or a diversion from this bleak season, give a listen to a consummate interviewer, David Oakes as he talks with a varied plethora of artists, conservationists, entomologists, gardeners, ornithologists, a Morris dancer, a bat woman, wildlife photographers and a lady of the bog. Oakes combine humor, his love & knowledge of the natural world with his superb questions to entertain & inform us about our planet and it’s inhabitants. Find out if we should populate the moon & what species we would wish to return from extinction. It is a refreshing podcast that reminds us all that caretaking the earth is a necessity and a mutual obligation. To hear David’s laughter is well worth the listen. I cannot recommend this joyous podcast enough. Go back and listen to all the episodes as you gear up for 2021.

Truly fantastic, and brilliantly varied. Most certainly worth a listen.
