Storytelling Animals

By: Dayton Martindale
  • Summary

  • Storytelling Animals is a green new podcast where we use books to help make sense of the ecological crisis – and think about what comes next. For most episodes, host Dayton Martindale will interview authors about their new or recent fiction and nonfiction, and talk about how we might build better relations with each other and our fellow creatures. Sometimes, he'll review books or talk with academics and activists, too.

    Patreon subscribers at all tiers get early access to locked episodes, and Patreon subscribers above $7/month can also join a subscribers-only book club hosted by Dayton to dig deeper into these ideas and discuss how they might inform political action.


    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  • Looking Back on Storytelling Animals, with The Real Dancing Eagle
    Nov 27 2023

    In this bonus episode of Storytelling Animals, I look back on what I've learned from almost two years of the podcast with my brother Kyle Martindale, who designed my logo. We also talk about his new children's book, The ABC's of the Real Dancing Eagle, and share some formative animal encounters from our pasts. Thanks so much for everyone who supported this podcast in any way throughout my first two seasons!

  • Crossings: Ben Goldfarb on How Roads Devastate Wildlife
    Aug 29 2023

    Today's guest is Ben Goldfarb, author of Crossings: How Road Ecology Is Shaping the Future of Our Planet. It's the last episode in my series on the trouble with car dependency, and a nice companion to my earlier series on animal agency. It's also the official season finale of this podcast, although there will be one last bonus episode in September. Patreon subscribers will not be charged next month (or for the foreseeable future, unless and until I relaunch the podcast).
