Ep. 2.7 - Patrick the Bear and the Cameron Safari Park

It's the 1970s! It's the historic Cameron estate of Loch Lomond! And American Bison, Tibetan yak, and highland cattle wander the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. So too do Himalayan black bears, European brown bears, and some rather sad polar bears. Join Matt and Gianluca as they try to make sense of a rather bizarre moment for the area's history, and discover its link to the formative UK rock scene, some of which played out in a nearby stately house. Listen now on your favourite podcast platforms! Immerse yourself in Scotland's most famous natural environment through the informed and uninformed conversations of two local lads from Loch Lomond and the Trossachs in the beautiful West of Scotland. Mixing hours of dense research with spontaneous reflections on the more odd aspects of growing up in the region, Gianluca and Matt will take you on a truly authentic and (for better or for worse) unforgettable sonic journey along the famous Bonnie Banks.
