Steve Rinella here, the American West with Dan Flores is a new podcast production on the Meat Eater Podcast Network.

It's hosted by author and historian Dan Flores, who happens to be mine and our own Dr. Randall's former professor.

By focusing on deep time, wild animals, native peoples in the West's unique environments,

Flores will challenge your understanding of the American West, and he will help to explain why it is the way it is today.

I count Dan Flores as a friend. We do not agree on everything, but he has had a

massive impact on my understanding of American history. And I invite you to get challenged by him

in the same way that I have. Catch the premiere of the American West with Dan Flores on Tuesday, May 6th on the Meat

Eater podcast network.

Subscribe to the American West with Dan Flores on Apple, Spotify, IHeart, or wherever you get

your podcasts.

Listen to Dan, and it will stretch your brain all out.

And I mean that in a very good way.

This is the meat eater podcast coming at you shirtless, severely bug-bitten, and in my case, underwearless.

Before we start today's show,

we'd like to touch on Dr. Randall's hair a little bit.

Yes.
