This week, we bring you the latest episode of the Delaware Humanities’ podcast – ‘People and Planet.’

On this episode, we focus on a pair of First State destinations that help connect people to their planet by educating them about the world around them.

The Delaware Museum of Nature and Science and the Brandywine Zoo each offer windows into habitats in our own backyards and around the world and how we can engage with them in a meaningful and positive way.

And to explain how they do that the podcast welcomes Delaware Museum of Nature and Science executive director Mandy Santiago and Brandywine Zoo director Brint Spencer.
