National Geographic, the iconic editorial magazine brand founded in the United States in 1888, extends beyond its products.
In this episode, host André Brathwaite explores the National Geographic Society and the story of the brand’s founders, 33 prominent explorers, scientists, and scholars, whose passion for exploration helped shape a brand that grew beyond the products it made to create a community and spaces for people to pursue an interest in nature, science, and space.
