Stories Bigger Than Texas: The Alamo Podcast
Episode 100: The Texas Centennial
 
It’s a big day for us at the Alamo Podcast. Not only are we celebrating our two-year anniversary – it's our 100th episode. We are marking the occasion with a special look at the Texas Centennial.

We reveal how the Lone Star State celebrated 100 years of independence, where on Alamo grounds you’ll see symbols of the milestone, and the efforts in Dallas to preserve that critical first century of Texas history. Featuring the Alamo's Senior Historian Ernesto Rodriguez and the Dallas Historical Society's Director of Education David Lee.
