Western authors Larry and Tom Richardson welcome you to the inaugural episode of their new podcast "Where the West Commences", dedicated to the love of all things west. Being the first episode, they felt it only proper to introduce you to their backstories to give you a better idea of how they developed this passion for the rich legacy of the American West and the profound ways it shaped our culture. In future episodes they will share their thoughts on western movies, the music of the west, TV westerns, cowboy slang, iconic western destinations, western poetry, art, and a whole bunch of fun western trivia. So, let's get the party started.
