| 9/2/26 | Introducing: Natural Causes | Natural Causes is a podcast about the politics and practicalities of going outside in a world on fire, hosted by Dr. James Stout. It approaches the outdoors, conservation, agriculture, food sovereignty, and Indigenous land rights as interconnected issues. We want to combine unflinching journalism with unabashed advocacy for the land we all share, and welcome everyone into the outdoors and the fight for our public lands. Our shared wild spaces are under threat like never before, from climate change, the Trump administration, and extractive capitalism. Now, more than ever, we need serious journalism and serious solidarity that engages people with the struggle to protect these spaces for generations to come. New episodes weekly.

| 8/27/26 | Race Scientists and the Human Zoo | In 1904, men who believed in 'race science' put hundreds of people in a human zoo at the St. Louis world's fair.

| 7/30/26 | Rabid on the Subject of Segregation: Byron de la Beckwith, Pt 4 | In the months leading up to the murder of Medgar Evers, the man who killed him was watching his world crumble. Byron de la Beckwith had dedicated his life to the cause of segregation, but it was a losing battle. The governor of Mississippi had backed down, allowing a second black student to enter Ole Miss. Governor George Wallace in Alabama backed down, too. Integration was creeping in all over. That, and his wife left him. Sources & Further Reading: Doyle, William (2001).

| 7/23/26 | Black Monday: Byron de la Beckwith, Pt. 3 | In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional. Segregated schools didn't react right away, but segregationists did. Within months, the Citizens' Councils began to form in counties across Mississippi. And Byron de la Beckwith was one of the group's earliest and most enthusiastic members.Sources & Further Reading:Massengill, Reed (2024).
