Really interesting podcast… Will there be a Season 2

I’ve just recently discovered this podcast and have enjoyed all of the episodes. Unfortunately, the last episode recorded was on August 13, 2020. Will there be any more??? I’m interesting in learning more!

This is a sleeper hit! We start off with loon sounds, then learn about the dagger sharp underwater spearing, and then a story of survival and good humor with the toughest woman alive.
