For the non-educational podcast I watched a few different video podcasts.  They were from National Geographic – Wild Chronicles Digital Shorts and the two that I watched were called Sahara Trees and Panama Golden Frog.  The description for the Sahara Trees from itunes is: The African nation of Mauritania borders the largest desert in the world, the Sahara. Westward expansion of the desert is encroaching upon the nation, threatening to swallow homes, farms and everything else in its path. Until recently, local residents had nowhere to run from the sands. Thanks to the acacia tree, they may not need to run any longer. The description about the Panama Golden Frogs is: Considered a symbol of luck and prosperity, Panama’s golden frog is an important part of this country’s natural heritage. But a deadly fungus is spreading like a plague through the forest and the situation is critical for these tiny frogs. Wild Chronicles joins some intrepid researchers going to extraordinary lengths to save these endangered creatures from extinction.

Both of these videos were very interesting to watch!
