About The Podcast Show
The Primal Biology Show
When I sit down with some of the top experts in biology, we’re diving deep into how all living things are connected.
My love for both biology and adventure drives me to explore the incredible ways nature works, and how our environment shapes not just our bodies, but how we see the world around us.
From the tiniest microorganisms to entire ecosystems, everything plays a role in this intricate web of life. What I’ve learned is that when we start to understand these connections, we see just how closely tied we are to the natural world—and that’s where the real adventure begins.

The role of social hierarchies in various species
How power and status influence behavior
The interplay between sex and social structures
Lessons humans can learn from the natural world
About The Author & Host
A Lifetime of Curiosity and Discovery
Hi, I’m Paul Feldmann. For over forty years, I’ve been captivated by the natural world, driven by a passion to explore the diversity of life on Earth.
With a B.A. in Environmental Studies and Origins of Behavior, an M.S. in Biology, and experience on global research projects—including collaborations with the Smithsonian—I now share my insights through the Primal Biology podcast and my book, Primal.
I started the show to make scientific research accessible and relatable to the public, bridging the gap between complex studies and everyday understanding.
