#84 | From Dream Trip to Reality: Exploring the Pan-American Highway with Kayla Fratt Jul 07, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, we’re sitting down with Kayla Fratt, a long-time friend of the show and the featured guest in Episode 28. Kayla began planning her trip along the Pan-American Highway in 2016 and has worked diligently since then to make the adventure happen. We connected in the middle of her trip outside of Banff National Park in Canada.

Kayla and I chat about so many fantastic topics like how she structured her business to make passive income while she’s abroad, how she’s managing to balance her work commitments with travel and lack of wifi connection, why she chose the Pan-American Highway for her epic adventure, and resources for anyone that might want to plan their own multi-month expedition.

#81 | Cougars: The Shadows of Yellowstone with Jack Rabe Jun 16, 2022

Show notes

Today, we’re sitting down with wildlife biologist and Yellowstone predator expert, Jack Rabe. Jack grew up in northern Ohio hunting and fishing on Lake Erie with his father. When it came time to pick a major, Jack decided to study wildlife sciences at The Ohio State University. Upon graduation day, he received a phone call asking if he could drive 26 hours across the country to join the Yellowstone Wolf Project. Without hesitation, he said yes, grabbed his degree, and headed west. Jack has been working on Yellowstone’s Wolf and Cougar Projects since 2017 and is now a PhD student at the University of Minnesota studying the impact each major carnivore has on the area’s infamous elk population.

#78 | May’s Sample Collection: Pygmy Sloths, Antarctica, Mexico’s Whales, and the Creation of Rewildology May 31, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, I’m trying something new! I listen to a lot of podcasts (shocker, right?) and recently I heard a fantastic monthly recap episode on The Tim Ferriss Show. I absolutely loved the idea and decided to bring you all a similar style episode with samples of each of the month’s interviews. That way if you were on the fence about listening to an episode, then you can hear a taster here and decide if you want to listen to the whole thing.

Since this is brand new out of the ethers, please let me know what you think of these Sample Collections! Reach out on Instagram or Facebook, @ Rewildology, or email me at hello@rewildology.com.

Episode Recaps:
Ep. 74 | Conserving the World’s Pygmy Three-Toed Sloths with Diorene Smith, DVM
Ep. 75 | Using Science & Tourism to Uncover the Mysteries of Antarctica with Allison Cusick
Ep. 76 | See A Need, Fill A Need: Protecting Mexico’s Whales & Empowering Local Communities with Katherina Audley

#77 | Bonus Episode: Why Does Rewildology Exist? Stotra’s Interview of Brooke for Macalester College May 26, 2022

Show notes

It’s been a hot second since I’ve released a bonus episode for you all, and I thought now was a great to time share a special interview that I did with Episode 48 guest, Stotra Chakrabarti, PhD for his conservation class at Macalester College. Stotra loved my unconventional approach to conservation and invited me to speak about why I went to such lengths to create a podcast from scratch. He asked me several questions about my story, the journey that led to launching Rewildology, and advice for anyone else considering going outside of the confines of academia, or their current bubble, to pave their own path in this field.

#76 | See A Need, Fill A Need: Protecting Mexico’s Whales & Empowering Local Communities with Katherina Audley May 19, 2022

Show notes

In today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Katherina Audley, founder of the Whales of Guererro project. Born in Alaska, Katherina grew up all over the United States following her father as he fixed the nation’s railroad system. When it came time to go to university, she first thought she was going to become a classical flutist but switched her major to Ancient Religion. After school, she spent the following three years traveling all over Greece and Europe having the time of her life. When she returned to California in 1997, she landed a job at the Exploratorium, an immersive science museum where she learned to write articles and hang around some of the best science educators in the industry. Five years into the job, she took a sabbatical to Mexico and completely fell in the love with a little fishing village called Barra de Potosí. She returned year after year, becoming a part of the community, and noticed that their livelihood was dwindling as less and less fish were caught by the fishermen. See a need, fill a need, as the old saying goes. She had a pure love of whales by this point and followed whale researchers around the world writing about their work. So, one day, she had the idea of starting a community-driven, sustainable whale tourism and research project – and the rest is history.
