    Moose Attack - Balto, Togo, and the History of the Iditarod
    Sep 23 2024
    Mike is finally allowed to take charge of a main episode as some sort of sick and twisted birthday present, and he decides to cover the true story behind the legendery sled dog serum run of 1925. He then gets into the horrifying account of Bridgett Watkins and her encounter with a moose while training for the Iditarod. Wes does NOT want diptheria, and Jeff is hard to impress.

One of my absolute favorites podcasts

The guys are thorough in their research. They're advocates for all animals and obviously care. They're also hilarious. Even their collabs are top notch listening.

Can’t stop listening!

You guys work so well together, and every single episode gives me at least 1 laugh. The teasing and joking I’d hilarious at times, also super informative. Keep up the awesome job!

Absolutely Brilliant

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this podcast. Wes, Jeff, and Mike are hilarious and I feel like I'm hanging out with my brothers when I'm listening.

They have really interesting information, and they use stories that, while sometimes have tragic ends, as teachable moments.

Animal Knowledge and Giggles

I’ve been following Owlfaceowlface & Bryce on Instagram for a couple of years and just recently started following Wes for his bear quizzes on Instagram. I had no idea Wes had a podcast! Or that it was GREAT! I laugh more listening to Jeff’s commentary than I have with any other podcast in a while. I feel like I’ve finally found my podcast niche! Reminds me of the nerdy Adventure Zone podcast but with expert animal knowledge. I love all of the animal knowledge I now have prepared for any awkward encounters at parties.

Favorite podcast!

I am an aspiring wildlife biologist who's just finished my college degree and working for my states conservation department. This podcast is incredible! I love the true crime aspect of the animal attacks combined with the incredible biology of each animal that manages to shed good light on every animal involved in the encounters. The storytelling is great and all the guys are so funny. Fantastically paced podcast that caters to basically my main interest which is human wildlife conflict :)

One of my favorite podcasts!

I love the content and stories! My favorites, by far, are the bear stories, especially the ones in Montana. I'm born and raised Montanan and love hearing stores from my beloved state!
