Nature Guys is proud to say that this is our 200th episode! Our first episode was released in October of 2016. If you are a long time listener you know that my dear friend Bill was my only co-host until August of 2020. If you are new to the show, you can listen to my tribute to Bill on the episode titled "Our Friend Bill" released on September 1, 2020. Nature Guys has not only survived Bill's loss but thrives thanks to the contributions of many people both on air and off. Special thanks to Gia, Greg and Charles – top notch naturalists who have taken the time from their busy schedules to help me create multiple amazing new shows. On this 200th episode I wanted to play an old Bill and Bob show. I was debating which episode to use when I got an email from Eve Bishop. Eve has a wonderful new four part podcast called Deer Humans. Tune in to hear Eve explain this in her own words followed by the Nature Guys podcast on white tailed deer originally released on October 10, 2017.

Step outside with Nature Guys and let longtime nature lover Bob be your guide to the overlooked wonders just beyond your doorstep. This isn't a lecture from a distant wilderness; it's a friendly, grounded conversation about the squirrels in the park, the weeds pushing through the sidewalk, and the birdsong that forms the soundtrack to your daily walk. Bob believes that paying close attention to this accessible, exciting natural world is a powerful tool-it’s how we find a sense of calm, regain our focus, and cultivate the curiosity needed to care for our local environment. Each episode of this podcast dives into the specifics of a common plant, animal, or natural phenomenon you can likely encounter yourself, blending simple science with genuine enthusiasm. Listening feels like taking a walk with a knowledgeable friend who points out the fascinating stories in the ordinary, helping you build a deeper, more personal connection to the living world around you. The Nature Guys podcast is an invitation to slow down, look closely, and discover that you don't need to travel far to find a sense of wonder and a bit of peace.
