Uncovering Kansas

a podcast elevating & amplifying Kansas & Kansans
Welcome to Uncovering Kansas, the podcast about culture, travel, people, history, and enterprise in Kansas. I’m a native Kansan who has traveled extensively and believes that Kansas is as interesting as New York, Berlin, Rome, and San Diego. Different, yes. But interesting all the same. Everywhere I go I serve as ambassador for Kansas.

Established in 2018

Uncovering Kansas shares stories of interesting people, places & events in Kansas. Dedicated to the spirit behind the quote:
People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home.
~Dagobert Runes

Our Goal

Inspire Kansans to learn about their state, start conversations among ourselves, encourage different people to come together, and share stories about Kansas and its people with the rest of the world.

Kansans
Our interviewees & our inspiration

There are many of you out there. You come in different shapes and shades, hold shared beliefs, and differ in others. You hope and dream, fear, and fret; herd cattle and plant crops; build companies and families; compose music and create artworks so large in scale that the surface of the Earth itself must serve as your canvas. You may be guided by faith or committed to scientific reasoning. You are Kansans, we look forward to meeting more of you and sharing your stories.
