Jair Candor tracks down remote Amazonian tribes in order to protect them from outsiders. One tribe, the Piripkura has just one member left who鈥檚 living nomadically deep in the rainforest. It鈥檚 Jair鈥檚 mission to find him, to establish he鈥檚 alive, and to protect his land rights from those who want the forest for themselves. Jair has monitored numerous indigenous groups over the years, and he鈥檚 faced frequent malaria, armed logging groups, and the occasional arrow fired in his direction. He spoke to Outlook鈥檚 Andrea Kennedy.

Karl-Heinz Martens is a retired postman from Germany who had a very unusual beat - he delivered thousands of letters to a tree known as Bridegroom's Oak. They were love letters, written by people in the hope that a potential partner might read them and reply. First broadcast in 2018.
