Stream of Contentedness with Lewis Garnham

Dan Appleby is a conservation biologist who specialises in birds. He was recently lead author of a study on Regent Honeyeaters, a native Australian bird facing extinction due to habitat loss and disappearance of culture. We speak about all sorts of things relating to animals. For context on Dan's work see this interview he did with the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/17/science/birds-honeyeater-birdsong-conservation.html
