Episode of the day: "Galapagos"

"Galapagos"

Podcast: Radiolab


This one is from the archives. I've listened to it when it first aired and then again... and again. Would love to go to the Galapagos, therefore any opportunity to know more about the place is welcomed. This is the best documentary on the Galapagos I have ever watched/listened to. But this episode is more than just a documentary, it is yet another Man vs Nature saga.

"The strange story of a small group of islands that raise a big question: is it inevitable that even our most sacred natural landscapes will eventually get swallowed up by humans? And just how far are we willing to go to stop that from happening? The Galapagos archipelago - the place that inspired Darwin’s theory of evolution and natural selection. 179 years later, the Galapagos are undergoing rapid changes."
