Les mer Match My Mountains

In Match My Mountains, Luke Nathan Phillips follows current controversies in public lands politics, advocates for policy protecting and stewarding those lands, and explores the history of conservation and deeper political history beyond it. Featuring journalists, activists, historians, former rangers, and colorful adventurers who know their stuff, the show will paint the American wilderness and American history in all their splendid colors, and show just why our forests and battlefields and mountains matter, and deserve to be protected—they literally forge our soul.

How to call BS with Wes Siler

National Parks and public lands are an issue everybody cares about, after they care about everything else— and most people don’t really understand the dynamics of public land policy. This means it’s quite common for very well-intentioned supporters to completely lose their minds over comparatively unimportant things— most recently, the bad-but-not-existential restructuring of the U.S. Forest Service. But how can your average bear tell the difference between a nothingburger and a giant whirling black hole of doom? Certified veteran take-no-prisoners wilderness warrior Wes Siler joins us to suss out some helpful hints and rules of thumb. And with the big budget bills coming up this summer and all the Wile E. Coyote land grab tricks the rustlers are sure to sneak into them, it’s important the public lands movement direct the massive public freakouts to the things that matter most. We could’ve saved the Boundary Waters… Take a listen and let us know what you think below— questions, comments, vicious personal attacks, etc. etc. etc— and make sure to follow Wes’s excellent SubStack below. https://wessiler.substack.com You're listening to Match My Mountains hosted by Luke Nathan Phillips

Match My Mountains Episode 1: An Annoyingly Brief History of Conservation in America

Everybody knows about the two great American traditions of cOnSeRvATiOn aNd PrEsErVaTiOn (and if you don't, we're exploring it here!) Not many people look backward beyond John Muir and Gifford Pinchot. We all assume American conservation started when the big evil oligarchs cut down too many trees and a few idealists convinced Teddy Roosevelt to stop them. But conservation came from somewhere, and its true roots go deeper into the American past-- back to the romantic artists and writers around the Transcendentalists, back to the scientists and explorers the federal government sent out to map everything, back almost to the beginning of the Republic. These guys wrote their thoughts down as they wandered around the wilderness, and subtly shaped the ideas that the first rangers in the new National Parks and National Forests would bring with them to the great adventures of public land management in the 20th Century.  It's not all hugging trees (even though that's the fun part!) Take a listen and let us know what you think below-- questions, comments, vicious personal attacks, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. And remember-- if you have ever had a wet dream about the U.S. Forest Service, nobody's judging you. You're listening to Match My Mountains, with Luke Nathan Phillips.
