The Most Dangerous Town in the West

Why Is This Not a Movie? - A podcast by Mike Vago

Categories:

In the 1870s, traveling by train through Palisade, Nevada was a heart-stopping experience. It was a Wild West hive of scum and villainy, with a constant tumult of fistfights, gunfights, and robberies in broad daylight. Except it was all fake — a show put on by the townspeople because they were bored and thought it would be funny. No guest this week, as we're adjusting the format — we'll continue to do longer episodes with a guest every other week, but we'll alternate with shorter, just-me episodes, as now that people are gradually re-entering society, I have less time to edit the longer episodes, and I have fewer guests who are stuck at home dying to talk about movies.
