I truly enjoy listening to “Trees A Crowd “ podcast. The host David Oakes has an enchanting, pleasant voice. The contents are educational, informative, just fascinating. I’m learning a lot about nature’s beauty & ways to preserve this magnificent Earth. Very grateful .

Absolutely delightful podcast! The relaxed, conversational style makes it easy and fun to listen to, and I love all the connections David draws between the arts and nature.

I stumbled upon this podcast about trees. With such a delightful voice and I was captivated. I have learned much and hope to learn more. David Oakes has the best voice. (Dreamy and intelligent). I just love his voice and it has drawn me in to the world of trees and the work that The Woodland Trust in England does. I hope people take a listen. He sounds like a professor and is at times humorous. He is a great Ambassador of England. I wish the gift shop had a poster size species of trees. I would love to have such a large picture to frame for my wall in my log cabin in a nature setting. I would love to hear David Oakes speak about British History. I loved him on the Borgias. He is so very intelligent and multitalented. Please keep this podcast.

It’s great how this man from Germany can defend how Britain takes care of her trees. It’s good to have an outside viewpoint to give you greater appreciation for the country you call home. More people should listen to these things.

For my retirement (honestly for the last ten years) I have been payed for 16 acres in Missouri. My goal is to replant a forest and hide there Sherwood Forest style; who as a child didn’t love Robinhood! The podcast has been an amazing resource for facts and folklore to help me choose my trees. Thank you so much for the obvious energy you put into your research. The soothing voice and goofy jokes are pluses as well!

great for listening in about the natural world in podcast format while i'm driving. really interesting interviews with a good range of topics. love the tree series! thank you for keeping me company as i'm on the road.

I've so enjoyed listening to these podcasts recently. I learn something new in each one and love their genuine, conversational style. Thank you so much!

I found this podcast after I saw David Oakes in Victoria and looked him up. I’m so impressed at his interest in and dedication to discussing the natural world. What a variety of experts he interviewed! I learned so much listening to each episode, even the oyster episode which hit close to home as I live in Virginia near the Chesapeake Bay. I was sad to hear the words ‘the final episode in the series’. David, please bring us more Trees a Crowd!

As a California gal who grew up with my nose buried in books taking place in the English countryside, I admit I was predisposed to love this podcast. Informative and quirky all at once, listeners will be charmed by the personal stories shared as much as the creative conservation efforts. A welcome addition to my daily walks. Thank you!

Love listening to this podcast on my quarantine walks. So fun and informative.

“Don’t ever French-kiss a narwhal”...I’m looking forward to more like this. Maybe someone will tell us “Don’t ever chest-bump a silverback”? Please come to the Midwest US and bother us—we won’t regret it, I promise. Great fun. Looking forward to more from Trees A Crowd.

I look forward to each episode and always learn something. But the last two weeks have been extra special. Thank you for talking with Eanna Ni Lamhna. I would love to read a transcript, so I don’t miss any of her wisdom and sass.

Each episode makes me want to go live among wild creatures. While I can't quite do that right now, this vicarious adventuring will have to do. It's earnest, humorous and absolutely charming.

I loved this live episode. I learn so much from every episode but hearing it live,( while it was not actually live for me) was extra special because I felt as though I was right there in the bookstore with the audience. It was also wonderful to hear the theme song played live and David’s humor and Cat’s stories of working with eagles and growing up with wildlife were so interesting and enjoyable. This is one of my favorite podcasts to listen to because it’s so down to earth and easily understandable for laypeople who love wildlife but don’t necessarily have a degree in studying it. Bravo David for doing this podcast! I admire you as an excellent interviewer and as an actor as well.👍💕

Love it.

I stumbled upon this podcast over the fall, and quickly fell in love. Each episode is a fantastic escape to beautiful places around Britain. The show gives me some hope and inspiration.

This podcast is a bit like eves dropping on informed conversations about our natural world. From artist to scientist, these casual and intimate interviews remind us to be curious and appreciative of the world around us.

Can’t get enough of this wonderful podcast. I am on pins and needles waiting for each new episode. Mr. Oakes is a brilliant interviewer interspersing humor with subject knowledge creating both an entertaining & educational experience. He puts his subjects at ease allowing them to shine. From tree sketchers, taxidermists, wildlife photographers & animators the listener is transported into exciting new vistas. We are also made keenly aware of how we are renters, not owners of this planet & we must move forward together uniting our “tiny voices” to protect our natural world. BRAVO.

An absolutely charming, thoughtful podcast shedding light on the plight of endangered animals and what they are facing. The messages are handled in a most create way through claymation. Bring yourself back to your childhood and give a listen. You’ll always learn something new in one of David Oakes podcasts. Living across the pond I’m just learning about Morris dancing!

I simply adore this podcast, which explores the many ways that nature and art touch our lives. The conversations are intimate yet accessible, and often lead to thought-provoking and philosophical considerations of how we as humans interpret the changing world around us. I enjoy the variety of guests and the wide range of media they use to interpret the experience of nature. Thank you for this insightful and inspiring pod!

Trees a Crowd guides the listener through a lovely, descriptive conversation allowing one to be infused with the the scenic narrative. The dive into the artist’s creative process was absolutely a favorite & encourages my own artistic appetite. Having been born and raised in New Orleans, historic oak trees are a distinct part of my selfdom. Learning about another’s parallel connection with nature - even from across the ocean - offers a familiar yet new outlook. As an artist, admirer of nature & podcast fiend, I am eager to join more adventures with Trees a Crowd!

Quirky, fascinating and educational. If you love trees, you’ll enjoy this.

Love David, and his passion of learning about the world and the peculiarities of nature.

Absolutely adored this episode. I felt so connected to every word and story. Thank you for a lovely podcast!
