Reviews From Listeners

Will miss your fantastic show so much! But, thank you very, very, very much for giving us such awesome episodes for so many years! Hope you get a great diploma and find a great position in that field! Good luck!

Thank you We all appreciate the trip we have been on together because of your selfless sacrifices. It’s a trip I will always have fond memories of, that’s honest

This podcast has been my favorite over the past few years. I could always count on learning and feeling better after an episode. Thank you for all of your hard work Stef. We will miss you, but we are grateful for all the episodes you have done and are leaving behind.

I'll miss you but thank you for everything you have taught me and your listeners, Stef. 😊

I’ve been listening for years. Absolutely love his voice and makes relaxing into sleep so easy :)

Our whole family loves this podcast! Our 9 yr old requests Stef every night for bedtime. If you’re having trouble sleeping, just follow the exertions of “being jello”. So much fun to listen to and informative!

if you’re new to the show, please never forget the fact that the host is doing all the work ON HIS OWN, and mostly FOR FREE, excluding a small community of patreon supporters who recognize he deserves to be compensated for the work this show requires. and to everyone who left a bad review during the brief period he implemented ads, go ahead and consider yourself a theif. he deserves to be paid for his work but you think you’re so entitled that you should be allowed to consume it all for free? meanwhile his patreon was readily available as an alternative for only $1 a month. some patreon creators post sponsored content anyway, but stef was offering us a completely ad-free option!!! and you still refused to support the show at the expense of stef. i’m very sorry he has some ridiculous listeners out there, but he remained kind and receptive through it all. i’m upgrading my tier on patreon for sure

This is my go-to nighttime podcast. Both super interesting, and super relaxing. The host’s voice is THE most soothing thing you’ll hear today!

My two favorite things: Animals and Sleep. Thank you for helping me fall asleep, and for giving me so many animals facts to share with all my friends.

I listen to this every day after working around the clock until midnight. Listening this has made falling asleep so much more relaxing and educational. Keep up the good work.

I’ve been listening to this show for a few years now and have to say it’s my most listened to podcast hands down. The soundtrack for each show is custom fit for the animal of the episode which makes it so much more immersive. The animals facts are well thought out and given casually and seamlessly—you’re not just being read a bullet list. It’s relaxing if you’re going to sleep, picnicking, or winding down, among others things. I recommend it to people in the real world all the time, so I can’t recommend it enough here!! Happy listening.

My mom showed me this because we both struggle with falling asleep, and i’ve listened every night since! I study marine biology, so I especially love the marine life episodes

My absolute favorite podcast!!! It helps me wind down and sleep. My favorite episode is the Vaquita :)

Lincoln and I (mom) give 5/5 stars. Lincoln is 8 and looks forward to every new episode. He loves learning all the new animal facts and I love they help him relax and unwind for the night. Thank you so much for this podcast!

This show is so wonderful. Stef has covered so many animals. Each show is so well researched. Stef’s voice is perfectly chill. We always fall asleep while listening. (And my kid has had several dreams about jello because of the relaxing meditation at the beginning!)

This is my favorite podcast. I can't stop listening! It is funny, informative and extremely relaxing. Sometimes I never get to the end and will have to listen again and again to finally finish an episode. Been listening for years now and love every episode, all the way back to the beginning shows! Thanks!

I absolutely love this podcast!! I’m a freshman college student and I’m majoring in zoology!!! Even though it’s super stressful I know every night I can lay down and listen to an animal who i hope to meet in the future. His voice is so slow and calming which sends me straight to sleep (note: so calm I fell asleep studying) I usually even slow it down to .75 speed and it’s even better!!! The dad jokes make me giggle every time even though sometimes they are painful. I love that this podcast aligns with my passion and I look forward to every new episode. I do wish the episodes were a little bit longer but honestly it doesn’t matter too much because I’m usually asleep within the first 10 minutes!

My daughter listens to this show almost everyday. It helps her to fall asleep and she is always telling me the interesting things she learns about the animals.

Great job as always! Your voice is calming and your Animal Facts are always enlightening. ~Theresa

You have helped me sleep for years thank you sooooooo much :D

I love this podcast so much, and it helps me fall asleep when I’m stressed, or sick. I care very much about animals and the environment, and I am so happy to know that others do too! I love your work, and I hope that you continue, and are supported.❤️🦊

This is an outstanding podcast. I would recommend anyone with trouble falling asleep to listen to this. Incase you haven't already done an episode on the pink fairy penguin, I would love to listen.

I do not listen to podcasts regularly, but my friend told me about you for listening to before bed. I play meditations from Peleton for my daughter who just turned 5 and started adding your podcast into the mix. We go through all the animals and she chooses one. Then we listen. She passed out immediately and then I get to listen. I love telling people about your amazing voice and recommending your show. Thank you, keep them coming!

This show is really good, I like to listen to it when I get ready for bed I just wish the episodes were a tad bit longer, but I understand that can sometimes be out of Steph’s control due to the lack of information or specific animals overall amazing and my favorite podcast. I learned a lot too! 6.77/6
