National Parks, first season

“I had been actively looking for podcasts on National Parks and couldn’t find one. My oldest kid is in 4th grade with an “Every Kid Outdoors” pass and is now hooked on earning Junior Ranger badges. Drives to NPS sites (and they are mostly Historical or Battlefield sites on the East Coast) are the perfect time to educate my kids and myself about where we’re heading.
Other reviewers complained about how podcaster is an outdoors newbie. You know what? Plenty of people are! Totally relatable when she shares what went wrong.
There are some other reviewers that want their history totally whitewashed. I WANT to learn about the indigenous people who called these parks home long before white people crashed the party. I also want more black & brown folks to discover the joy of camping/Scouts/the great outdoors.
Complaints about cursing…I haven’t noticed it yet. But there’s plenty of cursing in PG rated John Hughes movies that I had completely forgotten about (Uncle Buck, Home Alone, Ferris Buller’s Day Off). So you know what? Pause the podcast or movie and remind your kids that it’s a nuanced part of language they themselves are not allowed to use until they’re also adults.
She’s moved on to cities in the 2nd season. I really hope she’ll return to National Parks. There’s over 460 sites managed by NPS.
Thanks for reading. :)”

“I love REI and I have trusted the brand for 25 years. I worked my way through graduate school as a REI employee in Berkeley. With that said, this podcast is a weird deviation from the REI brand I have known. This podcast is poorly edited with an inexperienced host, emphasized non-nature related...”Read full review »

“Very vulgar language. Not appropriate; why REI and Subaru want to be associated with this is beyond me.”
