I feel like doc scurlock reminds us that even in the face of suffering, death, pain, anguish, and hate. He chose love above all else, the love for his family and his kids. The love for the men he rode with, the love for knowledge and joy. It reminds us to choose happiness and joy over suffering and depression, it's certainly hard at times but doc lost a lot of people he loved. Yet he still continued on spreading joy
And to Josh: the creator and host of Wild West extravaganza. I feel like you're someone who understands how doc felt in life, from what little you've said about growing up, it sounded hard. But now you got a family and kids to care about, you realize all that struggle and hardship made you the man you are today, a loving husband and father who has a loyal fanbase. I know times get hard but you gotta remember how scurlock was.😊
Does anyone else go "Ya!" at the right time with the intro music? Don't worry Josh, Im gonna sponsor you as soon as I start up a business and make some good money. Or maybe I wont. But I always enjoy your show.
This channel is great. I grew up in Tularosa and now live 13 miles south in Alamogordo. These stories are so interesting. Down here in the south end of the basin we also have Oliver Lee and Eugene Rhodes. Been all over their old ranches. I was lucky enough to be employed on Whitesands Missile Range and was able to walk around Rhodes Canyon and stand in Rhodes old house. New Mexico has an amazing history even if it's mostly gunfighter, criminals and such. Lol
I swear I have watched so many videos from you and I have learned so far is you hide some good written jokes in your story’s and you explain everything in detail but you bring it back to light
An assayer analyzes your ore and tells how much gold/silver per ton of rock you can likely expect, basically. However, the definition of receiver has been updated lol Another great video!
As always . . . great stuff. Time and circumstance make a man & his character what is is at any moment in time. You do good work bringing this out in the personalities you introduce us to as as we all take a trip in your excellent time machine
Good stuff! Just now ran across this you tube channel. I've got lazy and old and can't see as well anymore so I don't read much I listen to this kind of stuff. Keep up the good work!
You got me buddy!! I had the person picked out alrdy with whom i was going to drop that Cambells soup knowledge on. smh. I thght i had you all figured out. Guess not. thnx! Great show. im glad he lived so long.
Doc is Buried in Eastland tx, behind the veterans memorial stone at the Eastland Cemetery. Found it some years back looking for some old graves of some relative's.
Awesome stuff as always. Can you imagine how much more we would know about Billy The Kid if Doc had taken an interview , or wrote on his time during the Lincoln County War. I think we would know a great deal more, if an intellectual like Doc would have told his story in a non bragging kind of way. But maybe that would tarnish the legend some . Maybe things are as they should be. Any other way would never capture our attention the way it does. who knows. I have visited Doc's grave in Eastland Texas. I did a shot of Crown , and left the shot glass there with him. He is also from Tallapoosa County Alabama, as you said. I currently live in Tallapoosa County . Please don't hold it against me either. I spent 5 years at Fort Hood Texas . So I get why Texans love being Texans. Anyway , great stuff.
I heard many of your tales and even got my significant other hooked. Great job my pal! Looking forward to binging on all the episodes I have heard yet. So appreciated, so thankful, so blessed! How is that little darling of yours?
We are all dirty little Billy bastards wanting to know what happened to his brothers in arms, and you give it to us in spades in great storytelling that listen to when I'm driving, thank you.
LOL, brilliant, if any of my history teachers had had even a glimmer of your delivery maybe I wouldn't have failed history 'o' level on Parliamentary reform 1832 and Penal Reform - Elizabeth Fry, although ....
Like you , I look into western events to try and find out truth even if my hero looks more....human. I would love for you to do one on Custer. I know he wasn't a cowboy per say , but I would love to hear your take on him. I have found him to be more hero than villain and more brave than reckless. Just a thought.
Josh. I only found your podcast after one the algo-rhythms chased me down and forced me into a gulch and gave me choice of going back to the beginning and episode I of the pods. Or a whipping with a lasso. Obviously i chose épisode 1. Season 1. But it just couldn’t help myself and listen to the most recent offering. Love your work. Admire your progression as a storyteller. But the way you humanise with humour makes it. Rookie question. Where is the intro/ outro music from? And is it you giving it the big Yee-Haw? Best wishes from West Cork in Ireland 🇮🇪
Hello Paddy! No need to start from the beginning, just pick and choose sir! The intro music is something I licensed from a website called Audiojungle and yes, that's me yelling
@@WildWestExtravaganza Googled that. That's what I always understood growing up long long ago in a Galaxy far far away. Haha 😄 . I googled to make sure. Always willing to learn . I try to b 'deliberate', just like Wyatt
Very interesting video as always Josh. Just curious have you read George Coe's autobiography Frontier Fighter? I was curious about it. Doc Scurlock lived a long and interesting life sadly marked by quite a bit of tragedy also. Wonder if Charlie Bowdre's wife went with them to Texas seeing how she was Doc's sister in law.
You bloody tosser Josh! You sucked me right in with the Campbell soup story. Apart from that, g'day from Australia. Love your stories and the way you tell them - history with an occasional laugh.
OMG LMFAO😅😅😅 at an "essayer is like an eswhisperer (ass-whisper however you want to say it) only louder"!!! You come up with some classic stuff omg!!!! Thanks for the laugh!!!
Doc had all the info on Billy and the LCW he would have been a wild wests historians dream !, Pity he never did an interview or write down his biography
blather on brother, blather on :) that about Jess Evans being from over here near the Texarkana area is also in Noble Burns book, as said he was an Evans but raised by a Davis family, and coincidentally enough in the small community here I grew up in, which is about 30 miles west of Texarkana, or T-town as we call it :P, there are both Evans and Davis families in the area, even know some from one that married into the other family lol so could be true about Jess , also BTW, there are Scurlocks on area too lol It is kinda funny that Doc once lived at Maybank TX, that is just down the road from Canton TX where Brushy Bill lived and where his parents are buried lol
Im impressed rhat the theosophical society accepted Scurlock. He must have submitted an original idea or written work that impressed them enough to overlook his lawmess youth. No wonder he refused interviews about his time with the kid. He had alot to lose by digging up those old stories.
just a question before i start, have you seen and heard the video from "chronicles of time" about wyatt earps saloon in tombestone???....... if so then pardon me for reminding, if not then check it out for some good laughs and keep some alka-seltzer handy, you might need it...............................................
This was very well done all the way through and then you knocked it right out of the park at the end with his letter to his daughter. Thank you.
Thank you, sir
Billy Campbell/Campbell Soup.🤣ya got me on that one, lolz. I was already looking it up too…. 😂

I live in granbury and have most of my life. This is the first time I'm ever hearing about doc scurlock living out here.
@@jakemcintosh3782 I always knew he lived in Eastland, the Young Guns movie was absolutely Hollywood crap lol

Definitely.
I always look forward to hearing from Josh.
Great story teller.
Blown away at his words at the end there.
Very enjoyable. Of all the Kid associates I think Doc is the most interesting and most likable.
I've always been interested in the real history of Josiah Doc Scurlock. Excellent episode! Thanks for sharing!!!
Well done and deserving of at least a couple coffees. And the pix in the newsletter... What a treasure! Thank you, Sir.
Thank you!
Brilliant, the mix of humour and well researched history is a niche all your own. Keep it up young (ish) man

I absolutely love hearing the tales of the surrounding cast of the Regulators. Thanks for this episode and looking forward to more about them!
Well, you knocked another one out of the park!!! Much thanks...so entertaining!!!
Thanks Chip

Just started listening to this one. I know it’ll be good, so here’s a preemptive 👍
Thanks
Every episode is just great. Love Josh's story telling. It is fucking great. I laughed so hard during the Bass Reeves wrap up.
Found you a few weeks ago and really appreciate all your hard work.
Thanks! Welcome aboard!
I swear I have watched so many videos from you and I have learned so far is you hide some good written jokes in your story’s and you explain everything in detail but you bring it back to light
Thanks Josh. Praying for your consulting/podcast instruction enterprise!
Thanks for another "Gem". You always save me hrs of research on the somewhat obscure figures in western history while making it entertaining. 👍✌😎
My pleasure
One take away from this. We should all keep journals because in 150 years someone, or more, will wonder what "the old days" were like.
Yep
Love your show ,no ashes dust to dust from the earth and back to it
Great shit
Thank you
Great work. Your presentations get better with every episode.
Thanks

Ha!
Lol! Every time I you brings a new personality to your vids you have a almost a new chapter for a different personality. Love that.
Josh I did barely 20 sec of an internet search and found John Reilly makes movies with Will Ferrell. Not sure why you didn’t include that nugget. 😅
Tradgedy can make or break us ❤ Great channel im addicted to it🏁
Thanks!

You need to read, "Anything for Billy" by McMurtry.

Very interesting man.
Never knew anything of him. Now I do. Many thanks.
Fantastic content!!!! More plz
as usual, excellent dude..your the bestest , keep'em coming
A life not usually covered.
I think Doc was the most interesting of all the Regulators.
He was very interesting! Got some more interesting characters next week.
We are all dirty little Billy bastards wanting to know what happened to his brothers in arms, and you give it to us in spades in great storytelling that listen to when I'm driving, thank you.
Good show....aside from the child loss. You and Bob Boze Bell. 👍🍻
This episode should be called everbody else but doc
LOL, brilliant, if any of my history teachers had had even a glimmer of your delivery maybe I wouldn't have failed history 'o' level on Parliamentary reform 1832 and Penal Reform - Elizabeth Fry, although ....
Poor Dock. That letter to his daughter was really moving.

Interesting content very well done. So Doc was a real doctor.,.. well almost 👍
Thank you
You're welcome, Jake
"An ass whisperer, only louder." Got an audible chuckle out of that.

Definitely doing a series on Custer in the future
Idk why but I wanted the Campbell soup thing to be true. Awesome video!

Just parts of it
Doc had hell a case of cauliflower ear… You know he ain’t gonna just stand there and 🩸 . He definitely skinned them smoke wagons
Good stuff
You bloody tosser Josh! You sucked me right in with the Campbell soup story. Apart from that, g'day from Australia. Love your stories and the way you tell them - history with an occasional laugh.
G'day mate
OMG LMFAO😅😅😅 at an "essayer is like an eswhisperer (ass-whisper however you want to say it) only louder"!!! You come up with some classic stuff omg!!!! Thanks for the laugh!!!
💯 Josh!
Lol fucker you got me with the Campbell's soup bit. I'm well versed enough in old west history that I usually know when you are joking.
Lol
Doc had all the info on Billy and the LCW he would have been a wild wests historians dream !, Pity he never did an interview or write down his biography
I don't think people cared. Billy's own brother lived till 1930. One reporter literally said "who cares". It's crazy how much info we lost.
I thought you were going to say Jessie changed his name to Bob and started a restaurant chain
Another wonderful episode. I usually listen on spotify but thought I would comment here and say excellent job as always.
Thank you, sir

Small world!
@@WildWestExtravaganza aint it, and its round too lol :P
So you’re halfway thru and not a word about doc yet
He did state near the beginning to skip to the 21 minute mark for that.
You don't listen 4 shit big mouth, might work on that
Found it in an encyclopedia Jesse Evans changed his name from Jesse James cause of the notoriety of the name
I work at Evergreen Cemetery in Colorado Springs. What was Riley date of death?
10 Feb 1916 according to findagrave. Says he was buried at Mt Olivet cemetery in Wheat Ridge
@@WildWestExtravaganza thank you.....we also have an r.w. McCarty who is supposed to be a cousin to Billy
Well it's for sure and certain ol Doc Scurlock bares little resemblance to Kiefer Southerland

Great entry! I gotta say tho, with ears like that, if he'd have turned the wrong way the wind would have blown him off his horse...
Hey.. I’m from Alabama! It’s ok.. by all means.. hold that against me! 😂
What was the one last job Doc did with BTK to get a grub stake??
If I'm not mistaken it was to help drive a passel of Chisum's horses to the Texas panhandle
