This Week in the West: Dispelling the Myths Surrounding Geronimo

🤠This Week in the West 🎙️ Episode 85: Dispelling the Myths Surrounding Geronimo 📢 Episode Summary: Geronimo, born Goyahkla—or "One Who Yawns"—in 1829, grew up among the Chiricahua Apache in what is now Arizona, New Mexico and northern Mexico. His life changed forever in 1851 when Mexican soldiers attacked his camp and killed his mother, wife and children while he was away. The tragedy fueled a lifelong determination to defend his people and their way of life. Over time, he earned the name Geronimo, likely derived from Mexican soldiers calling upon Saint Jerome during battle, and became one of the most recognizable figures in the history of the American West. Although not a chief, Geronimo emerged as an influential Apache spiritual leader, warrior and strategist during the Apache Wars. As American expansion accelerated following the Mexican-American War, the Apache faced increasing pressure from settlers, soldiers and government policies that confined Indigenous peoples to reservations. Refusing to accept life on the San Carlos Reservation, Geronimo repeatedly led small groups of Apache followers into the mountains of the Southwest, evading capture and conducting raids for years. His ability to escape much larger military forces made him both feared and legendary throughout the region. Geronimo finally surrendered in 1886, marking the end of major Apache resistance campaigns in the Southwest. He and the Chiricahua Apache spent the rest of their lives as prisoners of war, eventually being relocated to Fort Sill in Oklahoma Territory. In later years, Geronimo became a national celebrity, appearing at fairs, expositions and even President Theodore Roosevelt's inaugural parade. Yet he never stopped seeking permission to return to his homeland. His 1905 autobiography remains one of the most important firsthand accounts by an Indigenous leader of the American West. He died at Fort Sill in 1909, still a prisoner of war, leaving behind a legacy that continues to shape conversations about resistance, survival and the history of the American West. 🔍 What You’ll Learn: How Geronimo became a symbol of Apache resistance and the personal tragedy that shaped his determination to defend his people, homeland and traditions. The story of the Apache Wars and the growing conflicts between Indigenous peoples, settlers, soldiers and governments as the American Southwest underwent dramatic change during the 19th century. What happened after Geronimo's surrender, including his years as a prisoner of war, his unexpected rise to national celebrity and the lasting legacy he left through his autobiography and his role in Western history. 👥 Behind the Scenes Host: Seth Spillman Producer: Chase Spivey Writer: Mike Koehler 🔗 Further research: Oklahoma PBS Documentary on Geronimo: https://www.pbs.org/video/geronimo-vvnasx/ National Archive article on Geronimo: https://prologue.blogs.archives.gov/2022/11/22/geronimo-apache-chief/ The Geronimo Trail National Scenic Byway: https://geronimotrail.com/ 📬 Connect With Us: 🌐 Website: www.thecowboy.org 📖 Read Our Blog: https://nationalcowboymuseum.org/blog/ 📩 Email: podcast@thecowboy.org 📲Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/ncwhm/ 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nationalcowboymuseum ❎X/Twitter: https://x.com/ncwhm 💼LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-cowboy-&-western-heritage-museum 🗺️ Visit Us: The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, 1700 NE 63rd Street, Oklahoma City, OK, 73111.

🤠This Week in the West 🎙️ Episode 84: Louis L’Amour, The West’s Great Storyteller 📢 Episode Summary: Louis L’Amour became one of the most influential Western writers in history not because he imagined the West from afar, but because he lived much of it himself. Born in North Dakota in 1908, he spent his early adulthood traveling the American West, working as a ranch hand, miner, lumber camp laborer, merchant seaman and boxer. Those experiences gave him firsthand knowledge of the landscapes, people and hardships that would later become the foundation of his fiction.

His stories of ranchers, settlers, prospectors and wanderers helped define how generations of readers understood the American West, while his dedication to historical research gave his work a reputation for authenticity. This episode explores L’Amour's relentless work ethic, his love of reading and learning, and the legacy he left behind when he died on June 10, 1988. While some aspects of his work have been reassessed by modern audiences, his influence on Western literature, film and popular culture remains enormous. More than three decades after his death, his books continue to introduce new readers to the history, adventure and mythology of the American West. 🔍 What You’ll Learn: How Louis L’Amour's real-life adventures as a laborer, sailor, boxer and traveler shaped the characters and settings that made his Western novels famous. Why Hondo became the turning point that transformed L’Amour from a pulp magazine writer into one of the world's bestselling authors.

🤠This Week in the West 🎙️ Episode 82: Andy Payne and the Brutal Craziness of the Bunion Derby 📢 Episode Summary: In this episode of This Week in The West, listeners travel back to 1928 for one of the strangest and toughest athletic events in American history: the Transcontinental Footrace, better known as the “Bunion Derby.” Created by sports promoter Charles C. Pyle, the race challenged nearly 300 runners to travel more than 3,400 miles from Los Angeles to New York City for a massive cash prize. Following much of what would later become Route 66, the race became a national spectacle filled with carnivals, crowds and daily hardship. At the center of the story is Andy Payne, a 20-year-old Cherokee runner from Foyil, Oklahoma. Payne entered the race hoping to save his family’s farm from financial trouble. Unlike many competitors who pushed too hard early, Payne relied on patience, discipline and endurance. He survived brutal weather, illness, dangerous traffic and exhaustion while steadily climbing through the ranks as other runners dropped out. Along the way, he became a folk hero across Oklahoma, greeted by cheering crowds, politicians and even humorist Will Rogers. The episode concludes with Payne’s dramatic finish at Madison Square Garden on May 26, 1928. After 84 grueling days on the road, Payne won the race by more than 15 hours, earning enough money to pay off his family’s mortgage and invest in land back home. The podcast reflects on how Payne’s victory transformed his life and secured his place in Oklahoma and Route 66 history.

This Week in the West: The Monumental Effort to Create the Transcontinental Railroad

🤠This Week in the West 🎙️ Episode 79: The Monumental Effort to Create the Transcontinental Railroad 📢 Episode Summary: This episode of This Week in The West commemorates the anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869. The story opens at Promontory Summit in Utah Territory, where the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads met in a historic moment symbolized by the driving of the golden spike. What had once seemed impossible—a rail connection spanning the continent—became a reality, marking a turning point in American history. The episode explores the immense challenges behind the railroad’s construction. From the granite walls of the Sierra Nevada to the vast and unforgiving Great Plains, thousands of laborers—many of them Chinese immigrants, Irish workers, Civil War veterans and formerly enslaved men—endured brutal conditions to complete the line. The project was driven forward by the Pacific Railway Act signed by President Abraham Lincoln in 1862, but it came at a cost, including the disruption of Native American lands and the near destruction of the American bison. Finally, the episode examines the profound impact of the railroad on the nation. Travel time across the country shrank from months to about a week, transforming commerce, communication and daily life. The railroad helped establish time zones, fueled economic growth and shaped settlement patterns across the West. Its influence reached into industries like cattle ranching and inspired artists such as Albert Bierstadt, whose work captured a landscape in transition. The legacy of the transcontinental railroad remains deeply woven into the story of the American West and the themes explored at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. 🔍 What You’ll Learn: How the transcontinental railroad was planned, funded and ultimately completed at Promontory Summit in 1869 The human story behind the railroad, including the diverse workforce and the कठिन and dangerous conditions they endured The lasting impact of the railroad on American life, from economic growth and time zones to Western expansion and cultural change 👥 Behind the Scenes Host: Seth Spillman Producer: Chase Spivey Writer: Mike Koehler 🔗 Further research: PBS’ American Experience documentary on the Transcontinental Railroad: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/films/tcrr/ The Transcontinental Railroad and the Asian-American Experience: https://postalmuseum.si.edu/the-transcontinental-railroad-and-the-asian-american-story How the Transcontinental Railroad changed America forever: https://www.bbc.com/reel/video/p0n4kjvh/watch 📬 Connect With Us: 🌐 Website: www.thecowboy.org 📖 Read Our Blog: https://nationalcowboymuseum.org/blog/ 📩 Email: podcast@thecowboy.org 📲Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/ncwhm/ 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nationalcowboymuseum ❎X/Twitter: https://x.com/ncwhm 💼LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-cowboy-&-western-heritage-museum 🗺️ Visit Us: The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, 1700 NE 63rd Street, Oklahoma City, OK, 73111.

This Week in the West: The Wild Western Life of Artist Olaf Wieghorst

🤠This Week in the West 🎙️ Episode 78: The Wild Western Life of Artist Olaf Wieghorst 📢 Episode Summary: This episode of This Week in the West explores the remarkable life of Western artist Olaf Wieghorst, a man whose story reads like the very scenes he would later paint. Born in Denmark in 1899, Wieghorst developed an early fascination with horses while performing as a child acrobat and circus rider. Drawn by stories of the American West, he immigrated to the United States in 1918, famously jumping ship in New York with little more than a dollar and a dream. His journey west began through enlistment in the U.S. Cavalry, where he gained firsthand experience with the landscapes, people, and horses that would define his artistic legacy. After his military service, Wieghorst lived and worked as a cowboy in the Southwest, sketching scenes of everyday Western life before eventually settling in New York City. There, he joined the NYPD Mounted Division, continuing his work with horses while quietly building a side career as an artist. Despite restrictions on outside work, his drawings began gaining recognition through magazines and exhibitions, reflecting an authenticity that came from lived experience rather than imagination. In 1944, Wieghorst retired from the police force and moved permanently to California, dedicating himself fully to painting. His work—often centered on horses and quiet, reflective moments of Western life—earned him national acclaim and comparisons to legends like Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Honored during his lifetime and beyond, including induction into the Hall of Great Westerners, Wieghorst left behind a legacy rooted in authenticity. As he once said, he painted what he knew—knowledge earned through hardship, experience, and a life fully lived in the West. 🔍 What You’ll Learn: How Olaf Wieghorst’s real-life experiences as a cavalryman, cowboy, and horseman shaped the authenticity of his Western art The unlikely path from Danish circus performer and immigrant to one of America’s most respected Western painters Why firsthand experience—not formal training—became the foundation of Wieghorst’s artistic philosophy and lasting legacy 👥 Behind the Scenes Host: Seth Spillman Producer: Chase Spivey Writer: Mike Koehler 🔗 Further research: The Olaf Wieghorst Museum: https://wieghorstmuseum.org/ Audio of Olaf Wieghorst on the Merv Griffin Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idFc80uuQu8 Wieghorst at The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum for an art show: https://images.nationalcowboymuseum.org/Documents/Detail/olaf-wieghorst/103336 📬 Connect With Us: 🌐 Website: www.thecowboy.org 📖 Read Our Blog: https://nationalcowboymuseum.org/blog/ 📩 Email: podcast@thecowboy.org 📲Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/ncwhm/ 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nationalcowboymuseum ❎X/Twitter: https://x.com/ncwhm 💼LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-cowboy-&-western-heritage-museum 🗺️ Visit Us: The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, 1700 NE 63rd Street, Oklahoma City, OK, 73111.
