About this episode
Today, we are sharing an episode of Going Wild with Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant, the chart-topping and Webby Award-winning podcast from our friends at Nature on PBS. Back for a brand new season, Going Wild features some of the coolest champions of nature – like a former butterfly technician who saved an endangered species while incarcerated, and a marine ecologist who worked as a featured diver in the documentary Enslaved with Samuel L Jackson. Each episode explores what led them to create change within themselves, their community, and the natural world.
In today’s episode, you hear from Nat Geo Explorer-slash-stand-up-comic Ella Al-Shamahi about her research in places where people don’t normally do science like “conflict zones.” Ella’s archeological pursuits are not only informative, but inspiring!
