Wie muss eine Frau beschaffen sein, die an der Seite Doc Hollidays, eines der berühmtesten Revolverhelden des wilden Westens, überleben will? Hart? Trinkfest? Willensstark? Klug?All diese Eigenschaften treffen auf Katharina Horony ohne Zweifel zu. Schon früh wird die aus Österreich-Ungarn stammende junge Frau mit der vollen Härte einer Gesellschaft konfrontiert, die kaum die ihre ist. Als Prostituierte, Saloontänzerin und Reinigungskraft fristet sie ein tristes Dasein. Immer weiter driftet sie nach Westen ab, in jenen Teil der vereinigten Staaten, der noch in den 1880er Jahren als wild und gefährlich gilt. Doch auch die junge Dame aus gutem Hause verändert sich. Aus Katharina Horony wird Big Nose Kate, die ein Leben an der Seite von Revolverhelden und Berufsspielern führt. Als Teil einer überaus rauen Gesellschaft gelingt es ihr, nicht nur zu überleben, sondern auch ihre eigenen Regeln aufstellen. Noch heute erscheint Kate in den USA als Legende. Höre hier ihre bewegte Geschichte.

This week, we discuss the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, the 1881 confrontation between the Earp brothers, Doc Holiday, and the Cowboys in the town of tombstone, AZ.

Mel Heim & Ben Falcone, CEO & Partner respectively behind Big Nose Kate Western Whiskey, dive into the history and creation of both the liquid and the brand bearing Kate's name, uncovering how the makers draw from both stories of the wild west frontier and modern distilling techniques to create a product that's as unique as its namesake

Send us a textDiscover the untamed spirit of the Wild West as Mike King takes us on an exhilarating ride through the life of the infamous Doc Holliday. From his early days in Georgia as a dignified dentist to becoming a feared and notorious figure in the American frontier, Holliday's journey is anything but ordinary. Narrated by the talented Brad Smalley we explore a youthful incident that laid bare the racial tensions of the era and propelled him towards his fate in the sun-baked lands of Dallas, Texas, where he hoped the climate might mend his ailing health. With multiple sources at hand, we uncover the nuances of Holliday's character—a blend of southern charm and reckless abandon that left an indelible mark on history.The stakes rise as we recount the thrilling race day drama under a military post, where Holliday's threat for Sugarfoot to win or else, becomes the center of attention. The narrative then leads us to Holliday's return to Fort Griffin, where a contentious encounter at the gambling table between Holliday and Ed Bailey unfolds. The blurred lines between myth and reality add intrigue, as we question the authenticity of tales that have become legendary. The bond between Holliday and Big Nose Kate emerges as a testament to loyalty and survival amid the chaos, highlighted by her daring rescue of her lover, Doc Holliday from a lynch mob. Don't miss this compelling episode that captures the essence of a man whose legacy echoes across the Wild West.Support the show

Happy Spooky Wednesday, dears! We've got extraterrestrials and the Wild Wild West for you this week. Kala talks about former United States President Jimmy Carter's UFO experience, as well as the stories from past US presidents. Is the government really hiding something? If so, they don't seem to be hiding it very well. Then Brittany covers Big Nose Kate's Saloon in Tombstone, Arizona. Neither host is particularly thrilled about the description Kate has been given, but we both agree that Kate has lived an eventful and interesting life. Her life was so wild that it seems it couldn't be contained within our mortal plane, because she (and some friends) have decided to stick around and bother poor service workers even after death.

Tonight, we sit down with my special guest author and researcher Chris Enss who is an amazing researcher on the history of the Old West and she shares the story of the legendary Doc Holiday's love interest Mary Kate Cummings aka Big Nose Kate and her life during the Wild West.     *2020 Will Rogers Medallion Award Winner (Western Biographies)*   Doc Holliday's paramour Big Nose Kate could never get a publisher to give her the big bucks she demanded to tell the story of her life, but that didn't mean she didn't collect material she wanted to use in a biography. Over the fifty years Mary Kate Cummings, alias Big Nose Kate, traversed the West she saved letters from her family, musings she had written about her love interests, and life with the notorious John Henry Holliday. Using rare, never before published material Big Nose Kate stock-piled in anticipation of writing the tale of her days on the Wild Frontier, the definitive book about the famous soiled dove will finally be told.   Kate claims to have witnessed the Gunfight at the OK Corral and exchanged words with the likes of Wyatt Earp and Josephine Marcus. There's no doubt she embellished her adventures, but that doesn't take away from their historical importance. She was a controversial figure in a rough and rowdy territory. What she witnessed, the lifestyle she led, and the influential western people she met are fascinating and represent a time period much romanticized.Follow Our Other ShowsFollow UFO WitnessesFollow Crime Watch WeeklyFollow Paranormal FearsFollow Seven: Disturbing Chronicle StoriesJoin our Patreon for ad-free listening and more bonus content.Follow us on Instagram @mysteriousradioFollow us on TikTok mysteriousradioTikTok Follow us on Twitter @mysteriousradio Follow us on Pinterest pinterest.com/mysteriousradio Like us on Facebook Facebook.com/mysteriousradio

As acclaimed authors Bob Boze Bell and Jana Bommersbach write, “We know all about the bandits and bad boys, the gunfighters and goons, but not the women who held it all together with grit and spit. The reality is plain: there never would have been a settled West without the women—Native and Mexican women here first; Black and White women who followed—all settling the vast, unknown and scary lands beyond the Mississippi River. But they've never gotten their due. If they're mentioned at all, it's as whores or tough-living Calamity Janes. Here's the good news: You don't have to dig deep to find remarkable stories of the remarkable women of the West—you just have to care enough to dig.” Bob and Jana join Russell and Alan to talk about what they found on their literary dig and how it eventually turned into their new book “Hellraisers & Trailblazers: The Real Women of the Wild West.”

She was known in Tombstone as Big Nose Kate, the common-law wife of Doc Holliday, and at the time of the legendary shootout at the OK Corral in 1881 she was sharing a second floor room with Doc Holiday at Fly's Boarding House- one of the buildings overlooking the vacant lot near the corral where the shootings took place. And she was right there at the window with a front row seat. She wasn't called later as a witness and no one knew she had seen it all until nearly 60 years later when she wrote a letter- one of those letters that historians live to discover.

On this episode of The Sofa King Podcast, we travel back to cowboy days and talk about the violent gentleman, Doc Holliday. Though it’s hard to sift through the tall tales of the Old West, historical evidence proves that Holliday killed dozens of men after drunken fights at the poker table, and that was years after a 6 month death sentence due to his horrible tuberculosis. Born John Henry Holliday, Doc Holliday was born in 1851 in Griffin Georgia. He was born to upper class southern elite, and his education, languages, speech, and demeanor proved it. He became a dentist after his mother and adopted brother died of consumption, and he was diagnosed to have TB himself at age 23. Given only 6 months to live, he headed west to drier climates to try and extend that life. Out west, he tried to do dental work, but his horrible coughing fits kept him from practicing medicine. His alternative? Becoming a professional gambler. Like you do. Doc Holliday started to gamble and deal cards at lawless saloons through the west. In each city, he seemed to run afoul with a loud-mouthed local, shoot him dead in the street, and run away to escape the frontier justice of small town lynch mobs. Living this wild life of whiskey and cards, he came to befriend both the lawman Wyatt Earp and the hooker Big Nose Kate. He helped Earp bring in some of the worst criminals, and he had a sometimes violent on again off again relationship with Kate. She broke him out of prison. And Holliday kept Earp from getting his head blown off. They were all close friends. Eventually, they all found their way to Tombstone where the events of the OK Corral took place. We can’t help but talk about the movie Tombstone and Val Kilmer’s portrayal of this famous southern gun slinger. Was it accurate? How many people did Holliday kill at the OK Corral? How did this outlaw gunslinger befriend Earp, a federal marshal? How did Doc Holliday end up living a decade past his death sentence, all while having shootouts, knife fights, and running from torch wielding mobs? He was a true badass. Listen, laugh, learn.

Episode 76: Tombstone Ghost Town Jay walks us through one of the most famous locations of the Wild, Wild West: Tombstone. 1. Tombstone is a historic city in Arizona, founded in 1879 by prospector Ed Schieffelin. (Silver Mining!) 2. Its population grew from 100 to around 14,000 in less than seven years. (It’s best known as the site of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral!) 3. A woman in a long white dress has also been spied on Tombstone streets. (Seamstress!) 4. Big Nose Kate’s Saloon. (That’s what it’s really called. Oh, And it’s haunted.) 5. The Birdcage is reputed to be one of the most haunted places in Tombstone: allegedly continuing to host as many as 31 ghosts. (SNEAK PEEK: two prostitutes got into a brawl, and one got the upper hand by repeatedly stabbing the other in her chest with the sharp heel of her stiletto.) Sweet Dreams XOXOZzzzzzzz.

They say the most successful relationships happen with the couple share a common interest. Doc Holliday was a quick tempered, hair triggered, card hustler in the old west. His common law bride shared many of these qualities. In this episode, we'll learn about the woman behind one of the west's most legendary figures. The story of Big Nose Kate is every bit as legendary. No matter how volatile their love life was, what some people may do for love will surprise you.

Batman and Baby wonder about The Rooster, Johnny Wacko and Big Nose Kate... oh yeah, and there's also a story about the crack-head and the speaker... and the botched suicide attempt... and an update on the racing stripe.
