Episode description and notes
What lies beyond the Sahara’s famous sand dunes? In this episode of Geography 101, host Daniel Lucas explores the Sahara Desert’s remarkable variety of landscapes, from vast gravel plains and rocky plateaus to towering dunes, mountain ranges, and life-giving oases. Discover how the Ahaggar Mountains in Algeria and the Tibesti Mountains in Chad rise above the desert floor, and learn why sand covers only part of this immense region. The Sahara stretches across North Africa and is shaped by extreme conditions, human resilience, trade, culture, and nature. Join us to explore the stories held within this vast desert and see why the Sahara is far more than an endless sea of sand. Find more episodes at Universal Podcast Network.
