The Susquehanna Scout is a podcast that explores the Susquehanna River and its ripple effects across Pennsylvania and beyond. The river is often seen as a dividing line, but we see the Susquehanna as a topic of common ground and conversation.

From its fascinating history as one of the oldest waterways in the world, to stories about today’s river towns and residents, nature, recreation, science and the environment, the Susquehanna Scout is your link to meaningful, thoughtful and fun conversations about the Susquehanna River.

Hosted by Karen Hendricks. A production of WITF, providing public media to Central Pennsylvania, based in Harrisburg.

    Welcome to Susquehanna Scout, a podcast exploring the Susquehanna River and the people, places, and issues connected to it across Central Pennsylvania and beyond.

    The Susquehanna has shaped our region for centuries. It provides drinking water, powers local economies, supports recreation, and flows through the history and daily lives of the communities along its 444-mile course. Each episode explores how the river influences our environment, our communities, and the future of the Chesapeake Bay.

    Hosted by journalist Karen Hendricks and produced by WITF, Susquehanna Scout brings you stories about conservation, history, recreation, and the people working to protect and celebrate one of Pennsylvania's greatest natural resources.
