Wet n Wild: Japanese Giant Salamander

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/12/16

Enormous predatory amphibians lurking in mountain streams and rivers - a thing of the past? Well, yes - the planet was once dominated by these early arrivals onto land. But here, today, now, in the present moment, as we hold space for time and we hold time for space, we must acknowledge the truth: giant amphibians still exist. They're out there. They're skilled nocturnal predators. They're slimy and huge. And they're out there!!! In this episode I head to western Japan to meet Professor Mizuk...

Wet n Wild: Orcas Hunting Great Whites

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/12/01

Two South African orcas, named Port and Starboard, have become infamous shark-hunters. It has been widely reported that the pair are responsible for the declining great white populations in the world's cage-diving capital. But is it true? Should the blame be placed on the killer whales, or is there a bigger picture? In this episode, I travel to the coastal waters of South Africa to speak with Lacey Williams, Head Field Specialist of Oceans Research South Africa. Lacey performed a necropsy (an...

Wet n Wild: The Loch Ness Monster (isn't real)

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/11/03

Rumour has it, there is a giant prehistoric reptile inhabiting Britain's largest lake/loch by volume. Well, I'm not one for rumours, fairytales, gossips and besmirchments - unless I've made them up myself about my enemies. In this episode, I head to Scotland to confirm what I already know - that the Loch Ness Monster does exist, but only in our minds. This conspiracy is a surprising jumping-off point for the discussion of science, from techniques like environmental DNA, to the application of ...

Wet n Wild: Fish Evolution on Steroids

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/10/20

Lake Victoria, East Africa, was dry 14,000 years ago - and yet, it is home to about 500 species of cichlid fish. It's believed that this incredible diversity of species arose from a single ancestor, which completely flips the script given we often imagine evolution taking place over millions of years. In this episode, I head to the calm shores of Lake Malawi to confront my former practical project supervisor, Dr Martin Genner of Bristol University. After I interrogate him about his unw...

Wet n Wild: Great Barrier Reef

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/10/06

In this episode, I head to one of the most biodiverse places on the planet: the Great Barrier Reef. While this reef is almost completely unknown in comparison to more famous reefs like the Houtman Abrolhos island reef and Capricorn and Bunker Group reefs - the Great Barrier Reef boasts a truly spectacular amount and variety of wildlife. At the GBR I meet Tanya Murphy, of the Australian Marine Conservation Society, 'Fight for Our Reef' advocate and host of the Word on the Reef podcast. W...

Wet n Wild: Exploding Eels Under Melbourne

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/09/21

Exploding eels under Melbourne!! Yes, you heard that damn straight, missy. For thousands of years, the Traditional Custodians of the land have understood much about the lives of eels. In Western academia, these creatures long remained elusive. In this episode, I take a trip in a rubber ring down the Yarra River, known first as the Birr-arrung, which flows through the heart of Melbourne. Upon my arrival at Flinders Street Station, I meet urban geographer Dr Alex Faustino. He teache...

Wet n Wild: Life Beyond Earth

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/09/04

In this episode, I depart from planet Earth alone in search of water and extraterrestrial life, donning a Goldilocks outfit and my astrobiology hat to help facilitate the discussion of biosignatures. On the way I encounter exoplanets, robots and Katy Perry. Two out of those three things I'm excited about.

Wet n Wild: Sewer Alligators

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/07/21

In this episode, I'm where I belong: crawling through the sewers like a rat. Join me as I head to Florida to meet ecologist Alan Ivory, to discuss life underneath our cities; urbanisation; and whether or not there's any truth behind the legends of alligators living in the pipes. You can find Alan at http://alanivory.org/ And explore his research further - Urban Naturalist (sewer wildlife diversity)- https://www.eaglehill.us/URNAonline2/access-pages/075-Ivory-accesspage.shtml...

Wet n Wild: The Deep Sea

Nature Disturbed ·

2025/06/24

Welcome to the very first episode of the Nature Disturbed Podcast; a podcast where we look at the good, the offensive and the confusing parts of the animal kingdom and beyond. In this episode, I swim to the bottom of the Mariana Trench and have an awkward interaction with James Cameron, observing how the environment changes as I make the 11km journey down. When I resurface I have the privilege of talking to marine biologist Lucy Harris, of Southampton University, about artificial reef f...
