This week, in honour of Earth Day, we’re sharing something a little different on rabble radio: a series of soundscapes, taking you across the world, visiting rabble staff and friends, old and new, in nature.

As the national director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society, Sandra Schwartz   recently shared on the Courage My Friends podcast series: “There is good scientific evidence to show that time in nature reduces stress. It creates a sense of community. It creates a sense of wanting to protect what’s around you too.”

We hope you enjoy this week’s episode and that it encourages you to get out and appreciate the nature surrounding you—not just this Earth Week, but all year long. Take a listen.

Featured in this week’s episode are: Nick Seebruch, editor; Sarah Sahagian, publisher; Gabriela Calugay-Casuga, labour reporter; Karishma Joshi, digital engagement producer; Breanne Doyle, podcast producer; Stephen Wentzell, former national politics reporter; Bridget Potasky, former Jack Layton Journalism for Change fellow (2025/26); Bryan Carney, technical lead; Mads Bayliss, administrative assistant
