Talking Texas History
Talking Texas History explores Texas history before and beyond the Alamo. Hosted by Scott Sosebee and Gene Preuss, we talk with folks with a passion for Texas history, teach it, write it, support it, and with some who’ve made it. Our guests will include people who make Texas history accessible to the public (including academic historians, public historians, archivists, living history practitioners, and history enthusiasts) and will discuss new work, research, and our passion for local history.
