Coast Files Podcast

Come with us this week as we explore South Africa’s world-renowned Sterkfontein Cave. This cave is an anthropological goldmine, famous for redefining our understanding of human evolution. But, beneath the famous fossil beds lies a flooded labyrinth that became a survival nightmare for Pieter Verhulsel in 1984. Dive in with us as we discuss evolutionary breakthroughs and tragic endings that changed rescue protocols forever.

Well folks, Meg finally (kinda) got her s**t together and is officially opening the Coast Files Library.

This will be posted the 2nd Friday of each month and will consist of books or media we used for research, highlighted on an episode, personal favourites, and recommendations!

I plan on doing a mix, since there were requests for video recommendations too. This means we’d LOVE your help- send in a book you couldn’t put down, a tv show you binged, or a movie you kept thinking about.

First up is the book that Chantel used for a large portion of her Mermaid episode #9. Mermaids were written about and apart of so many cultures long before we met Ariel 🧜🏻‍♀️ Learn about the many different mythological sirens from Scotland, Japan, Russia, India and much more.

Happy reading 📖
