Way Out West

Step back in time to the crackle of a campfire under a starlit sky as we explore the small but meaningful comforts that kept cowboys going on the trail. In this episode, dive into the rituals and traditions that made coffee more than just a drink, beans more than just a meal, and the campfire more than just a source of heat.

From the practical ingenuity of the chuck wagon cook to the moments of camaraderie shared around the fire, discover how these simple comforts created a sense of home and connection in a rugged and unpredictable world. Plus, reflect on how these timeless traditions inspire us today, whether it’s over a cup of coffee or a backyard barbecue.
