The Podcast for nature nuts from wildlife cameraman Jack Perks. Jack interviews presenters, artists, scientists and conservationists giving a light hearted look into their specialisms, stories and backgrounds seeing what drives people to become so utterly fascinated by the natural world.
The podcast dedicated to interviewing dreamers, pioneers, visionaries, and people who challenge the status quo. We will be delving into their story, their dreams, and ultimately their vision for the future.
What Should I Read Next? is the show for every reader who has ever finished a book and faced the problem of not knowing what to read next. Each week, Anne Bogel, of the blog Modern Mrs Darcy, interviews a reader about the books they love, the books they hate, and the books they're reading now. Then, she makes recommendations about what to read next. The real purpose of the show is to help YOU find your next read.
