We have come a long way in our production quality since we started. We did our best to REMASTER some “oldies but goodies” and ensure the production offers a better listening experience. Not perfect, but much better. Hope you enjoy!
Step into the wild and fascinating history of the Chicken Ranch, the infamous Texas establishment that served as more than just a brothel—it became a cultural icon. From its humble beginnings during the Great Depression to its heyday as a "community service" institution, and ultimately its dramatic fall at the hands of a crusading TV reporter, this episode dives deep into the stories that made the Chicken Ranch legendary.
We’ll explore the quirky cast of characters, the unwritten rules that kept it running for decades, and the surprising ways it became a fixture of small-town Texas life. Along the way, we share some laugh-out-loud anecdotes and nod to the Hollywood version of the tale in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.
Whether you’re a history buff, a fan of Texas lore, or just looking for a good laugh, this episode is a cheeky and compelling ride through one of Texas’ most scandalously beloved legends.
