Endlessly enriching
These podcasts are both precious records of our natural world and meditations. Jim Metzner has transported us over the air waves for years, and now we can relive those moments again and again. Pulse of the Planet ~ what a gift! Thank you.
Reminds me to listen
…to the life around me.
Pulse of the Planet
These are soulful stories that have a warmth and color that helps exercise a healthy imagination. Progressive thinking that most people young and old can enjoy. I have heard people say that if images are the essence of National Geographic then Pulse of the Planet has given sounds of the world a venue to represent. I may need to buy some new reference grade headphones to see how good these moments can sound.
