This series has been absolutely phenomenal

I listen to The Casual Criminalist and heard him mention your podcast! I had to comment about it. I listen to you and Simon literally every day. You two help me make it through the workday in a good mood. Thank you for that.

i don't mean to harp on it but this channel is incredible. You're not only committed to detail and honesty while being open, but also a gifted orator.

Things you don’t learn in history class, Josh covers. 🤘

My guy!!!! Been waiting on this one. Thanks buddy, and God bless.

I am really enjoying these lewis and clark episodes, josh. keep up the great work man.

I watch all the historical docs…… your accent and strong voice, give your stories, strength and a natural feel…. I love the topics to man you get underneath the fingernails…. Good job ,keep it up, love it!!

Simply put, still the ABSOLUTE BEST CHANNEL FOR THIS CONTENT!!! Thank you Josh, 🙏🇬🇧👍😉

It’s hard learning these new facts about the people we learned about in school as kids but I’m glad we get details like this as well….

Outstanding attention to detail like always.

Made my night. Thanks for the hard work, really enjoying it.

I'm here from the Whistlerverse, been subbed ever since I heard their recommendation. I'm really a newbie when it comes to this particular area of history (knowing the classics better), but your depth, detail, consideration and humor make it one of my favorite channels!

More interesting, better delivery, great voice for story telling, and the added humor is way more entertaining than some channels I've watched with millions of subscribers

Don't know how you popped into my algorithm but I'm sure glad you did. I've always been a huge history buff and I've read all kinds of books but I've been looking for something historical that I can listen to at work. Too many are dry and boring. This fits the bill perfectly.

Love this channel. I listened to the story of Bass Reaves and had a great discussion about it with a guest at work. Great work Josh!

I definitely found this channel because of the CC video, and I am enjoying the hell out of it. Really enjoyed the Billy the Kid videos.

I've literally commented on 5 of Simon's channels asking him that exact question. I see him everywhere

History is just as complicated as we are as people….and can just be as easily manipulated by unscrupulous people of all sides and opinions to get people to believe in things that are not necessarily true. Epistemology is a funny thing…. But hey! I just got back to Utah from the area Jim Bridger operated in over in Wyoming today and thought of your series on him while up there. So well done! You now have space reserved in my head. 😂 Keep up the good work and congrats on the shout out. Cheers.

can't believe you mentioned Simon lol, literally my 2 favorite youtubers

Hey Josh I have really enjoyed this series, awesome facts here. I was wondering if you have covered The Pony Express? If not I think it would be a great future topic. Thanks for all you do!

I was happy when I heard you mentioned in that Bonny and Clyde episode. 🙂

I came from the Bonnie and Clyde video last week and I think I've watched a dozen of your videos since then!

I don't know why I got so excited about hearing Simon give your show a shout out, probably because you two are my favorite UKpostsrs!!! I hope it helps your channel you definitely deserve it.

You are a master of your craft. This was educational and fascinating

It's like you were born to do this. You simply smash it out of the park. You got nothing wrong. I'm a Lewis and Clark freak. I have drank the water from the most distant fountain of the Missouri river. Best to you and yours. Cheers

Josh love you for your commitment ,and content 🙏

Thanks for these, I appreciate your many gray sides to history because it can be too easy to silence anyone over something said or done that overshadows any good or evil that may have been done

Great Episode!! Viva Wild West Extravaganza!!!🎉

I spent some time up there on the Columbia and was inspired to read "Undaunted Courage". Nothing but respect for the Corps.

Great update! I came from the Simonverse, and really enjoy your channel.

I was scrolling for something educational to watch, and saw this Lewis & Clark. At first I was like “meh, learned about L&C in school.” But then I saw it was Wild West Extravaganza who was telling it, and I had to watch it. Well done. 🥃🥃

1ST COMMENT!! Let’s go been awhile. Thanks for the consistent amazing stories. Didn’t forget about you lol you the man Josh LETS GOO

You content is great bro thanks for being you and telling all of these interesting documentarys 👍

Awesome, well written and narrated. Always enjoy. Chinook….Shi-nook. Cheers

Still crushing it Josh! Hope you never second guess going all in!

I don't know said it first but "The past is a foreign land, they do things different there."

Love the history lessons!! You remind us of time and people that was here before the highways and internet.

I'm enjoying your videos. You have a great way of telling history. One minor thing I'd like to point out is your pronounciation of "Chinook". It should sound like "shinook". I'm from Montana and we have a town named Chinook and we have chinook winds. Thanks for all of your efforts!

Enjoyed it as all ways mr. Josh, been listening to ya every scene you were thinking about quitting at the early bloody beaver days sure glad you didnt😊✌.

I’m enjoying this series so much! Thank you.

York couldn't catch a friggin break! Man!

I can not put into words, my gratitude and appreciation for your effort.

How do you loose your seamen, Josh? You should really be more aware of where you leave your seamen. Eventually you won’t be able to get your seamen back you know. Another great show Josh! Fantasize about your voice? I don’t know, but it was funny.

I very much appreciate your channel brother

Okay you're joke about Seamen was better than mine I admit defeat for now. Actually I really am enjoying and learning a lot from listening to you're channel nice work much appreciated. 💯👍🇺🇸

Awesome series! A little further back in time and may be more out of your date range than you like is Francis Marion . Pretty interesting man . Anyway I truly enjoy and appreciate your work.

The Corpse Of Discovery is my favorite American adventure. York and Sacagawea were absolutely indespensible, and, at least on the trail, treated as peers. It is unfortunate what happened to both of those characters after returning to St. Louis..... And, unfortunate for Captain Lewis' deep depression. Three years of valor wasted back in "civilization."

I too want it to be York who was living with the Crow and enjoying his freedom......and don't forget the four wives!

As a native washingtonian whose pretty active outdoors, especially in the area, I can't imagine how difficult a time these guys must've had

Awesome series 🙏🏴‍☠️🍁

I’d truly LOVE to live back in that time!

Hell yeah ,Josh . Geten big time. I'm glad to hear 😊

Dude. I'll find the exerpt about the vial eventually and send it to you. It's in my book stash here somewhere. I live in a cabin and most of them are in boxes out in the storage shed. Subbed to the criminal channel you suggested. Great fukin channel bud!

Great video

Your pronunciation of "Oregon" is good! Astoria, though. lol

The expedition did have an episode of lashing. Willard received 100 lashes for what Lewis claimed was due to his falling to sleep while guarding the horses after arriving on the coast. Willard would go to his grave denying the accusation. Also, Clark would have Willard come with him after the expedition on an another mission to establish relationships with all the Native tribes. Jefferson did not just stop with the expedition. Willard’s main task would be to teach them how to work with metals.

Thank you. 👍🇨🇦💪

Josh...even when I ain't in the mood fer your Stories, when you pop up on the auto play...it kinda pisses me off...but I'm working and don't get the change the damned channel for 20min...at that point... I'm like F*ck it! It's a great story...3x's in. Ya got the Medicine..n sum luck! Great job. Semper Fi!

Thanks!

Yeah!

I am impressed by your takedown of David. Glad to see a good Texas boy didn't take that shit he talked about you off him.

Where do you source your information?

When I was 19, we used to smoke weed. We had a massive mango tree. After smoking some blunts, we would climb that mango tree & munch out on those mangoes. After 3 months of eating mangoes every day, in over 30 years, I have never eaten another mango in my life. My stomach turns at the mere thought of a mango. Ugh! & here I was wondering did Josh miss the opportunity to roast the dog for it's name? Glad I could count on you! The left side of the map on York's back looks like a boar

Damn you Josh, venison tamales haven’t had since leaving home. I’m hungry now

Sup Josh

Hhiiihh. I am grateful to hear to hear the fuller picture of the histor(ies) I have read. It just hurts to know so much of our human history has been stumbling forward with so much blood on all of our hands. I am ashamed mostly.

I grew up poor in the 60s n yes, you do get tired of eating beans n potatoes, a tv dinner was a treat! Of course back then you just had to eat one to get full

What's up yall

"Hey, somebody stole my dog seamen!" " That didn't come out right" " I understand Captain, leave it to me." " Men, the Captain's seamen is in the hands of a native male or possibly on his back!"

Sweet

Other than that like your podcast

Whistler does it by having a staff of writers that do research. Most of the time he literally just reads off other people's work. There's nothing wrong with that, he's paying them and such, but he's not lone wolfing all those channels.

A crueler master than the one he already had? Never heard that part of the story.

Fell asleep to this three times. Your sultry voice paired with a hard day's work is deadly.

How old is the founder of Channelle Vallarta café cash I came in I left I see you have more than doubled your subscriber since you were a manager there now 100,000 subscribers he’s gonna come fast :-)

1st....BOOOOOOM

York should of snuck off in the mountains poor bastard

I never had any respect toward people who owned slaves!

The truth to history brother at least ways the way I see it there's each party,s side there's the truth than there's the either multiplication of or subtraction of elements to any story that unatachment and distance of time add the older I get the more I realize I don't know tge more I also realize one of the biggest mistakes we encounter while studying history is too be judgmental and or too pile to much importance or praise on some one the brutal truth is some times people do shit outa malice and hate but most times it's outa laziness ignorance or just not being thoughtful enough to see the big picture we see,s us not us and them and them and him her and you no just ones own self but the other thing is kinda like in the highley unhistoriacaly acurate wild Bill movie with Jeff bridges who despite the inaccurate script I thought was a hell of a performance and tottaly entertaining when he,s on his rant about not apologizing or explaining him self to any one that what ever he did he did the best he coukd in what ever situation and hell man that's how all of us are one of my gratest friends is like mine own personal human attack dog and not a purpose thing when mine brother got outa prison he,d whent in barley as an adult to basically get institutionalized and not know or have a clue how,s to live out hear with us me and my brother hell family in general was the first people in his life too look past the prison yard stare and all the b. s. That usually either comes or least ways is associated with that but we,s the first to take him at face value and to not assume or judge cause of the past or a reputation that in my observations was onley half fairly earnend any way long short of it if I complain too much about say anything/ really anyone well it's outa my hands and I hope they ate there Wheaties cause it's there ass and I would not really want to be them fortunately the learning not to judge and allthough sometimes failling but I'm general achieving also the seeing there side of any given situation and being highley empathic and energy sensitive any way add yo it all but I don't really have anyone other than the world's government to be angry about anymore any way and why one might ask ill just say it cause the evil soulless and unaprecieative we build there world me vary literly for like 30 freaking years now through the sun the snow humidity rain and all kinda weather and behind are backs they call us the American sheepal why during the covid shizen I wore a mask the first couple of months than was like nope iam American I refuse to be scared or shaken by you're bullshit propaganda I dint trust you're drugs and i know ypure motives are garbage it was a hole farce test to see hiw miny us Americans are still wolves crows and hawks and how miny are sheep cows and mice I right this cause you project at least without words a real sense of decency a curiosity for the actual truth not just one party,s written bullshit to make them selves seam better and so,s they have a lie to rap up in ans sleep at night instead of the truth that there all parasites and we the people haven't needed them for decades any wayi wrong or right feel that you're American enough as well as a student of life ( education didn't stop at the end of school ) it just kicked the overdrive gear in is all and dang it you seam like a cat I coukd chill with and either history nerd out or bust out the guitars and all that you seam like a strait up right on guy and thank you for you're time and energy you're love of the truth and a good understandable presentation and the hours and hours of joy you've brought me and us other history nerd types so thank you salute keep on kicking ass and digging for the truth like you do now onley if we coukd get the news to actually do that again like ohh once upon a time long gone any way peace keep on kicking ass brother you rock

I know it wasnt York. My brother has a hard time waking early. The simplest explanation is usually the correct one. Great channel. I heard you quoted on a podcast the other day. I felt in the know.

Once you try applying modern life and it's social norms, to historical life, you've lost the plot completely.

Yep old whistle britches is like a crab. Always on the b@))

A dog named semen 😂

Great podcast, but stop with the struggle session about slavery.

Are you still working in manufacturing? I hope you can quit and do the podcast full time.

Why are you viewing history through the moral eyes of a man who lives in the 21st century. The entire world practiced slavery in 1803.. and you would have been right there with them.

Chinook - shin-uhk not chin-ook, for what it's worth that's how it was pronounced where I grew up on the Yakama rez. Love your channel, thank you for the content!
