This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.comNancy and Sarah chat with Bryan Burrough, author of Gunfighters: How Texas Made the West Wild. Bloody history is something of a specialty for Burrough, a former Vanity Fair scribe whose other (great) books include Days of Rage, about violent radical movements of the ‘70s, Public Enemies, about the ‘30s crime wave, and Forget the Alamo, about, well, trying to remember that famous Texas showdown in a more accurate light. Their conversation takes place several days after a shooter opened fire at a Minneapolis church, killing two children and injuring many more. Online discourse has yo-yo'ed from gun control to trans issues to the problem of marijuana, but America's history of violence goes much deeper than culture-war issues. We're a country forged in guns, whether we like it or not.Burrough talks about the psychopaths, swindlers, and survivors who shaped the frontier and went down in pop-culture history: Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Butch Cassidy, Wyatt Earp. We also talk Westerns: What's his take on Tombstone? Deadwood? And which critically acclaimed Western movie made Bryan and Sarah bored out of their skulls? (Hint: It stars Brad Pitt.)For a conversation ostensibly about the Old West, there's an awful lot of talk about modern movies, books, and the craft of writing.Also discussed:* Sarah says: The Old West = BORING!* Sam Colt's pistol was initially a flop* Honor culture, explained* Why did Bob Dylan add a “g” to John Wesley Hardin?* Doc Holliday was a … dentist in Dallas?* “A man with that great equalizer: a gun.”* Billy the Kid, the “most ambivalent” of the Old West gunfighters* “Texans. We have a lot to answer for.”* Lawlessness can be thrilling* Wild Bill Hickok, the greatest fraud of the Old West* Unforgiven is the ultimate anti-Western* Comanches were not messing around* When “whore” was a job description* Jesse James, the first celebrity criminal* Lonesome Dove is Texans' War and Peace* A big gush of love for author Beverly Lowry* Sarah vs. Nancy on the movie Tree of Life: Pistols at dawn! * The postpartum aimlessness that comes with finishing a book* Remembering actor Graham GreeneAlso, Nancy, Sarah and Bryan choose the Old West characters they'd most like to be (guess who chose “whore”?), the frontier's go-to slur, and much more!REMINDER!

Tonight, we'll read the opening to “The Moon Maid”, a fantasy novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs and published in 1926. This novel constitutes a future history, and in it Burroughs' vision of what the 20th century held in store for humanity, which could be considered a kind of retroactive alternate history. In Burroughs's vision, in 1967 the planetary rulers send a first manned spacecraft to the Moon—coinciding very near to the ac he Apollo 11 Moon landing. Of course, in Burrough's version, the moon turns out to be teeming with life. Burroughs is best known for his creation of Tarzan and the Barsoom series set on Mars, and The Moon Maid falls into that same interplanetary tradition, blending high adventure with speculative science. The novel imagines a Hollow Moon inhabited by intelligent civilizations, including the Va-Gas, a centaur-like warrior race, and the more advanced yet decadent U-gas. It also links to other books in what became a loosely connected trilogy—followed by The Moon Men and The Red Hawk—in which themes of empire, resistance, and rebirth play out across centuries. The story begins with a framing device—common in Burroughs's work—where a manuscript or oral account is “discovered” and passed along to the reader, granting it a sense of mythical authenticity. Through this lens, we are introduced to Julian 5th, a descendant in a long line of Julians who would come to play a pivotal role in the history of Earth, the Moon, and even future interplanetary relations. - read by 'N' - Learn more about your ad choices.

As the Talking Heads once nearly sang: “And may find yourself beamed up into a spacecraft. And you may find yourself pretending to be the leader of Earth. And you may find yourself hanging out with weird and wonderful beings from outer-space, going up against intergalactic warlords and maybe learning a thing or two about belonging along the way.” Yes, it's an Elio special on today's Script Apart, as we venture across the cosmos with the Pixar film's co-directors, Domee Shi and Madeline Sharafian. Elio tells the story of a child who longs to be abducted by aliens. Still reeling from the loss of his parents and struggling to adjust to living with his well-meaing aunt, the character embarks on an adventure that changes how he sees life back on Earth. It was written by Julia Cho, Mark Hammer and Mike Jones, from a story by Madeline, Domee and Adrian Molina. Domee you may know as the director of Turning Red, which we covered on this show in 2022. Madeline, meanwhile, is the director behind Burrough, a beautiful Pixar short film from a couple of years ago (this is her first feature). In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, we discuss initial drafts of this story in which Olga was Elio's mother, rather than his aunt. I ask about how the film grapples with loneliness; the process of creating the magical worlds that Pixar movies so often invite filmgoers into, whether that's Monstropolis or Coco's Land of the Dead; and of course, the meaning of that Carl Sagan speech asking “Are we alone?” that close the film.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

There, however, Tarzan gains new allies in the panther Sheeta and the ape Akut, together with Akut's band.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/librivox1/support

Ethan T. Burroughs's Messianic Reveal narrates the story of a young man who seeks to serve his country, and in so doing, he follows his instincts into a labyrinth of conspiracies. The novel launches from and connects to real events and real people: the 1979 siege of Mecca, Osama Bin Laden's brother, Ayatollah Khomeini's temporary residences in France and Iraq, and so on.Listen to this fascinating discussion with Burrough in which we discuss the contents of his book, that are based on real events that are not talked about often due to their sensitive political and religious nature. Burrough has dedicated much of the last two decades to exploring the Middle East and slowly unraveling its mysteries. His encounters have taken him to Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Israel, and the Palestinian Territories, where he has studied the history, faith, cuisine, language, and culture of the lands which continue to grab our headlines as we search for an elusive peace. He is a U.S. Army veteran and political consultant.Connect with me:

Claudia Burrough started running regularly after attending Bushy parkrun as part of a 'This Girl Can' event - but she didn't particularly like it. Over the next year she attended the 5k run every week, gradually improving her time. But it was only when unsteadiness in her legs meant she had to start using crutches, that she began to enjoy the famed parkrun community spirit. As her condition deteriorated, she continued to go to parkrun, eventually having to swap her crutches for a wheelchair. Undaunted, Claudia has gone on to embrace a new journey, one that involved the heat and hills of the Comrades Ultra, as well as a London Marathon experience that she calls the best day of her life.

Tonight, we'll read the opening to “The Moon Maid”, a fantasy novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs and published in 1926. This novel constitutes a future history, and in it Burroughs' vision of what the 20th century held in store for humanity, which could be considered a kind of retroactive alternate history. In Burroughs's vision, in 1967 the planetary rulers send a first manned spacecraft to the Moon—coinciding very near to the actual 1969 date of the Apollo 11 Moon landing. Of course, in Burrough's version, the moon turns out to be teeming with life. This is the second time Snoozecast has featured early science fiction from Burroughs.

My guest today is our own Unlovely Truth Tribe chaplain, Lori Prather. We're going to get her take on bad people blending in at church and ways to reach out to people that a lot of churches choose to ignore. In 2005, the FBI held a symposium in San Antonio, Texas, where they dropped some bombshell information. According to their research, the majority of serial killers are not the loners or misfits we tend to think they are. In fact, they're hiding in plain sight, blending right in. You might even know one. Author Bryan Burrough hadn't known about his schoolmate Danny Corwin's multiple murders until they were both well into middle age. He became obsessed with understanding why Danny nearly killed a girl in Temple, Texas, when he was in 10th grade. Burrough also wanted to know why Danny Corwin's family, the local Presbyterian Church they attended, the mayor, and local newspaper all worked so hard to keep Danny's activities a secret.
