    It's Father's Day and I know if my wonderful dad were still here on Earth he would have absolutely loved this presentation. I watched it with great relish (and a little French mustard, hyukhyuk) not only for my own enjoyment but in honor of my amazing dad.

      We're incredibly honored to receive such a thoughtful ode to your father. Hopefully he's sharing a pint with Hickok and laughing at a fistful of stories, wherever they are!

    I had my picture taken at his grave in the 1950s. They have cleaned it up and fixed it up real nice since then.

    7:43 “Regardless of the details” translates to “this story is 99% BS because nobody brings a knife to a bear fight and wins”.
