Abstract

This audio podcast surveys the breadth of natural history, starting with the Big Bang and progressing through the formation of stars and planets to our own Earth, from there on serving as an overview of the history of life through its various eras, and culminating in a look at the hominin family tree and the evolution of humankind. The podcast is intended to be accessible to listeners of all levels, requiring only an understanding of English and a willingness to learn. It should leave its audience with a solid scientific foundation for understanding how we and our world evolved to this present state, and with a burgeoning desire and ability to learn more about nature.
