The Call of the Wild by Jack London (1903)

In this episode, we dive into The Call of the Wild, Jack London's 1903 adventure classic that follows Buck—the domesticated dog who's yanked from California comfort and thrown into the unforgiving world of the Yukon. We'll explore his transformation from house pet to pack leader, the brutal beauty of the wilderness, and why this tale of instinct, survival, and awakening continues to resonate more than a century later. Join us as we mush through snow, struggle, and the irresistible pull of the wild.
