Keep watch for that Captain trying to slip you the King's Shilling, as on this month's episode of Forgotten Melodies we're talking all about Soldiers and Sailors!We're discussing two different kinds of broadside at once today - both ballads and rows of cannon, with explorations of the contexts of three old folk songs we've recorded.The first, William Taylor, sees us folding together two folk classics to have another bite at a familiar enough theme.The second, Stand By Your Guns, gives Eleanor cover to tell us all about canon management during the Napoleonic era.The third, The Soldier's Prayer, then skewers the grand irony of many songs sung by soldiers and sailors - they're often about peace!We - Ben, Eleanor and Martin - dig into each, and, around moistening our cannon holes and trying not to get shot, very much hope you enjoy the episode.Speak to you again on Thursday for our Lang Fairy Tale triple-bill featuring The Voice of the Devil, The Six Sillies, and Drakestail!The Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

War in the Middle East is placing a heavy toll on UK farmers. Coverage in Farmers Guardian in recent weeks has revealed the extent and impact of skyrocketing prices to red diesel, heating oil and fertiliser since the Middle East crisis escalated on February 28. The crisis has placed an additional £25,000 on fuel bills for some farm businesses, and others have claimed the UK is lurching into a food security crisis if the Government does not act immediately to support domestic food production. In response to claims that the UK Government is preparing a ‘worst case scenario' for the possibility of food shortages, Business and Trade Secretary Peter Kyle said it is ‘not a concern' for the UK economy at present. But if war in Iran continues beyond the summer, it could place even greater pressure on planting decisions, affordability and the availability of resources. Is the UK really prepared for food shortages? Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said de-escalating the crisis and reopening the Strait of Hormuz is the only way to stop the price volatility experienced by farmers. But as each day passes, and with no signs of a peace deal in sight, the question is how long can farmers withstand pressures on their businesses? And is protesting an appropriate form of action? Farmers For Action co-ordinator William Taylor joins us on the podcast to discuss the impact of the war on UK food producers, the impact of Inheritance Tax on farm profitability, if UK farmers will hold protests, the influence of the fuel strikes of 2000, and the importance of UK Government passing a Farm Welfare Bill to bring about fairness in the food supply chain.Message us

Send a textBoot Hill gets talked about like a legend, but legends get lazy. We wanted the names, the dates, and the ugly little details that show how Dodge City earned its reputation before the “classic” era of Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson even settles in.We walk through the earliest Boot Hill burials starting in 1872, when the railroad, soldiers from Fort Dodge, gamblers, buffalo hunters, and nonstop drinking turn a new town into a combustible mix. Stories like Jack Reynolds, the man remembered as Blackjack or Tex, the killing of hotel owner Carpenter J. M. Essington, and the violence in Tom Sherman's dance hall make it clear that these were not neat Western showdowns. They were crowded, impulsive, and often senseless.Then the episode turns to vigilante justice, the executions of Ed Williams and Charles “Texas” Hill, and the return of McGill, a buffalo hunter whose behavior becomes infamous. The real pivot point comes with the murder of William Taylor, a Black man and the private cook for Colonel Richard Dodge, and the military response that follows. That single killing helps push Dodge City toward formal law enforcement, the election of Sheriff Charlie Bassett, and a clearer divide in how ordinances are enforced north and south of the tracks.If you're into Dodge City history, Boot Hill history, or the truth behind Wild West myths, this is the ground-level story of how reputation is made and why a town eventually tries to bury it.

In this episode of Ethnocynology, host David Ian Howe sits down with archaeologist and anthropologist Dr. William Taylor (University of Colorado Boulder), author of Hoofbeats: How Horses Shaped Human History.While this show usually focuses on dogs, today we shift to the other animal that transformed humanity: the horse. Dr. Taylor walks us through the evolutionary history of horses, their domestication on the Eurasian steppe, and their reintroduction to the Americas after the Ice Age. Together we explore how humans first interacted with horses—as prey, symbols in cave art, sources of milk and meat, and eventually as partners in transport, warfare, and belief systems.Topics include:The origins of domestic horses around 2000 BC in the Caucasus steppesHorses evolving in North America, going extinct, and being reintroduced by the SpanishHunting evidence from sites like Schöningen in Germany and Bluefish Caves in the YukonHorses in Paleolithic cave art (Lascaux, Chauvet) and the Vogelherd ivory carvingEvidence for early horse riding and chariot use in Egypt, Assyria, and beyondThe role of horses in indigenous North and South American societies before widespread European contactEthno-equine parallels in Mongolia, Australia, and Patagonia, where horses shaped cultural, spiritual, and economic lifeThis is Part 1 of a two-part series: next time, David speaks with Cassidy Thornhill of the University of Wyoming, who researches the protohistoric introduction of horses into the Americas.If you enjoy the episode, please rate and review Ethnocynology on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Send us a textBefore Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson became synonymous with Dodge City, a more sinister form of "justice" ruled the streets. "The William Taylor Incident" transports you to 1873 frontier Kansas, where the line between law and lawlessness wasn't just blurred—it didn't exist at all.Narrated through the eyes of Herman Fringer, one of Dodge City's founding settlers, this harrowing account reveals how a simple misunderstanding escalated into a brutal execution. William Taylor, a well-regarded black servant from nearby Fort Dodge, found himself in the crosshairs of the town's self-appointed vigilantes after refusing to transport a man to a local brothel. What follows is a chilling sequence of events culminating in a public execution that would ultimately force Kansas officials to establish formal governance in the notorious frontier town.The story provides a raw, unflinching look at early Dodge City when it was little more than a collection of saloons, general stores, and brothels serving buffalo hunters and railroad workers. With approximately thirty killings in less than a year and the nearest law enforcement over a hundred miles away, the settlement operated on its own brutal code—where perceived slights could carry deadly consequences.Beyond recounting a forgotten tragedy, this narrative examines how one man's murder potentially catalyzed the appointment of Ford County's first commissioners and sheriff, forever changing the trajectory of what would become one of the most famous frontier towns in American history. Listen as we uncover this pivotal moment when the Wild West's lawlessness was forced to give way to civil order, all sparked by the tragic death of an innocent man whose final words still echo through time: "Please, Mr. Scott, don't shoot me like you shot my mule."Support the showIf you are interested in purchasing one or more of our fully illustrated dime novel publications, you can click on the link provided.

Send us a textWhile most Western history fans know the famous lawmen and outlaws who made Dodge City legendary, the actual souls buried on Boot Hill Cemetery have remained largely forgotten—until now. These weren't just nameless bodies; they were real people whose violent deaths created the reputation that still defines Dodge City nearly 150 years later.The summer of 1872 marked the beginning of Boot Hill's dark legacy when Jack Reynolds, described as a "notoriously contemptible desperado," was shot six times by a railroad worker during an altercation. Newspaper accounts coldly reported that "law-abiding people of the Southwest had been rid of a terror." This callous attitude toward violent death became the norm in early Dodge, where murders occurred with shocking frequency.From the gambler Denver who shot a man called "Blackjack" simply "for the pleasure of watching him kick," to dance hall owner Tom Sherman who publicly executed a troublemaker named Burns by asking bystanders, "Well, I better shoot him again, hadn't I boys?" before putting a bullet between his eyes—these stories reveal why Dodge earned its nickname as "the wickedest little city in America." The turning point came in June 1873 when William Taylor, a Black cook for Colonel Richard Dodge, was murdered by drunks, prompting military intervention and the establishment of Ford County's first official law enforcement.Boot Hill was never a proper cemetery but a convenient dumping ground for those nobody claimed or cared about. By 1879, civic leaders had grown weary of Dodge City's association with Boot Hill and closed it down, attempting to reshape the town's blood-soaked image. Yet the forgotten stories of those buried there—ordinary people caught in extraordinary violence—reveal more about the real Wild West than any Hollywood portrayal ever could.What forgotten stories from America's frontier past fascinate you?

Welcome back to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates series! Today, we're galloping through time to uncover a story that's larger than life, spanning continents, centuries, and civilizations—a story of how one magnificent animal changed the world. That's right—today, we're talking about horses. Imagine the thundering hooves of a herd sweeping across the Eurasian steppes, the clash of chariots in ancient battles, the whispers of trade deals along the Silk Road, and the resilience of Indigenous cultures in the Americas. At the heart of these pivotal moments in human history is the humble yet extraordinary horse. Our guest, Smithsonian Associate William Taylor, is no stranger to this epic tale. Dr. William Taylor will be presenting at Smithsonian Associates in full, coming up. Check out our show notes today for more details about his upcoming presentation titled, “Horses Shaped Human History.” But we have Dr. Willliam Taylor briefly here today to tell us about being an archaeozoologist, assistant professor, and curator of archaeology at the University of Colorado Boulder. Smithsonian Associate Dr. William Taylor has spent his life piecing together the story of horses and humans—how they've partnered to shape history, from the first moments of domestication to the rise of global trade and even social inequality. Dr. Taylor's groundbreaking new book, Hoof Beats: How Horses Shaped Human History, takes readers on a vivid journey through these remarkable intersections of biology, culture, and conquest. But this isn't just a history lesson. Smithsonian Associate Dr. William Taylor's work draws on cutting-edge science—ancient DNA, archaeozoology—and Indigenous perspectives to rewrite what we thought we knew about horses. Dr. William Taylor will share stories of discoveries on the Mongolian steppes, the spread of mounted riders, and how horses remain vital to cultures around the globe. So, whether you've ever ridden a horse or just admired them from afar, today's episode will open your eyes to their deep connection to us. This isn't just history—it's humanity galloping forward, hoofbeats echoing through the ages. I'm Paul Vogelzang, your host.
