Sweet Little Human
Mother Nature, played by punk legend Iggy Pop, has had a tough few thousand years. Tired and traumatized by relentless human expansion, they battle many of the ills that plague humans today: Addiction, anxiety, depression. And, of course, cynical, unpredictable rage.
Their only solace? A good glass of whisky with their clumsy assistant Mr. Bee.
But all is not lost. Mother Nature decides it's time to make a change. And what better way to tell a tragic story about humans but through yet another podcast?
Enter 'Sweet Little Human' - a podcast all about the mess humans have made on planet Earth and their incredible ability to ignore and sidestep the issue. Even if it means the end for their silly little species.
Featuring Iggy Pop as Mother Nature, Anjuli Deo as The Editor, and Maya Tekeli as Freelance Journalist Maya Tekeli.

Sweet Little Human
Water is Wet...Dumbass
Three-quarters of the planet is covered with water, yet humans are still ignorant about the ocean. In this episode, Mother Nature sends two assistants to the Strait of Gibraltar to learn more about the big blue, but they are quickly distracted by fish, dolphins, and seasickness. Luckily, expert Professor Katherine Richardson can explain the ocean’s inextricable relationship to the climate and alarming updates on collapsing currents.
Sweet Little Human is an Orkan Media production released in collaboration with R8dio and funded by The Carlsberg Foundation.
Written, edited and produced by Nikolaj Kirk, Roxanne Batty, Jens Raunkjær and Magnus Møller. Reporting and recording in this episode was done by Roxanne Batty and Magnus Møller. Featuring Iggy Pop as Mother Nature and Maya Tekeli as Freelance Journalist Maya Tekeli. Special thanks to Professor Katherine Richardson for her knowledge and dedication to communicating about the urgency of the climate crisis.
