Press Play on Schoharie County

Four podcasts. One county. Real voices straight from the people who make Schoharie County what it is. Press play.

The best thing about Schoharie County has never been something a brochure could fully capture. It’s the man who has spent a lifetime studying trees that have stood for centuries, still finding new reasons to look up. The eagle spotter who knows exactly which bend in the river to watch at dusk. The ghost stories that have been rattling around the Old Stone Fort for two centuries, told best after dark. The living culture at the Iroquois Indian Museum, where the history isn’t behind glass. These are their stories, unscripted, unfiltered, and absolutely worth your time.

After Dark
& Wild

Most travelers leave just as this world is waking up. This one is for the others. The night hikers, the stargazers, the ghost chasers. Standing beneath the rush of bat wings, tracking the pulse of fireflies, staring into the glowing eyes of an owl, listening for an echo from the past near the haunted stones. This is a different realm. The wild is waiting. Keep your eyes wide and your footsteps light. See you under the moon.
