In the dusty crossroads town of Kanab, Utah, the year was 1911—and democracy was about to get a surprise makeover. What began as a satirical prank by frustrated young men turned into the most unexpected political shake-up in frontier history: the election of an all-woman town council.

Part one of this dramatized two-part episode sets the stage with a cast of formidable frontier women, flustered cowboys, tormented marshals, and cattle in the crosshairs. We unpack the fiery election, local newspaper feuds, livestock on the lam, and the first tremors of change in a town that didn’t know what hit it. Featuring real journal entries, historical detail, period sound design, and that AM radio drama flair you love.

From slingshot bans to citywide moo-hem, the petticoats are here—and they didn’t come to knit.
