In this episode, we’re talking about a very adorable secret: pandas in New York City! Who doesn’t love pandas? In fact, the story of how pandas came to America is deeply tied to New York City. We're joined by an expert on this story, Nathalia Holt, author of The Beast in the Clouds: The Roosevelt Brothers' Deadly Quest to Find the Mythical Giant Panda. Learn the New York City origin story behind the discovery of the panda, about Theodore Roosevelt and his sons in Prohibition Era New York, all the pandas who have graced the Big Apple with their presence over the years, the first American (a woman!) to bring back a panda cub from China, and the passionate attempts to bring pandas back in recent years by some very notable New Yorkers.

Correction: When the podcast episode refers to Hyde Park, it should be Sagamore Hill.

Music by Kittens Ablaze.
