About?

In this new podcast, Flores chronicles the heroes, scoundrels, and pivotal events that defined the West, blending captivating stories of its charismatic animals, Jeffersonian explorations, and the adventurer-artists who immortalized Native peoples and western landscapes. From well-known tales to hidden gems, Flores uncovers the rich history of the West like never before. Joined by his former students Rinella and Williams, as well as other historians and special guests, Flores will share, debate, and reflect on these stories across 26 dynamic episodes.  Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the American West—not just as a historical era, but as a lens for how we experience and appreciate the outdoors today.
