Episode #144: The Ride Back

Today we are bringing you a first on the show, a radio western. Now, typically radio westerns could be quite generic. But there were a few that from the very first lines of the story were simply stunning. Such is the case with this gritty early episode of the series "Gunsmoke." Discovered only last year, this recording has been a holy grail for radio collectors and the star of the show for decades.
