Short Format Daily Radio Show
February 2008**
 If you aren't familiar with the radio show, you can hear one of the twenty-one shows that we are airing for the month of February right now. Just click on the title "Pat Garrett" and be taken back to the Old West. It has been said of the show that the listener can actually "feel the leather and smell the gun smoke." Incidentally, all of the stories take place in the month in which they are aired.
**These shows will be available for sale in CD format as soon as the month is over.
If you wish to purchase past Daily shows (in a monthly format) click HERE for more information.
The January 2008 Daily radio CD is now available!
The February line-up:
GODDARD STATION KILLING – After killing two people in Phoenix, Arizona, two Mexicans escape to Mexico. It will intrigue you how they were captured.
BELLE STARR – Born Myra Maybelle Shirley, this “Bandit Queen” choose the wrong man time and time again.
THEY AVOIDED BEING HANGED – The wife of the man killed stopped a lynching in its tracks. But not in the way you may think.
DALTON’S FIRST TRAIN ROBBERY – The first train robbery committed by the Dalton Brothers was such a fiasco that they should have known not to continue as outlaws.
CHARLES SIRINGO – Like a bulldog unwilling to let go, Siringo perused Butch Cassidy until left to South America.
ABILENE, KANSAS – Abilene was the king of the cattle towns, until they told the cattlemen and cowboys not to come back.
DAWES SEVERALTY ACT – Here is another instance where the U.S. government, in its attempt to help the Indian, only created a bigger problem.
JOHN S. FORD – Texas Ranger, Ford, was involved in the first incident where we used a landing craft to deliver men into a foreign country.
DONRAVEN – Donraven is just one more man whose life was changed by his visit to Yellowstone.
ARIZONA RANGERS – Although they aren’t as well known as the Texas Rangers, the Arizona Rangers were even more important to the future of their state.
JOHN SLAUGHTER – Although he was only 5’ 3” tall, Slaughter had the heart of a giant.
SILVER DOLLARS MADE LEGAL – Following the “Crime of ‘73” when the government stopped producing silver coins, the government started using silver again, on a limited basis.
JOHN TUNSTALL – The death of Tunstall was the spark lighting the fuse that was to become the Lincoln County War.
ALBERT SIEBER – Although he wasn’t as well known as some Army scouts, Al Sieber was probably the best.
HENRY STARR I & II – Although not as well known as other outlaws, Henry robbed more banks than any other outlaw.
ETTA PLACE – We know that Etta Place was the girlfriend of the Sundance Kid, but that’s about all we know for sure.
CYNTHIA ANN PARKER – Kidnapped as a child by the Comanche, she was later re-kidnapped by Texas Rangers. Neither kidnapping was to her liking.
LUKE SHORT – Were it not for a self-defense killing in early 1881, Luke Short would probably have been at the O.K. Corral shootout next to Wyatt Earp.
THE MYSTERIOUS KID – Although he was acquitted for killing a Deputy Sheriff, The Mysterious Kid mysteriously continued his outlaw life until it was ended with a lynching.
PAT GARRETT – After killing Billy the Kid, Garret’s life turned for the worse, even to the point of its end. |
