328. Hunting for mushrooms - and legendary animals - with Kevin Parr

Plodcast regular Kevin Parr joins host Fergus Collins for a charming mushroom hunting walk in a wooded Welsh valley. Along the way, as the foraging basket with treats, they discuss Kev's extraordinary new book, An Unnatural History of Britain – his series of epic quests in search of animals that really shouldn't be here. It's an unmissable audio delight. An Unnatural History of Britain is published by The History Press.
