New from Texas Monthly: America's Girls

The original Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad burst onto the field back in 1972—the same year Title IX passed, the same year Deep Throat came out, and a year before Roe v. Wade. Sarah Hepola digs into the untold stories behind the global pop culture phenomenon, from the stripper who allegedly inspired the squad’s creation, to a scandalous Playboy cover shoot that was partly a battle over fair wages, to the ongoing debate about sexuality and women’s bodies in a post-#MeToo world. The result is a vibrant mix of history, cultural criticism, and storytelling, featuring interviews with New Yorker writer Jia Tolentino, award-winning novelist Ben Fountain, Oscar-nominated director Dana Adam Shapiro, local television sports legend Dale Hansen, folk-writing hero Joe Nick Patoski, and a whole bunch of cheerleaders whose names you don’t know yet—but should.

Texas Monthly is the curator of the world's best barbecue. Daniel Vaughn is The Monthly's gift to the BBQ world. Few people are as knowledgeable, traveled, and experienced in this great genre of our national cuisine. He has eaten enough barbecue for an entire Texas high school stadium on a Friday night...and that's just in one month. Already an excellent writer, it also turns out he's got a pretty decent voice and interview style. Interviewing Tootsie Tomanetz was an appropriate first edition, and very enjoyable. Can't wait for what's to come.
