Field Trip

Field Trip is a deeply immersive documentary-style podcast from The Washington Post that explores the complex intersection of American history, environmental conservation, and modern societal challenges. Hosted by Lillian Cunningham, the show transcends the traditional travelogue format by venturing into the heart of iconic national parks to investigate the urgent, often contentious stories defining these landscapes. With a tone that is both investigative and contemplative, the podcast appeals to listeners interested in environmental policy, historical narratives, and the human stories behind land management. By highlighting the voices of those fighting for the evolution and survival of these spaces, Field Trip offers a distinctive, high-production look at how our past shapes the future of our most cherished public lands.
