Johnson County Sheriff | The Untold Story of Frank Canton

[@LauseMarkA]

Bravo! Another superb episode. Owen Wister was hosted by the cattle growers when he went to Wyoming. Paradoxically, though, his model for "the Virginian" was said to be Jack Flagg, a native West Virginian who was a leader of the local cowboy strike, which was a prelude to the Johnson County War in which Flagg was one of the leaders and its first historian. A wonderful, if rather depressing chapter in the history of the West.

Ah cool, hadn't heard that. I mention Flagg briefly on this episode and I'll also bring him up on the next. He's a guy I made a mental note to learn more about.

Woot. Always a great start to the day when I gotta fresh episode to listen too. Thx Josh!

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

Thank YOU

[@michaeltwowolves3055]

[@lics01]

Powder River! Let 'er buck! Also... Uintah, pronounced. You-IN-ta Thanks for all your content!

[@kcstafford2784]

Love you throwing in the vampire tale..spicy 🔥

[@catholiccrusader5328]

Love you show as always. Could you do all of us a favor? Rev. De Smet was one of the toughest men in the West. This guy beat up a bear that attacked him, stomped nearly to death an Indian chief, and did a bunch of other heroics. In short De Smet was a clerical badass. Josh again could you PLEASE do a show on Padre De Smet?

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

Yes!

[@catholiccrusader5328]

Thank,s Josh.

[@joeyz5577]

[@BamaFanUSMC]

Josh, your voice is a perfect match with Danny McBride... 😂. You even have the same pitch and delivery. That's awesome 😎

[@haroldvoss5886]

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

[@johnnieplageman9145]

Awesome episode as always sir! May I suggest an episode on the King Ranch?!

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

You may. I hope to do one in the future.

[@johnnieplageman9145]

Thank you sir, much appreciated!

[@dubyacwh7978]

Another great episode really looking forward to the next episode I’ve always been interested in the Johnson County wars as well as the Lincoln County wars

[@Zionist_Eternal]

About time! Goodness!

[@tomrubottom6900]

I am from Johnson County Wyoming. I know all about Frank Canton.

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

Awesome

[@williamemerson1799]

I don't know about the cattle rustlin but Cattle Kate had the epic proportions for sure.

[@TsmithJustin]

Mas por favor. Gracias.

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

Si

[@randysmith4081]

Evidently, Frank was a baaad dude that nobody messed with.

[@williamemerson1799]

I can see that having musical instruments in the old west would be beneficial if you were a vampire.👀

[@johnnieplageman9145]

I am amazed and shocked that Brushy Bill hadn’t made a claim to be in the middle of this situation 😂

[@johnnieplageman9145]

@Bobby Blazer I will take that with a grain of salt coming from someone who can’t seem to spell YOUR correctly.

[@johnnieplageman9145]

@Bobby Blazer Do you own a pistol? If so, please do the world a favor and use it on yourself.

[@kathleencalhoun2225]

I have never of this guy before nor of some of those others you mentioned. I can't speculate on why Canton went out at night other than to say that's when the criminals were most active and that Canton was conducting some illegitimate business. Wearing dark glasses during times when the sun isn't shining indicates a guilty conscience--I don't know whether that's relevant or not to this story. Weird goings on in the Wild West.

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

Kathleen did you listen to part 1?

[@KurtOnoIR]

Who was Jim "killer" Miller? I heard he said let er rip before he was hanged by a lynch mob.

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

I did an episode on him a long time ago...it's on patreon

[@KurtOnoIR]

@@WildWestExtravaganza oh man!

[@dannysimmons3167]

I’d say frank let him go

[@samwalker1461]

East Texas moderater war? EPISODE?

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

I'm sorry, what?

[@McGather]

[@WildWestExtravaganza]

[@williamemerson1799]

Why kill Kate n Jim? Control.....same thing going on today. Sorry.
