Alaska is a HUGE state! But did you know that a unique combination of geographic position, climate change, and natural resources also makes it one of the most important states in the United States? While plenty of other states can argue for that crown, Alaska is definitely in a unique position relative to the rest of the country. In this episode, Geoff and and Hunter break down the history of Alaska, why it's so important, how the U.S. acquired it and what the future might hold.
