Feed Swap - Kentucky History Podcast: Shawnee in Kentucky

While we work on a new season, we’re excited to partner with Kentucky History Podcast for a special podcast feed swap! Host Jameson Cable shares one of his most-listened-to episodes: Shawnee in Kentucky. In this engaging conversation, Jameson is joined by Dr. Stephen Warren, author of The Shawnees and Their Neighbors, 1795–1870 and The Worlds the Shawnees Made: Migration and Violence in Early America. Together, they explore the Shawnee people’s history, their interactions with governments and borderlands, and the preservation of cultural identity through centuries of change. Launched in 2019, the Kentucky History Podcast has become a leading resource for exploring Kentucky’s rich past. With more than 200 podcast episodes, over 300 videos, and 1 million views on YouTube, the show dives deep into early Kentucky history — from Native peoples and frontier settlements to politics, culture, and everyday life in the Bluegrass. 🎧 Listen to [Your Podcast Title] here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kentucky-history-podcast/id1478069160 [https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpodcasts.apple.com%2Fus%2Fpodcast%2Fkentucky-history-podcast%2Fid1478069160&data=05%7C02%7Cmsullivan%40fraziermuseum.org%7C8fc4bd214ddc4936ccd608de09f60171%7C5672cc96dc0b406fa94886b716a89c5f%7C0%7C0%7C638959149391705840%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=GHVKRKOh2ektc686AudRKMJGQzqgr2N87WG2pyzme%2FM%3D&reserved=0] ▶️ Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KentuckyHistoryChannel [https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2F%40KentuckyHistoryChannel&data=05%7C02%7Cmsullivan%40fraziermuseum.org%7C8fc4bd214ddc4936ccd608de09f60171%7C5672cc96dc0b406fa94886b716a89c5f%7C0%7C0%7C638959149391721028%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=1QsDGPK6QFgi1%2B4lYew3zMJvrJTTKsdlPkkT4j49E30%3D&reserved=0] 📖 Dr. Warren’s book, The Worlds the Shawnees Made: https://uncpress.org/9781469627274/the-worlds-the-shawnees-made/ [https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funcpress.org%2F9781469627274%2Fthe-worlds-the-shawnees-made%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cmsullivan%40fraziermuseum.org%7C8fc4bd214ddc4936ccd608de09f60171%7C5672cc96dc0b406fa94886b716a89c5f%7C0%7C0%7C638959149391735658%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=6GnS2w2TaYBLwY8tPL6uLEOsPbgVI2jxnZ8ROn2Vkvo%3D&reserved=0] Don’t miss this opportunity to explore Kentucky’s past through the voices of leading historians and storytellers.
