Soon, pushcarts popped up around the city and country during the summer months selling the portable treats.

In this episode, Markely takes a deep dive into some of Deadwood's fascinating history, which he also writes about in his book “Wild Bill Hickok and Buffalo Bill Cody: Plainsmen of the Legendary West” and his novel “Deadwood Dead Men.” A special thank you to western singer-songwriter Greg Hager for sharing his song “Eights and Aces,” a story based on the infamous Dead Man's Hand card game.

"I believe in God's purpose. Not knowing it, I ask him, moving in me, to allow me to see his will. I ask him, moving in others, to allow them to see it."Jack McCall might have managed to murder Wild Bill Hickok, but his escape was less than successful. The death of the closest thing Deadwood had to a hero has left the settlement confused and in a bind: justice should be delivered, but future plans require that justice to be something less than satisfying. If the trial results in a sentence or punishment, Al's visions of vipers would seem to be more and more likely. When everything some seek to gain could vanish into smoke, others who have lost might have to find other ways to ease their pain.In this episode of the podcast, Wes and Clay discuss "The Trial of Jack McCall" and how the show handles its most satirical content yet.

Welcome to this episode of The Radio Vagabond, where I continue my road trip in the old west of the USA. We started in Billings, Montana, went to Yellowstone, and east to Devil's Tower in Wyoming. And in this one, I've driven an hour further east to a place with a Wild West History – and a place that is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West.  My name is Palle Bo. Welcome to f*ing Deadwood… as they say in the TV series. BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA I'm in The Black Hills, a range of South Dakota mountains known for their stunning natural beauty and rich history. The hills are home to several national parks and monuments, including Mount Rushmore National Memorial, with the iconic carved faces of four American Presidents, and also Badlands National Park, which features unique geological formations and diverse wildlife. More on both of these a bit later.  The Black Hills are also an important cultural and spiritual center for several Native American tribes, including the Lakota and the Cheyenne. In the late 1800s, the Black Hills were the site of the famous Black Hills Gold Rush, which brought thousands of settlers to the area in search of riches.  THE GOLD RUSH PUT THIS PLACE ON THE MAP And we start in a small town in South Dakota that was a big part of this Gold Rush and so uniquely the old Wild West that it became the location and name of a TV series and a movie.  I'm in Deadwood, South Dakota, a town with a rich and wild history that makes it one of the unique places in the United States. Deadwood attracted some of the most famous figures of its time, including Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane.  Today, the town has embraced its history, with many original buildings still standing and used as hotels, restaurants, casinos, and museums. And I start my visit to Deadwood by going to one of these museums.  ADAMS MUSEUM The Adams Museum is the oldest in The Black Hills, and I go to learn more about the rich history of Deadwood. In 1930 pioneer businessman W.E. Adams founded the Adams Museum right here in Deadwood to preserve and display the history of the Black Hills.  He donated the building to the City of Deadwood. Inside, I speak to Visitor Services Associate at the museum, Diane.  "The Gold Rush attracted many people here, and at the time there were 5,000 people living here. Today only around 1,200."   Deadwood was founded during the Black Hills Gold Rush of 1875, and it quickly became one of the most dangerous and lawless towns in the American West. Lots of legendary figures used to hang out here, and let me fill you in on two of the most well-known. WILD BILL HICKOK AND CALAMITY JANE  Wild Bill Hickok was a legendary gunslinger and lawman of the American West, and his death in Deadwood, South Dakota, is one of the most famous events in the history of the Wild West. Hickok arrived in Deadwood in the summer of 1876, and he quickly became one of the most recognizable figures in town. He was known for his gun skills and reputation as a lawman, and he has often seen playing cards in local saloons. His friend, Calamity Jane was another famous figure of the American West who called Deadwood home. She was known for her rough-and-tumble lifestyle and was a skilled marksman, but she is best remembered for her association with Wild Bill Hickok.  Calamity Jane claimed to have been married to Wild Bill, but no historical evidence supports this claim. Nevertheless, she remained a popular figure in Deadwood and was known for her wild and adventurous spirit.  Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane represent the spirit of adventure, the lawlessness of the frontier, and a big part of the rich history of Deadwood. MAIN STREET DEADWOOD  I'm taking a stroll down Main Street. In the Deadwood series, this street was dusty in the sun and muddy when it's been raining. Now the street is paved, and no horses are tied outside the saloons. And it doesn't smell of horse manure and sweaty cowboys. It's still got that iconic Wild West look feel.  It's incredible to think about all the stories and legends created in this small town. Walking the streets of Deadwood, I can feel the energy of the past and the spirit of the wild west. It's like stepping back to a place where gunslingers, gamblers, and gold miners roamed the streets.  I will explore some of these historic sites Diane told me about at the museum, and my first stop is the saloon where Wild Bill played his last hand of poker.  WILD BILL GOT SHOT HERE PLAYING POKER On August 2, 1876, Wild Bill was playing a game of poker at Nuttal & Mann's Saloon (Saloon no. 10), when he was approached by a stranger named Jack McCall.  Wild Bill, with his long hair and iconic mustache, was sitting with his back to the door, and McCall came through the door, drew his gun, and shot Wild Bill in the back of the head, killing him instantly. It was later discovered that McCall was seeking revenge for killing his brother, and he claimed that Wild Bill was responsible. The death of Wild Bill Hickok shocked the people of Deadwood, and it quickly became a part of the town's folklore.  Hickok's death remains one of the most famous events in the history of the American West, and it's a testament to the lawlessness and violence of the frontier. Although he was known for his skills as a gunslinger, Wild Bill Hickok will always be remembered as one of the most legendary figures of the Wild West. She lived on for 26 years after Wild Bill got killed, and today, their graves can be found side by side in Mount Moriah Cemetery right here in Deadwood. The signs at the cemetery read: James Butler Hickok, alias "Wild Bill." Born May 27, 1837. Died August 2, 1887. Victim of the assassin Jack McCall. Martha Jane Burke, alias "Calamity Jane." Born May 1, 1851. Died August 1, 1903. Her dying request: "Bury me beside Wild Bill". Even though they are both long gone, their stories continue to captivate people worldwide, and their grave sites are now popular tourist attractions. THE GHOSTS OF DEADWOOD With such a rich history and the lawlessness of many people being killed in these streets and saloons, it's no surprise that many people believe that Deadwood also is home to many ghost stories. One of the most famous ghost stories in Deadwood is that of Wild Bill Hickok, and inside Saloon No 10, I've just seen the chair he was sitting in and in a frame the playing cards he was holding in the poker game – the so-called "Dead Man's Hand."  And it is said that his spirit still haunts the town and that, on occasion, visitors to Deadwood have reported seeing his ghostly figure wandering the streets at night. Some had even claimed to have seen him playing cards in local saloons, just as he was when he was alive. Another famous ghost in Deadwood is that of Calamity Jane. She is said to haunt the town, and visitors to the cemetery where she is buried, have reported seeing her ghostly figure wandering the grounds. Some have even claimed to have heard her ghostly laughter or the sound of her spurs clanging against the hard ground. But there are also several other ghost stories associated with Deadwood. The Bullock Hotel, for example, is said to be haunted by the ghost of former owner Seth Bullock, who is said to still walk the halls of the hotel. And the Bella Union Saloon is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman who died in a fire there many years ago. And then, the place I'm heading to now: The Fairmont Hotel. It is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West and the site of one of the most popular ghost tours in the area. The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a guided tour that takes visitors through the hotel's dark and creepy halls, exploring its haunted history and sharing tales of the spirits that are said to haunt the property. Inside I meet George, who can tell me more about this place. GEORGE SAW AND HEARD GHOSTS According to local legend, the Fairmont Hotel is home to several ghostly entities, including the spirit of a former hotel employee who died on the job and the ghosts of several former guests who never checked out. Some people have reported seeing ghosts wandering the halls or hearing strange noises coming from empty rooms, and the hotel staff has even reported seeing objects move on their own or hearing footsteps when no one is there. "I didn't believe in ghosts before I got here but I've seen two ghosts in the year and a half, I've been here. I was working upstairs, I saw a guy, dressed in black walk into a room. I went down to chase him, but he wasn't there. I also built a shoe rack, and I go up there and the sneakers are all over the place." George also tells me that he's only been afraid one time. "I was sleeping up there one night, and in between our two properties, there was a banging on the wall that shook both places. It was four o'clock in the morning, pitch black, and it was like "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM" about ten times. And that scared me because, I thought, if that ghost can hit the wall like that, he could hit me. And that's the only time, I was really afraid." The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a popular activity for visitors to Deadwood, and it's a great way to experience the town's rich and haunted history. The tour guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the hotel's history and the area. They are sure to keep you entertained as they share the stories and legends of the Fairmont Hotel and its ghostly residents. So, whether you believe in ghosts or not, there's no denying that Deadwood, South Dakota, is a town with a rich and colourful history, and it's a place that is steeped in mystery and intrigue. But what I love about Deadwood is that it's not just a place of the past; it's a thriving community with a bright future. The town has been able to preserve its history while also adapting to the changing times, and it's a great example of how a community can come together to celebrate its heritage while also moving forward. MOUNT RUSHMORE I drove about an hour south to Mount Rushmore, a famous landmark in the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA. It is a massive sculpture that features the faces of four American Presidents carved into the side of a granite mountain: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. Historian Doane Robinson first proposed the idea for Mount Rushmore in the 1920s to attract tourists to South Dakota. In 1927, sculptor Gutzon Borglum was commissioned to carve the faces of the four presidents, and work on the project began in October of that year. It was completed in 1941, after over a decade of work. As you approach this massive sculpture, you can't help but feel a sense of awe. The sheer scale of it is mind-boggling, with the precision of the carving and the sheer determination and hard work that went into this project. To think that this massive carving was created by hand, using only dynamite and chisels, it's just unbelievable.  Today, Mount Rushmore is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, attracting millions of visitors from around the world each year. It is considered a symbol of American democracy and a tribute to the country's rich history. The sculpture also represents the values and ideals that have defined the nation, such as freedom, democracy, and patriotism. In addition to the carving of the four presidents, Mount Rushmore is surrounded by a National Memorial Park that features trails, scenic overlooks, and a visitor center with exhibits about the site's history and the presidents depicted. Visitors can also attend a lighting ceremony in the evening, where the faces of the presidents are illuminated in a patriotic display. THE CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL I know; I rolled that out pretty thick, didn't I? "A symbol to the land of the free and the home of the brave" and all of that. And even before it was finished, some felt that the Mount Rushmore project wasn't that brilliant an idea – when you consider how the land of the free and the home of the brave was stolen from the Native Americans. And just half an hour's drive from Mount Rushmore, another massive rock carving is in progress. So, I drove out to see that one too.  The Crazy Horse Memorial is a monumental sculpture in the Black Hills of South Dakota and dedicated to the Native American warrior Crazy Horse. It is considered to be one of the largest sculptures in the world. The sculpture is being carved out of Thunderhead Mountain, and when completed, we will see Crazy Horse mounted on a horse with his arm outstretched, pointing to his people's land. The Crazy Horse Memorial was commissioned in the 1940s by Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear as a response to the Mount Rushmore project, which he felt was a desecration of sacred land. And The sculpture is being carved by Polish Sculptor, Korczak Ziolkowski and now his family (as he passed away in 1982). He started working on it since 1948, and now, about 75 years later – it is still a work in progress. The Crazy Horse Memorial was envisioned as a way to honor and celebrate Native American culture and history, and to provide a counterpoint to Mount Rushmore. While the two monuments are located relatively close, they have different themes and messages. The two monuments serve as reminders of the complex and often fraught history of the region and the ongoing efforts to reconcile and recognize the diverse cultural perspectives and contributions that have shaped it. BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK The next day, I was heading southeast to Nebraska and passed through Badlands National Park. It's some of the most unique and dramatic landscapes I've ever seen, located in southwestern South Dakota. Badlands is known for its rugged terrain and striking rock formations that consist of layered rock and deep canyons. The landscape is characterized by jagged cliffs, steep mesas, and towering spires formed from sedimentary rock and erosive forces over millions of years. The terrain is barren and arid, with sparse vegetation and a mix of sagebrush, grasses, and cacti. The predominant colors in the landscape are shades of brown and orange, with streaks of green along the intermittent streams. The park is also home to a variety of wildlife, including bison, pronghorns, bighorn sheep, and coyotes. Overall, the Badlands is a stunning and unique natural wonder, and visiting the park is an awe-inspiring experience that is not to be missed. So, I'm glad it was on my way to Nebraska. NEXT STOP NEBRASKA In the next episode, I get to have a farm stay in the rural part of Nebraska. Here, I stay with a family, Mary Lou, John, and their grown-up son, Chris, who take me out on the field checking on their cattle. And then Mary Lou will tell me a story of her Danish ancestor who immigrated from my home country, Denmark when she was just a young girl.  All that, and much more in the next episode of The Radio Vagabond. My name is Palle Bo, and I gotta keep moving. See you.  POEM WRITTEN BY AN AI In South Dakota's Badlands wild,  Palle Bo wandered like a child,  Amazed by landscapes, bold and new,  That stretched out far, and wide, and blue. He heard of Hickok, famed and brave,  Who met his end in a saloon's enclave,  And of Calamity Jane, maybe his wife,  Whose spirit lingers, still to life. At Deadwood, George from the Fairmount Hotel,  Shared tales of ghostly guests as well,  And Palle, with wonder in his heart,  Felt the thrill of the Wild West start. But beyond the tales of days gone by,  Loomed the faces, carved up high,  Of four great presidents, proud and true,  Gazing out over the Badlands, too. With awe and wonder, Palle took it in,  And felt his heart and soul begin,  To truly understand this land,  And all the stories, grand and grand. Now, with sights still fresh in mind,  Palle ventures forth to find,  The farms of Nebraska, far and wide,  Where new adventures yet abide.

She lived on for 26 years after Wild Bill got killed, and today, their graves can be found side by side in Mount Moriah Cemetery right here in Deadwood. The signs at the cemetery read: James Butler Hickok, alias "Wild Bill." Born May 27, 1837. Died August 2, 1887. Victim of the assassin Jack McCall. Martha Jane Burke, alias "Calamity Jane." Born May 1, 1851. Died August 1, 1903. Her dying request: "Bury me beside Wild Bill". Even though they are both long gone, their stories continue to captivate people worldwide, and their grave sites are now popular tourist attractions. THE GHOSTS OF DEADWOOD With such a rich history and the lawlessness of many people being killed in these streets and saloons, it's no surprise that many people believe that Deadwood also is home to many ghost stories. One of the most famous ghost stories in Deadwood is that of Wild Bill Hickok, and inside Saloon No 10, I've just seen the chair he was sitting in and in a frame the playing cards he was holding in the poker game – the so-called "Dead Man's Hand."  And it is said that his spirit still haunts the town and that, on occasion, visitors to Deadwood have reported seeing his ghostly figure wandering the streets at night. Some had even claimed to have seen him playing cards in local saloons, just as he was when he was alive. Another famous ghost in Deadwood is that of Calamity Jane. She is said to haunt the town, and visitors to the cemetery where she is buried, have reported seeing her ghostly figure wandering the grounds. Some have even claimed to have heard her ghostly laughter or the sound of her spurs clanging against the hard ground. But there are also several other ghost stories associated with Deadwood. The Bullock Hotel, for example, is said to be haunted by the ghost of former owner Seth Bullock, who is said to still walk the halls of the hotel. And the Bella Union Saloon is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman who died in a fire there many years ago. And then, the place I'm heading to now: The Fairmont Hotel. It is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West and the site of one of the most popular ghost tours in the area. The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a guided tour that takes visitors through the hotel's dark and creepy halls, exploring its haunted history and sharing tales of the spirits that are said to haunt the property. Inside I meet George, who can tell me more about this place. GEORGE SAW AND HEARD GHOSTS According to local legend, the Fairmont Hotel is home to several ghostly entities, including the spirit of a former hotel employee who died on the job and the ghosts of several former guests who never checked out. Some people have reported seeing ghosts wandering the halls or hearing strange noises coming from empty rooms, and the hotel staff has even reported seeing objects move on their own or hearing footsteps when no one is there. "I didn't believe in ghosts before I got here but I've seen two ghosts in the year and a half, I've been here. I was working upstairs, I saw a guy, dressed in black walk into a room. I went down to chase him, but he wasn't there. I also built a shoe rack, and I go up there and the sneakers are all over the place." George also tells me that he's only been afraid one time. "I was sleeping up there one night, and in between our two properties, there was a banging on the wall that shook both places. It was four o'clock in the morning, pitch black, and it was like "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM" about ten times. And that scared me because, I thought, if that ghost can hit the wall like that, he could hit me. And that's the only time, I was really afraid." The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a popular activity for visitors to Deadwood, and it's a great way to experience the town's rich and haunted history. The tour guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the hotel's history and the area. They are sure to keep you entertained as they share the stories and legends of the Fairmont Hotel and its ghostly residents. So, whether you believe in ghosts or not, there's no denying that Deadwood, South Dakota, is a town with a rich and colourful history, and it's a place that is steeped in mystery and intrigue. But what I love about Deadwood is that it's not just a place of the past; it's a thriving community with a bright future. The town has been able to preserve its history while also adapting to the changing times, and it's a great example of how a community can come together to celebrate its heritage while also moving forward. MOUNT RUSHMORE I drove about an hour south to Mount Rushmore, a famous landmark in the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA. It is a massive sculpture that features the faces of four American Presidents carved into the side of a granite mountain: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. Historian Doane Robinson first proposed the idea for Mount Rushmore in the 1920s to attract tourists to South Dakota. In 1927, sculptor Gutzon Borglum was commissioned to carve the faces of the four presidents, and work on the project began in October of that year. It was completed in 1941, after over a decade of work. As you approach this massive sculpture, you can't help but feel a sense of awe. The sheer scale of it is mind-boggling, with the precision of the carving and the sheer determination and hard work that went into this project. To think that this massive carving was created by hand, using only dynamite and chisels, it's just unbelievable.  Today, Mount Rushmore is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, attracting millions of visitors from around the world each year. It is considered a symbol of American democracy and a tribute to the country's rich history. The sculpture also represents the values and ideals that have defined the nation, such as freedom, democracy, and patriotism. In addition to the carving of the four presidents, Mount Rushmore is surrounded by a National Memorial Park that features trails, scenic overlooks, and a visitor center with exhibits about the site's history and the presidents depicted. Visitors can also attend a lighting ceremony in the evening, where the faces of the presidents are illuminated in a patriotic display. THE CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL I know; I rolled that out pretty thick, didn't I? "A symbol to the land of the free and the home of the brave" and all of that. And even before it was finished, some felt that the Mount Rushmore project wasn't that brilliant an idea – when you consider how the land of the free and the home of the brave was stolen from the Native Americans. And just half an hour's drive from Mount Rushmore, another massive rock carving is in progress. So, I drove out to see that one too.  The Crazy Horse Memorial is a monumental sculpture in the Black Hills of South Dakota and dedicated to the Native American warrior Crazy Horse. It is considered to be one of the largest sculptures in the world. The sculpture is being carved out of Thunderhead Mountain, and when completed, we will see Crazy Horse mounted on a horse with his arm outstretched, pointing to his people's land. The Crazy Horse Memorial was commissioned in the 1940s by Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear as a response to the Mount Rushmore project, which he felt was a desecration of sacred land. And The sculpture is being carved by Polish Sculptor, Korczak Ziolkowski and now his family (as he passed away in 1982). He started working on it since 1948, and now, about 75 years later – it is still a work in progress. The Crazy Horse Memorial was envisioned as a way to honor and celebrate Native American culture and history, and to provide a counterpoint to Mount Rushmore. While the two monuments are located relatively close, they have different themes and messages. The two monuments serve as reminders of the complex and often fraught history of the region and the ongoing efforts to reconcile and recognize the diverse cultural perspectives and contributions that have shaped it. BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK The next day, I was heading southeast to Nebraska and passed through Badlands National Park. It's some of the most unique and dramatic landscapes I've ever seen, located in southwestern South Dakota. Badlands is known for its rugged terrain and striking rock formations that consist of layered rock and deep canyons. The landscape is characterized by jagged cliffs, steep mesas, and towering spires formed from sedimentary rock and erosive forces over millions of years. The terrain is barren and arid, with sparse vegetation and a mix of sagebrush, grasses, and cacti. The predominant colors in the landscape are shades of brown and orange, with streaks of green along the intermittent streams. The park is also home to a variety of wildlife, including bison, pronghorns, bighorn sheep, and coyotes. Overall, the Badlands is a stunning and unique natural wonder, and visiting the park is an awe-inspiring experience that is not to be missed. So, I'm glad it was on my way to Nebraska. NEXT STOP NEBRASKA In the next episode, I get to have a farm stay in the rural part of Nebraska. Here, I stay with a family, Mary Lou, John, and their grown-up son, Chris, who take me out on the field checking on their cattle. And then Mary Lou will tell me a story of her Danish ancestor who immigrated from my home country, Denmark when she was just a young girl.  All that, and much more in the next episode of The Radio Vagabond. My name is Palle Bo, and I gotta keep moving. See you.  POEM WRITTEN BY AN AI In South Dakota's Badlands wild,  Palle Bo wandered like a child,  Amazed by landscapes, bold and new,  That stretched out far, and wide, and blue. He heard of Hickok, famed and brave,  Who met his end in a saloon's enclave,  And of Calamity Jane, maybe his wife,  Whose spirit lingers, still to life. At Deadwood, George from the Fairmount Hotel,  Shared tales of ghostly guests as well,  And Palle, with wonder in his heart,  Felt the thrill of the Wild West start. But beyond the tales of days gone by,  Loomed the faces, carved up high,  Of four great presidents, proud and true,  Gazing out over the Badlands, too. With awe and wonder, Palle took it in,  And felt his heart and soul begin,  To truly understand this land,  And all the stories, grand and grand. Now, with sights still fresh in mind,  Palle ventures forth to find,  The farms of Nebraska, far and wide,  Where new adventures yet abide.

James Butler “Bill” Hickok was born on May 27th, 1837 in LaSalle County, Illinois. An excellent marksman from a young age, in 1855 he became a Kansas Abolitionist Jayhawker. From there he became a constable, joined the Pony Express parent company, was badly wounded by a bear, and committed his first justifiable homicide. This was all before the age of twenty-five. During the Civil War, Hickok became a Union Army teamster, a wagon master, joined the Kansas Brigade, and became a spy for the provost marshall of Missouri. He was also a gambler and drinker, known to carouse for days at a time. On July 21st, 1865, Hickok took part in his first duel, killing a man named Davis Tutt. He shot Tutt through the heart from seventy-five yards away. A subsequent interview with Harper's New Monthly Magazine labeled him Wild Bill for the first time. Rather than become an outlaw, Hickok became a lawman. He was soon a deputy Marshal at Fort Riley, and scouted for Custer's Seventh Cavalry. By December of 1867 he was a Marshall in Hays City, and later sheriff of the same town. In April of 1871 he became Marshall in Abilene, Kansas. That October, Hickok justifiably killed a saloon owner named Phil Coe. But, during the fight, Hickok saw a man running towards him. He wheeled and fired, killing what turned out to be his own deputy. The event haunted Hickok the rest of his life. It was the last time he was ever involved in a gunfight. Radio's version bore little resemblance to the real man. The format was the same used by the producers of Hopalong Cassidy and The Cisco Kid. Bill's comic sidekick, Jingles B. Jones was voiced by the famed Andy Devine. Guy Madison was Wild Bill. Hollywood regulars supported. It was directed by Paul Pierce. The show first aired over Mutual on May 27th, 1951. On May 14th, 1954 the episode was called “Dangerous Advice.” Wild Bill Hickok aired until New Year's Eve 1954. Mutual brought it back the following July. It ran until February of 1956. In early 1876 Hickok was diagnosed with glaucoma. Fearing blindness, he joined friends Charlie Utter and Calamity Jane Cannary in Deadwood, Dakota Territory. On August 2nd, 1876 he was playing poker. He'd badly beaten a man named Jack McCall the night before at cards. Although Hickok usually sat facing the door, no such seats were available. That afternoon he was playing five-card poker and holding a pair of Aces and Eights. Jack McCall walked in and shot Hickok in the back of the head from point blank range. Wild Bill died instantly. He was thirty-nine.

Nhắc tới bộ phim “Ngàn lời cuối” (A Thousand Words), người ta nghĩ ngay đến sự thất bại ở phòng vé khi mà nhà sản xuất phim và đạo diễn đưa ra con số 40 triệu đô la nhưng doanh thu chỉ đạt hơn 20 triệu. Tuy nhiên, tác phẩm ra đời vào năm 2012 của đạo diễn Brian Robbins này lại mang trong nó một ý nghĩa lớn lao hơn thế. Cùng với sự diễn xuất tài tình, duyên dáng, hài hước nhưng cũng vô cùng sâu sắc của Eddie Murphy, “Ngàn lời cuối” là một cái tên đáng giá, là một bộ phim giải trí đáng xem trong hàng loạt tác phẩm lừng lẫy tại kinh đô điện ảnh Hollywood.  Lời nói gió bay Jack McCall, nhân vật chính trong phim do Eddie Murphy thủ vai, làm cái nghề được gọi là đắt giá nhất trong các nghề “buôn nước bọt”, đó là môi giới văn chương. Anh là đại diện cho các tác giả văn học, hỗ trợ việc mua bán, thỏa thuận hợp đồng để tác phẩm tới tay các nhà xuất bản hoặc các nhà sản xuất phim ảnh. Đặc thù nghề nghiệp của Jack là nói rất nhiều, thậm chí anh nói dối quanh cốt để được việc của mình. Jack quan niệm đó là những lời nói dối vô hại, chẳng ảnh hưởng đến ai. Những lời hứa lèo, hứa xong để đó, giống như lời Jack nói với Caroline vợ anh về việc họ sẽ chuyển tới một ngôi nhà khác ấm cúng và thân thiện hơn. Jack quay cuồng với công việc, liên tục hứa và hứa, tất cả chỉ những lời nói quen miệng cứ thế tự nhiên trào ra, dần trở thành bản năng. Jack có thể nói bất cứ điều gì, lấy lòng tất cả mọi người bằng thứ mà họ muốn nghe, bằng lời sáo rỗng không xuất phát từ tấm lòng của anh rồi gần như ngay lập tức lãng quên nó. Với Jack, không gì ý nghĩa hơn là hoàn thiện được một cái hợp đồng mà theo anh, tất cả mọi người cùng có lợi. Đó chẳng phải là mục đích sống của hầu hết chúng ta trong thế giới hiện đại ngày nay? Cái quan trọng là làm được việc của mình, đôi khi không cần quan tâm tới những hệ lụy kéo theo sau nó ? Bạn có dám chắc là bạn chưa bao giờ nói dối, chưa bao giờ nói những điều vô nghĩa hoa mỹ hay chưa bao giờ nói những lời dù vô tình làm tổn thương người khác? Và bạn nghĩ lời nói ấy sẽ dễ dàng bay theo chiều gió? Như là Jack McCall? Bài học tốt là bài học đến đúng lúc Bỗng không biết là điềm may hay rủi, là sự xuất hiện của khắc tinh hay quý nhân mà Jack lại gặp nhà tâm linh học Sinja, để rồi từ đây, mọi chuyện bắt đầu. Sinh mệnh của Jack đột nhiên gắn liền với một cái cây bồ đề bất ngờ mọc ở sân sau nhà anh. Trên cây có một nghìn chiếc lá tương ứng với một nghìn từ mà Jack được nói. Và khi chiếc lá cuối cùng rụng xuống thì cũng là lúc cuộc sống của Jack kết thúc. Thử tưởng tượng một người sống bằng nghề nói như Jack lại chỉ còn một nghìn từ cuối cùng? Khốn khổ hơn cả là Jack phát hiện ra ngay cả khi anh viết ra giấy hoặc ra kí hiệu bằng tay thì những chiếc lá cũng rụng. Phản ứng tự nhiên của Jack là tìm mọi cách để chặt cái cây đi. Nhưng oái oăm thay, anh chỉ tự làm đau mình. Dường như cái cây đó chính là bản ngã của Jack không thể tách rời. Đến mức khi nó bị sâu bệnh thì Jack cũng cảm thấy ngứa ngáy không yên. Từ một người nói như cái máy, nói bất cứ điều gì xuất hiện trong đầu, bỗng, Jack phải chậm lại, phải nghĩ kĩ, phải lựa chọn điều gì nên nói, điều gì không. Giao tiếp với mọi người trở nên thật sự khó khăn và gây nên rất nhiều hiểu lầm không đáng có. Từ một nhà môi giới giỏi và sắc bén nhờ vào cái miệng, Jack phải học cách im lặng nhưng lại phải khiến mọi người vẫn hiểu mình. Jack bị mất hai hợp đồng sách, mất việc, thậm chí Caroline cũng dọn ra ngoài ở vì nghĩ anh đã thay đổi, không còn yêu cô nữa. Suy nghĩ đầu tiên của Jack sau khi gần như mất mọi thứ là phải làm việc thiện. Bản thân anh cho rằng đây là một lời nguyền tồi tệ và là kết quả của một thời gian dài anh đã quá bận rộn mà quên mất sự “trao gửi và cho đi”. Jack bắt đầu làm thiện nguyện một cách cuồng nhiệt, giúp đỡ người vô gia cư, cho họ đồ ăn, quyên tiền cho các sự kiện từ thiện. Nhưng rõ ràng, người ta thấy những việc làm của anh không xuất phát từ một tấm lòng muốn “trao gửi” thật sự. Nó vẫn bắt nguồn từ một con người ích kỉ, chỉ nghĩ đến bản thân mình, làm từ thiện cho lợi ích của mình. Nếu không phải vì sợ chết, sợ sự thất bại từ cái cây bồ đề thì hẳn Jack đã không sống vì bất cứ ai, hẳn anh cũng chẳng buồn để ý tới những thân phận khốn khổ đang tồn tại quanh mình. Tất nhiên, những cái lá vẫn rơi, lời nguyền kì dị vẫn còn đó khiến Jack phát điên. Anh trở nên chán chường tột độ, trở nên bất cần và hoàn toàn mất kiên nhẫn. Jack uống rượu, nói và hát rất nhiều trong cơn say. Để rồi sau đó, anh lại vô cùng ân hận bởi những từ ngữ vô nghĩa mà anh đã vung phí. Rõ ràng là, người ta không nhìn vào những điều bạn nói, người ta chỉ nhìn vào những việc bạn làm, nhất là với những người thân yêu của bạn, với những gì bạn thật sự coi là quan trọng trong cuộc đời. Lòng trắc ẩn tận nơi thẳm sâu Bình tâm trở lại, Jack tìm Sinja, nhà tâm linh học, để xin lời khuyên. Ngài nói với Jack rằng anh phải tìm tới sự Bình yên trong các mối quan hệ của anh. Suy ngẫm lại, Jack nhận ra trước giờ các mối quan hệ của anh đều nhạt nhẽo, đều đơn thuần chỉ là tiền bạc và công việc. Không ai thật sự gần gũi anh, thật sự quan tâm và quan trọng với anh, ngoài Caroline, vợ anh và Annie, mẹ anh. Đó là hai người ý nghĩa nhất với Jack. Nhưng Jack đã làm gì với họ? Cái Caroline nhận được chỉ là những ngày dài bận rộn của chồng và những lời hứa suông ngày này qua tháng khác về việc chuyển nhà. Còn mẹ Jack, người phụ nữ mắc căn bệnh Alzheimer, thì chỉ là những lần ghé thăm ngắn ngủi chóng vánh của con trai trong viện dưỡng lão. Lúc ấy, trên cây bồ đề chỉ còn một cành lá cuối cùng. Cuộc đời của Jack cũng chỉ còn chừng đó “lời nói”. Nhưng Jack quyết định phải gặp hai người quan trọng nhất trong đời anh. Cuộc sống của anh, rốt cục, cũng chỉ là phụ thuộc vào những lời nói mà thôi. Jack tìm tới Caroline, cố gắng hàn gắn và giải thích nhưng cô không cho anh cơ hội. Mỗi chiếc lá trên cành rơi xuống là mỗi tia hi vọng của Jack lại mất đi. Anh buồn bã tới viện dưỡng lão để gặp mẹ khi mà cây bồ đề chỉ còn lại ba chiếc lá mong manh cuối cùng. Câu chuyện lúc này hé mở, tiết lộ toàn bộ những uẩn khúc trong lòng Jack. Thì ra, Jack đã có một tuổi thơ thật dữ dội khi cha anh bỏ nhà ra đi, để lại mẹ và anh cùng những lời hứa mãi mãi không bao giờ trở thành hiện thực. Có lẽ chính vì vậy mà Jack đã lớn lên thành một người như hiện tại. Quá khứ làm nên con người Jack chính là cái quá khứ mà anh phải đối mặt. Chứng mất trí nhớ của bà Annie, mẹ Jack, đã khiến bà lầm tưởng Jack là chồng bà. Những lời bà nói ra khi gặp anh là những lời bà muốn nói với ông, rằng bà mong một ngày Jack sẽ tha thứ cho ông vì đã rời bỏ họ. Cái Bình yên mà nhà tâm linh học Sinja nhắc tới thật ra là nỗi đau đang ẩn sâu trong lòng Jack. Nỗi đau Jack đã vùi xuống tận đáy của những cảm xúc dường như đã bị lãng quên. Nỗi oán hận chưa bao giờ được giải tỏa, chưa bao giờ được giãi bày, thậm chí chưa bao giờ được nhìn nhận một cách rõ ràng. Từ khi có sự hiện diện của cây bồ đề, Jack đã hoang mang đi tìm câu trả lời trong vô vọng, và giờ đây, tất cả đã sáng rõ. Muốn giải quyết vấn đề của hiện tại, anh phải đối mặt với quá khứ. Jack tới ngôi mộ của cha anh. Những tia chớp chói lòa báo hiệu một cơn giông sắp tới. Jack thốt lên “Con tha thứ cho cha”. Anh đã dùng những từ cuối cùng trong đời mình để làm cái việc mà đáng lý đã nên làm từ lâu, đó là sự bao dung. Jack nằm xuống cạnh ngôi mộ và chờ đợi… Tất nhiên, chẳng có ai phải chết trong một bộ phim tâm lí hài nhẹ nhàng. “Ngàn lời cuối” đem tới cho khán giả một cái kết có hậu không thể tốt đẹp hơn, đó là sự đoàn tụ của gia đình Jack trong ngôi nhà xinh xắn có sân vườn và cây bồ đề rợp lá ngay phía trước. Rõ ràng, nếu muốn tiếp tục cuộc sống hiện tại và tương lai thì việc ta phải làm là hãy đối xử tốt với quá khứ. Bởi dù ta có cố lãng quên nó thì tại nơi thẳm sâu trong tâm hồn, quá khứ vẫn ở yên đó.

Tread Perilously continues its month on the frontier with a visit to Deadwood to witness an episode called "The Trial of Jack McCall." With the body of Wild Bill Hickock lying in state and Al Swearengen fearing the arrival of U.S. law, the camp of Deadwood convenes its own court to try Wild Bill's murder, Jack McCall. But this being Deadwood, everyone has their own reasons for seeing this sort of frontier justice to the end. Will it cause a Mr. Bullock to lose his cool? Will it make the pox outbreak which threatens the town worse? And will anyone realize E.B Farnum is not to be trusted? Erik finally watches his first episode of Deadwood and begins to analyze it as a Libertarian power fantasy. Both he and Justin discuss the powerhouse casting throughout the episode -- from stars like Timothy Olyphant to show favorite Garret Dillahunt. Jango Fett's stolen valor comes into question. Erik suggests Jeffrey Jones should be digitally replaced by Christopher Plummer. He also tries to deal with some of the culturally insensitive words used on Deadwood. Justin sings the praises of Brad Dourif. Tombstone comes up because of course it does and Erik reveals his belief that most non-European languages' term for "European" is "White Devil."

Calamity Jane a-t-elle existé ? Réponse dans le podcast de La Fabrik Audio. Le podcast de La Petite Histoire est aussi à écouter sur Cinémaradio.  Calamity s'appelait en réalité Martha Jane Cannary et a vécu aux États-Unis au XIXe siècle. Comment vous le savez, Calamity savait parfaitement monter à cheval et manier le pistolet. Et aujorud'hui La Petite Histoire a choisi de s'intéresser de près à ce personnage emblématique du Far West! Nous ne savons pas vraiment quand est ce qu'est née Martha Jane Cannary! Certains disent qu'elle est née le en 1850, d'autres en 1852 ou bien encore en 1856. Ce qui est sûr en revanche c'est qu'elle est originaire du Missouri aux Etats-Unis. De nombreux historiens se sont penchés sur la vie de cette légende du Far West et en plus des biographies historiques qu'ils ont écrites, on a retrouvé des lettres que Calamity Jane aurait envoyées à sa fille. Cela dit ces lettres n'ont pas été authentifiées. Toujours est-il qu'il existe donc de nombreuses sources pour comprendre qui était Calamity Jane! Martha Jane Cannary est née dans une famille de paysans. Elle a trois sœurs et deux frères dont elle est l'aînée. Les parents de Martha n'étaient pas souvent à la maison ce qui donne très vite à la fratrie des qualités d'indépendance et d'autonomie! Martha est une enfant qui aime beaucoup s'amuser à l'extérieur et qui a une relation fusionnelle avec la nature. Elle apprend très tôt à monter à cheval. Alors que Martha est encore jeune, la famille décide de partir s'installer dans le Montana. Depuis le Missouri, le voyage est long! Très long! 5 mois au total! 5 mois durant lesquels Martha va aider ses parents et notamment son père à la chasse! Malheureusement sa mère Charlotte Cannary meurt pendant le voyage! A peine arrivée dans le Montana, la famille émigre à nouveau, cette fois c'est un départ pour l' Utah. Et c'est au tour de son père de disparaître. Peut-être est-il mort, peut-être a-t-il tout simplement abandonné sa famille. Toujours est-il que nous sommes en 1968 et Martha et ses soeurs se retrouvent seules! Commence alors une vie d'aventures! Alors qu'elle n'a que 18 ans, Martha commence à dénoncer les indiens d'Amérique. Elle devient scout et fait campagne en Arizona contre les Amérindiens. Et c'est à ce moment là que Martha commence à porter des pantalons et des chaussures d'homme. Elle a à présent une allure très masculine. Elle s'entraîne même au maniement du pistolet et à force de travail elle devient très précise! Mais elle ne sait pas encore que d'ici peu sa vie va prendre un véritable tournant et sa renommée émerger! Elle va en effet sauver son capitaine lors d'une mission menée contre les amérindiens. Ca se passe dans le Wyoming. Calamity est parti plusieurs jours avec un groupe de soldats pour combattre les amérindiens. Mais la bataille s'emballe, et six des soldats au côté desquels elle lutte sont tués! Il y a aussi beaucoup de blessés! Obligés donc de rebrousser chemin. De retour vers le fort, l'équipe de Calamity tombe dans une embuscade et son capitaine est blessé. Martha s'aperçoit que ce dernier va tomber de son cheval et c'est alors que n'écoutant que son insctint, elle galope vers lui et l'attrape empâchant ainsi la chute fatale! Elle le met sur son cheval et le ramène au fort! Et c'est une fois guéri, que le capitaine sauvé l'aurait baptisée “Calamity Jane, l'héroïne des plaines”. Et à partir de ce moment, ce surnom ne la quittera plus jamais! Après ça, les campagnes continuent. Et elle est la première femme blanche à pénétrer dans des territories contrôlées par les indiens, les Sioux. Elle fait partie de grandes expéditions, traverse de nombreuses zones très dangereuses, puis rencontre un certain Wild Bill Hickok avec lequel elle fait la route. Ces deux là deviennent inséparables et on leur prête même une aventure! Et c'est d'ailleurs à cette époque là qu'elle va accoucher d'un nouveau né. Mais, beaucoup diront que le père de cet enfant est un lieutenant avec qui elle aurait eu une liaison. On n'en saura pas plus sur son véritable lien avec Wild Bill Hickok. Un jour, en août 1876, alors que Wild Bill Hickok et Calamity Jane sont dans un saloon de Deadwood, un coup de feu retentit et Bill ressent une affreuse douleur derrière la tête. On vient en fait de lui tirer une balle et il meurt quelques minutes à peine après le coup de feu. * Triste, désireuse de venageance, Calamity part dans les jours qui suivent à la recherche de l'assassin, un certain Jack McCall. Elle finit par le retrouver et réussit même à attraper pour le livrer au shériff afin qu'il soit jugé puis pendu. Calamity n'a désormais plus rien à faire à Deadwood qui la ramène sdans cesse aux souvenirs de son compagnon de route perdu! Elle décide donc de tracer la route et va s'essayer à de nombreux métiers : tour à tour elle devient cuisinière pour les ouvriers de chemins de fer ou pour les cow-boys dans des ranchs ou saloons, infirmière, lingère dans des bordels. Mais ce qu'elle préfère c'est voyager! Elle passe d'Etat en Etat, élevant du bétail ou le convoyant. En 1882, Buffalo Bill lui propose de la rejoindre pour participer à son mythique spectacle populaire, le Buffalo Bill's Wild West, mais elle refuse! Puis elle rencontre un certain William Steers avec lequel elle se marie puis a un fils, Little Calamity, qui meurt nourrisson. Elle quitte très peu de temps après son mari et en 1885, elle fait la rencontre de Clinton Burke, un Texan. Elle sde remarie et donne naissance à un troisième enfant, une petite fille, Jessie... Jessie Jane! La famille fait ses valises et part alors pour le Colorado où elle ouvre un hôtel. Ce n'est que 17 ans plus tard qu'elle revient à Deadwood, pour y retriouver ses anciens amis qui sont très contents de son retour! Certains s'amusent même à inventer un spevctacle de théâtre qui met en scène sa vie! Il faut dire que tous savent la vie d'aventurière que Calamity Jane a connu. Ces spectacles donnent l'idée à Calamity Jane d'elle aussi participer à des spectacles et elle choisit des faire des shows sur le mythe de l'Ouest américain parmi lesquels le Wild West Shows ou bien le Great Rocky Mountain Show. Mais celle qui a eu une vie des plus palpitantes n'a pas eu le temps d'économiser ! En 1901, elle est retrouve alors dans une maison pour pauvres et alcooliques. Elle meurt deux ans plus tard d'une pneumonie. Ses funérailles sont un événement dans toute la région! On vient de très loin pour lui rendre hommage! Les membres de la Société des Pionniers des Black Hills se chargent même d'organiser une cérémonie prestigieuse. On l'habille de blanc, on la place dans un cercueil, et son corps est exposé dans l'arrière-salle d'un saloon, où tous les habitants de Deadwood peuvent venir lui faire un dernier adieu. C'est d'ailleurs à Deadwood qu'elle est enterrée, juste à côté de son compagnon de route, Wild Bill Hickok, selon sa propre volonté.

In Fireside Chats No. 14, co-hosts Marie Mohler and Lacy Frazer talk about the taking 100% Responsibility for Creating Our Reality . . . through the lens of the Power of Our Words and the use of Language. In this episode, they spotlight the film, A Thousand Words, where Eddie Murphy plays the role of Jack McCall, a literary agent who generally uses the "gift of gab" to manipulate, control, or coerce anybody to do anything in order to close a deal. When he eventually manipulates a spiritual guru to sign a book deal with him, a Bodhi Tree appears in his back yard. This Bodhi Tree becomes integrally linked to everything Jack McCall says and feels, from that point forward. This movie is an excellent illustration of the Power of Our Words to create our lives. Jack McCall's words become literally tied to the leaves on that very Bodhi Tree, and his life depends on learning this most valuable lesson. Join us in this enlightening conversation about this impactful film ~ when seen through more spiritual and awakened eyes. Deep messages are embedded in this film, when we see through this newly activated lens of personal transformation and transcendence.

I'm as surprised as anyone that he and Charlie Utter don't return with Jack McCall's body, but I think he was smart in how he played this one and that he will be glad he handled it how he did for the rest of his life. Also, this damn widow isn't being careful and I'm getting real fuckin irritated with her.

Thank you to Patrick for commissioning this series, which has turned into one of my favorite shows ever (at least so far, who knows what can happen down the line). This episode dealt almost entirely with the fallout from Wild Bill's death, and that includes everyone, from the people who knew him best who now are getting drunk or looking for information, to the randoms on the street and their takeaway on all these events. Also yikes the honest depiction of racism is really disturbing and fucking got to me a little bit. I'm very interested to see where this show goes with this because it seems like they're laying a lot of groundwork.

Swearengen se da cuenta de que el importante juicio atraerá la indeseada atención del gobierno de Estados Unidos, ya que Deadwood no posee las competencias para llevar a cabo tan magno acontecimiento. Mientras, en el Grand Central Hotel, Alma Garret está aún cuidando de la niña de los Metz. No obstante, Alma sigue determinada en investigar el valor de su prospección. De acuerdo con Bullock, firma un poder que le da autoridad sobre la tierra, como Hickok había recomendado. Swearengen se enfurece al descubrir que el antiguo Marshall se ha implicado en el tema, y él y Farnum conciben un plan: Trixie ofrecerá su ayuda a la niña de los Metz, y utilizará la oportunidad para deslizar secretamente algo de la droga de Al entre las cosas de Alma. En el Bella Union, Andy Cramed continúa terriblemente enfermo, así que Tolliver decide enviarlo al bosque para dejarlo morir. Uno de los hombres de Cy lleva a cabo el plan a regañadientes. Mientras esto sucede, el doctor Cochran visita el Bella Union y advierte a Tolliver de la necesidad de conseguir medicina para la epidemia que se avecina. El dueño del saloon envía renuente a un hombre a Fort Kearney, en Nebraska. Antes de que el juicio comience, Bullock va a ver McCall, que está encerrado en matadero del Sr. Wu. Tras una tensa conversación, Bullock comienza a hogar a McCall con sus propias manos, pero el acusado es salvado cuando entre su abogado.

Having finished with Henry James, I thought we needed a REAL woman to freshen our pallette.... Not so much Doris. Don't know if you've watched (NOT for sensitive ears!), but it at least started out as far as I can tell. My son and I got to see Wild Bill and Jane's graves when we drove through there in early August. We ate where Bill was killed by Jack McCall--which sounds more morbid than it is...he was killed in the poker room of a saloon. They stage reenactments of his murder every night, I think. Jane was quite something. CHEERS! And here in the "costume" of her sex. I'm sorry it's a guy reading the autobiography, but it's still amazing to hear her own words. She was one tough cookie. And while she has the reputation for being, um...not the most attractive woman of her time, I think she was actually a rather handsome woman--far less...weathered than I would have imagined for one of Custer's scouts. And then a little Bret Harte For some more local color and American Realism. Let's bring ourselves back from the mannered Victorian brink into a little good old American...Puritanism? Victorianism?
