Summary
On this episode, we bring you a guest story from the podcast Outlandish, a show that focuses on stories from our public lands.

In addition to the story, we bring you an interview with Liz Townley, the mastermind behind Outlandish. We talk with her about her show, and about the broader effort to get more Americans involved in shaping the future of our national forests.
