Customer Reviews
Marine Biology 101
This podcast is amazing! It's a must have for any future/undergrad Marine Biologist! This is a good way to catch up on Marine Bio in your spare time instead of sitting in a library reading tons of journals all day.
Our Ocean World is a great Podcast
The podcast called "Our Ocean World" is a creative way to look at the ocean. The facts that are represented are very correct. This podcast is a great way to get anyone that is interested in the ocean a easy way to learn.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our Ocean World is the best way to learn about the ocean, and the BEST podcast ever. It sure is better than NatureWatch, that's for sure. I would be a special guest for an episode, which would be the best day ever. If I had the choice to listen to NatureWatch or Our Ocean World, guess which one I would choose.
