Episode #187 – HOW VIOLENCE AND FIREARMS BECAME A PART OF AMERICAN IDENTITY
Join us for an engaging conversation with our two guests, HENRY C. PARKE, “True West Magazine” Film Editor and 2 time Emmy award winner KIRK ELLIS. Henry takes the lead and gives us his scoop on current Western films and TV shows with this month’s HENRY’S WESTERN ROUND-UP. We take an in-depth look at Kirk Ellis’ latest release, THEY KILL PEOPLE: BONNIE AND CLYDE, A HOLLYWOOD REVOLUTION, AND AMERICA’S OBSESSION WITH GUNS AND OUTLAWS. This riveting and important book is the story of the outlaws whose real lives were anything but glamorous. Most of all, it is the story of how violence and a predilection for firearms became a fundamental part of American identity.
