I really love Big Cat Conversations. It's a fascinating subject. Rick is very knowledgeable and I love his style of interviewing, just letting his guests talk and not interrupting them.
Description
The People's Podcast on Big Cat encounters in Britain. In each episode Rick Minter discusses big cat sightings with different witnesses, finding out what they saw or sensed, how they felt, and how these cases fit a bigger picture.
