    Learning and Laughing
    I listen to this podcast at work and quite often have to hold in the laughter to avoid weird looks from others. When I’m not suppressing a laugh I’m learning and it’s the best! Anytime I see a new episode is available I know it’s about to be a great day. Thank you, John!

    Wren you want to make a gourde-ous birdhouse...
    Found the dirty birdie 'No Home for Old Wren' podcast to learn all about the bird I was looking to home. Then I spent the day drilling out seasoned gourdes for next spring's wrens and learning about my old favorite bird. Then I kept listening while refilling the birdfeeders, cleaning the gutters and planning for the all important winter watering hole. And THEN found a paper wasp hive on freecycle... I sure hope you're right that the wasps won't still be in house in January! (Contrary to what may be popular opinion, I want more pods about backyard birds and the common guys I may see around. Or maybe one of bird lore, like 'Cardinals mean your dead loved ones are back in town'.)

    Best Dirty Bird ever
    Great information on a variety of birds. Perfect mix of entertainment and bird facts. As a newbie birder I am learning lots! Thanks for all the research, how do you find the time?

    Fun and informative - my new favorite podcast!
    I recently started commuting to work after over a year and a half of working from home. Dirty Bird makes the adjustment to commuting again a LOT more bearable! I’ve learned so much and have laughed along the way. I’d recommend the podcast to both casual nature lovers and hardcore birders alike - a funny, lighthearted approach to learning more about our feathered friends. 🙂

    Birds are great and so is John
    Love this podcast! I love birds and I’ve enjoyed learning about them. John is a great host. Clearly does his research and is passionate and enthusiastic about his subject. Great sound quality as well!

    Puffins, song sparrows, and turkey vultures oh my
    A great podcast that keeps me engaged as I navigate through the bird world. John adds a little zip/zing to his wonderful bird podcast making his show sooo easy to digest. There’s even an episode that touch upon MURDER! But birds are involved?? Plumage wars 😮Thanks for enlightening me John. Keep it going, I listen to every episode!!

    Bird knowledge for the “Not so Birdie”
    “Bird-Nerd.” That is now something I would have to call myself after listening to several of these podcasts! Also, from Elkins, WV, I would have been one of the “women of Walmart” in search of the right feed for my feeder! Honestly, I never thought I would be the kind of person looking forward to talking about birds… but here we are. 🤷‍♀️ Thanks to my partner, Jen, who turned me on to all of this “birding”. I now use The Dirty Bird to share and grow my knowledge-base. I just keep coming back for more! Again, who knew? Thanks John and all your fantastic guests that make the podcast what it is. It’s awesome to build up our own little backyard bungalow with a little guidance from The Dirty Bird.

    Please keep it coming!
    Loaded with great information and I love the Native American mythology. Great touch! The format is relatable and wide ranging and often recorded outside with birds and other wildlife chiming in. Learn a lot and always have fun listening to this great podcast.

    Enjoy listening to the facts and fables surrounding bird life! John's style is classic meets Howard Stern with a genuineness that captures the listener to wonder what they have been missing all around them!

    Low budget but fun
    Obviously just a guy who bought a mic and decided to talk about birds with his friends. I like the episodes recorded outside

  • Soggy Trousers
    Loved it all around
    Very entertaining presentation of birding facts compared to other mediums. Tons of great information and easy to listen to, very refreshing approach to ornithology. Highly recommend for any nature enthusiasts. Keep ‘em coming!

    Bird Boner
    This guys voice and the cute way he mispronounces words along with his vast knowledge of all things birds and nature, has given me a boner that I’ve not been able to quell since the first episode. A nature boner if you will. People with all levels of knowledge will come away learning something, and if you’re lucky enough like me, a nature erection that just won’t quit. Give it a listen!

  • whoopsie b
    Easygoing, informative, funny
    You can tell these guys know and care a lot about birds and nature. Nice to hear a laid back conversation about an interesting topic. Also, while jokes aren’t a focus of the podcast, the banter definitely made me laugh a few times. Looking forward to more!
  • hats and ponchos
    Clean these birds!
    Where is Dawn dish detergent am I right!?! Dirty birds! Haha these guys are funny and entertaining.
  • The Night Heron
    Educational and funny
    If you want to get a little ‘birdy’ and talk about these fascinating creatures like you would with a group of friends, this podcast is for you! Great topics so far, can’t wait to hear what’s next.
  • The White Kanye West
    Top 5 birding podcast on ITunes!
