As part of Women’s History Month, The Atlas Obscura Podcast is bringing you classic episodes from the archive. In this one, artist Rachel Sussman takes us on a tour of the world’s oldest living things, which she’s been documenting for 10 years.

Our podcast is an audio guide to the world’s wondrous, awe-inspiring, strange places. In under 15 minutes, we’ll take you to an incredible site, and along the way you’ll meet some fascinating people and hear their stories. Join us daily, Monday through Thursday, to explore a new wonder with cofounder Dylan Thuras and a neighborhood of Atlas Obscura reporters.
