New guest Rachel Kovaciny joins the show to discuss two standout episodes of The Big Valley. We begin with "A Time to Kill" (Season 1, Episode 18), where Jarrod's old law school friend—played by William Shatner—comes for a visit, only to fall under suspicion when a Secret Service agent identifies him as a possible counterfeiter.Next, we dive into "Showdown in Limbo" (Season 2, Episode 27), which follows Heath as he teams up with a U.S. marshal and his son to transport an outlaw, played by L.Q. Jones, to jail. Their journey takes a dangerous turn when the outlaw gang catches up with them in a deserted ghost town.For listeners new to The Big Valley, Rachel provides a great introduction to the series, and these two episodes are excellent starting points. "A Time to Kill": https://youtu.be/wHOcPZDA1D4?si=RWm0VwPMcmIbhGKS"Showdown in Limbo": https://youtu.be/vpYRo88BMtc?si=GKVuRx9a2ZbcYf42Rachel Kovaciny Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelkovacinyauthor/Website: http://www.rachelkovaciny.com/Blog: https://hamlette.blogspot.com/Book Blog: https://theedgeoftheprecipice.blogspot.com/Tumbleweeds and TV Cowboys Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tumbleweedsandtvcowboys/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tumbleweedsandtvcowboysLetterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/TumbleweedsTV/X: https://x.com/TumbleweedTVpodEmail: [email protected]'s Favorite Productions: https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/
