Resistance Rangers On The Air

Resistance Rangers On The Air

We're off-duty rangers who, after a long day of park rangering and interpreting our nation's history, just aren't done spitting facts and sharing truths. The more they try to tell us what history they want us to hide from the public, the more we're just dying to share it with anyone who will listen. Tune in for short episodes where we break down the newest Executive Orders or longer episodes where we discuss how everything going on affects your favorite public lands. Got questions? We're experts in having answers.

We talk to brilliant, inspiring grass roots organizers from Save Our Signs and Avenging the Ancestors Coalition about the ongoing saga of the President’s House in Philadelphia and how we can save...

On Valentine's Day 2025, thousands of probationary federal employees were illegally fired, including rangers in the National Park Service. This was a cruel act, ending the careers of many passionate and skilled employees before they could truly start. Today, we honor and remember them by sharing their stories, and we will continue to fight for them.


***Correction!!! Around minute 44 or so, we mistakenly state that NOAA offer...

On October 3rd we did an Ask Me Anything on Reddit and Instagram. Now, in case you missed it, here's some of your questions and the answers we had for you!

Some of our rangers have been around for a hot minute, and they wanted to share a couple of stories for all of us going through it for the first time.

Contains some swearing. We're a little fed up.

On August 25, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act, which created the National Park Service. We therefore celebrate this event, called "Founder's Day" each year on August 25 in all of America's national parks to recognize our origins. Now, in honor of Founder's Day, we're taking this chance to recognize a precious (and now former) institution of the NPS.

The Horace Albright Training Center (HOAL) trained rangers fo...

We’re shining a light on some recent impacts to your public lands!


On May 20, DOI Secretary Doug Burgum issued Secretarial Order 3431 - “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History”. SO 3431 required all NPS sites to report any monument, memorial, statue, marker, or sign that “inappropriately disparages Americans past or living”. Without formal guidance, some park sites complied... and some did not.

The reports were made, the cons...

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
