Regulators: Mount up! The Governor of New Mexico issued a press release on March 13th stating that Young Guns 3: Dead or Alive will be filmed in New Mexico, and that Emilio Estevez will be reprising the role of Billy the Kid, “alongside original cast members Lou Diamond Phillips
and Christian Slater.” This is great news for Western fans! Join me today as I share what we know about the plot of Young Guns 3: Dead or Alive, as well as a few predictions (just for fun). Also discussed are Jim French, José Chávez y Chávez, Arkansas Dave, Rudabaugh, Henry Newton Brown, and Pat Garrett. The plot reveal is at the 16:50 mark.

State of the Wild West Extravaganza 2025
My name’s Josh, and this is the Wild West Extravaganza, a history podcast where we discuss all the real-life people and events from the Old West. Today’s show is somewhat different. Rather than talk history, I thought I’d share a few announcements. Sort of a State of the Podcast address, just my way of touching base and letting you know what’s going on and what to expect going forward.

Jesse James | Resurrection (Part 8)
In the late 1940s, a man calling himself J. Frank Dalton made a startling announcement: He said that the outlaw Jesse James had not been killed by Bob Ford in 1882. According to Dalton, the entire thing was a hoax, and he – Dalton – was the REAL Jesse James. Join me today as we examine the validity of Dalton’s claims. We’ll also take a look at other Jesse James
imposters, as well as the 1995 DNA test. Also discussed are Al Jennings, Alfred Packer, Frank James, and my willingness to accept bribes!
