Wild Minds Podcast

By: Nick Donavon Mike Stoess
  • Summary

  • Faced with a world of increasingly complex legal, industrial, and social systems, it can feel paralyzing to attempt to make any meaningful ecological impact on the world. Hosts Mike Stoess and Nick Donavon break through these monolithic challenges that the world faces, seeking simple, attainable solutions for the average person that focus on backyard issues, rather than global dilemmas. On top of tackling ecological issues, Nick and Mike explore ways to better enjoy the outdoors and take in depth looks at the flora and fauna of the South East U.S. Listeners are invited to join their journey of learning and self improvement as they take steps to get a little closer to the world around us, and maybe even becoming a bit more wild minded.

  • Spotlight: American Paddlefish

    In the third installment of our spotlight series, we take a look at one of the South's strangest fish, the American paddlefish. They're big, they're hungry, and they've got special electric senses.

  • Spotlight: Spotted Salamander
    Sep 9 2022

    In the second spotlight episode we take a look at the elusive spotted salamander. While it may look average (for a salamander), this creature has an exceptionally unique relationship with its environment that makes it unlike anything else.

  • Spotlight: Mason Bees
    Jul 2 2022

    Introducing a new series of the Wild Minds Podcast: Spotlight! As we continue to produce our regular content, we will also be creating shorter, more focused episodes on neat animals, plants, and other parts of nature. Our first Spotlight is on the mighty mason bee; a small and often overlooked insect that is a bigger part of our days than we might realize.
