I am not that now-famous Dr. Jones of the movies. No, that's not me. You see, Indie is my brother.

We are on safari. Sorry, there is no going back- you are already a part of it. As are: tropical plants and exotic animals, exotica music and jungle movies, tropical cocktails and exotic foods, rain forest preservation and wildlife conservation.

Jungle Deep - The Tropical Lifestyle Podcast on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)

09/22/13 • 38 min

Today we meet the amazing DeWet Du Toit. He is the one I call, the Real African Tarzan! That's because he does live in Africa, and much of the time he lives as Tarzan lived - in the jungles, climbing trees, diving off waterfalls, and cavorting with elephants and pythons. This Tarzan is complete with gorgeous muscles, a stylish loincloth, and a love for wildlife. This guy is the real deal. It's taken me months to arrange, but we will finally get to talk to this modern-day Tarzan. DeWet is an actor determined to play Tarzan in the next live action film. He is also a film-maker and excellent at internet marketing, too. He is a man, who, against all odds and occasional ridicule, is following a dream. Right now, we are connected to DeWet in Africa, and we are going to explore his dream, his life, and get to know, today's TARZAN!

Jungle Deep - Episode 24 Sloths with Stephanie Arne

Jungle Deep - The Tropical Lifestyle Podcast on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)

09/13/13 • 31 min

Hello, and welcome. We are going to talk with our Field Correspondent, Stephanie Arne from the Honolulu Zoo about Sloths. If you were lucky enough to spot one in the trees of the South American rain forest, it would look like a stringy clump of moss and algae in the branches overhead. It wouldn't seem to move, because they move so slowly. And because they live upside down, hanging from tree branches, you wouldn't recognize one as being an animal at all. But when you get to know a sloth that has been all cleaned up, you find that they are delightful creatures and down-right cute. Well, thanks to Stephanie, we are going to get to know Sloths.

Jungle Deep - Episode 21 I Was a Hollywood Tarzan Part 2

Jungle Deep - The Tropical Lifestyle Podcast on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)

07/15/13 • 35 min

This is Part 2 of our conversation with character actor and star of the 1959 Hollywood movie, Tarzan, the Ape Man, Denny Miller! In part 1 we got to hear about Denny's early experiences in Hollywood and playing the part of Tarzan. We heard that the Asian Elephants used in the movie had to wear rubber ears to look like African Elephants, that riding elephants entailed using ladders to mount them and since a saddle was out of the question, Tarzan has to worry about a bad chaffing problem as he wore only a loin cloth while sitting on the elephants rough and bristly back. And apparently Tarzans the world over are vulnerable to occasional sudden nasty bites from their co-stars and friends, the chimpanzees.

Yes, Tarzan wore one but it was scrapped because it was too noisy - he could not sneak up on the bad guys! Is it true that Tarzan had to be constantly ready to punch his cute little co-star in the nose? What?! Yes, hear all about this and more as we speak with successful character actor and Tarzan star, Denny Miller.
