Why You'd Regret Being a Wild West Outlaw

Get early episodes & ad-free audio on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DrowsyHistorian You’re twenty-seven, sunburnt, hungry, and out of options. The ranch fired you. The saloon cut your credit. One bad decision later, you’ve joined a gang of starving men chasing a dream that never existed. What follows is not glory — but frostbite, betrayal, and quiet erasure in a canyon no one remembers. This is not the story of the Wild West you were promised. This is the one that ends in a frozen mine, talking to soot sketches and forgetting your own name. 🛏️ Drowsy Historian’s Favorite Sleep Tools Looking to upgrade your nighttime routine?
