Historicool Episode 24 - Lawmen of the West
Tuesday, 5 December, 2017
Historicool is a podcast which delves into some of history's interesting figures and events. Your hosts, Matt Nelson and Wayne Bridgman will seek to bring these to life for you, the fascinated listener, with interesting facts and a dose of mischievous humour. This episode introduces us to the proud and hard rods of justice of the Wild West. Black Bart, the Dalton Gang, and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid all were famous for their daring robberies and general lawnessness. They could take entire fortunes from banks that had slightly less security than a modern hot dog stand. And why not? Lawlessness ruled didn't it? Vaults didn't exist, and criminals didn't give a hot dang (a dang is actually worse than a damn). Some pretty tough hobres were neded to bring thse ruthless perps to justice. Let's meet some of them.
