Go West, Young Podcast is now The Landscape—still all about America’s public lands and the outdoors, but now without the play on words that referenced Manifest Destiny and America’s legacy of Native American genocide.

Rather than just re-name the podcast, we wanted to meet this moment in American history with a conversation about the history and legacy of Manifest Destiny and the westward expansion of the United States.
