Show Notes

Today, we have Langdon Moss on the show. Langdon is hosting a great new podcast called The Savage West where he unravels the complex web of early western expansion, taking listeners beyond the basic narrative to expose the raw realities of America's savage origins. What truths lie beneath the legends of violence, greed, hope, and courage? What do the history books get right, and what ideas, events and people deserve re-examination? Through dynamic, unscripted episodes, Moss explores divergent perspectives to challenge what we thought we knew about our past, inviting listeners to question and re-examine the stories at the heart of American history. Langdon also worked as a research assistant for a past guest Dean King with his book on John Muir. It’s always great to talk with someone working in a similar space as myself and we can get into so much in this podcast. And Langdon even has a few questions for me as well. Please enjoy our conversation!
