Looking for mushrooms, finding happiness

We're journeying into hidden worlds, exploring nature that offers much more than what initially meets the eye. We travel to locations that continue to thrive against the odds.


When Long Litt Woon's life drastically changed, she turned to the secretive world of mushrooms to manage her grief. She tells us how these visible fungi are just one tiny part of a vast and complex organism that lives beneath our feet.


We'll hear how a crew member filming the latest David Attenborough series, A Perfect Planet, managed to document the life of a creature measuring the size of an apostrophe: the fig wasp.


Finally we go to Ethiopia, where small pockets of forest surrounding churches continue to thrive.


Thank you for listening to another series of the BBC Earth podcast.


As ever, we love hearing from you on social media, so do share with us your favourite episode so far or a story that amazed, surprised or moved you…
