“This is such a wonderful program. I love listening to it connecting us to the sounds and facts of nature with the lovely voice and expertise of Anne Jones. Who doesn’t it need to be more connected to nature when all we hear about on the radio is about the pandemic. Thank you for so much delight.”

“Most of the podcasts are quite good.
What I can’t stand however is Ann Jones habit of ‘dumbing down’ the science and her corny ‘playschool’ style.
I really enjoyed the recent episode about zoos and their role in the conservation of threatened species. Ann showed that she can make a very good and...”Read full review »

“I’ve loved listening to Off Track for several years now, it’s like my podcast ‘happy place’!
More recently I can’t get enough of the new ‘Nature Track’ soundscapes, I use them as a relaxing background sound while I work, and also for winding down at night. Highly recommend! 🐸🍃☀️🐝🌻🦆”
