We are doing something new on the podcast! We want to start interviewing some of the coolest people on the planet – park rangers!
For our very first interview, we are talking to Ranger Ryan Cooper, who works for Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail. His job is to map the Lewis and Clark Trail, so he’s basically a modern-day explorer!
Today, he is giving us a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s like to work as a park ranger, sharing fascinating stories about the Lewis and Clark Expedition, and diving into his other passion: delicious BBQ.
In this episode, we discuss:
How Ryan became a park ranger
What he does on a day-to-day basis in his job
Cool information about the Lewis and Clark Trail
The unique artifacts that have been found by archeologists on this trail
The fascinating history of the expedition
The coolest part about Ryan’s job
The best BBQ along the Lewis and Clark Trail
We hope you enjoy this conversation with Ryan! If you want amazing BBQ restaurant recommendations, be sure to follow Ryan on Instagram @bbqtourist. You can also check out The Smoke Sheet at bbqnewsletter.substack.com.
Let us know if you know of anyone who works for the national parks that we should interview! We are always looking for fun and interesting people to connect with.
