  • From investigating the Fountain disappearance to working as Sheriff of Dona Ana County, New Mexico to being appointed as the Collector of Customs by Teddy Roosevelt himself, Pat Garrett seemed to be living up to the notoriety gained from killing Billy the Kid. Unfortunately it would all come crashing down. Just a few years after the turn of the century, an aging Garrett would find himself out of a job and deeply in debt. Things would even get so bad that Pat’s family property was seized and auctioned, and the once proud lawman was reduced to begging friends for money in order to feed his family. And then came the goats. Ah, the goats. Pat leased his remaining land to an easy going cowpoke named Wayne Brazel; a decision that would ultimately cost Garrett his life. Who killed Pat Garrett? The answer might surprise you! #history #wildwest #western

    Who killed Pat Garrett? Was Wayne Brazel the lone shooter or did he have a little help? Was Deacon Jim Miller involved? Or was it just aliens? Drop you theories here in the comments!

    It was Brushy Bill Roberts who killed Pat Garret 😂

  • @rongreen4536

    Pat Garrett was a man of his times, no better or worse than most in that day and time.

  • @ninohiggs6339

    Billy told Pat before he shot him..." I' ll make ya famous"...and the rest is history.

  • @jamesdeen3011

    Aliens, Aliens?its a pure fact that Pat Garrett was an alien. 6 foot 5 inches. No one during this time was this tall. His fighting capabilities were like screwing with a limp noodle as he lost all of them. Great work Josh for proving he was an alien. Also Tom Horn and Jim Miller arrived on the same ship. Because of their duplicity in law enforcement thier over all purpose was not to trust anyone in government unless they have at the very least 4 pronouns.

    „You will never be like me. You will just be the man that shot Billy The Kid“

  • @Sandbankfight

    Thank you for all your hard work bro. Your history documentarys are of the finest quality.

  • @Jhony-cq8oq

    dude you're knowledge of the Old West is off the hook 🪝.

  • @markpaul-ym5wg

    The guy got off the wagon because he didnt want to be in the line of fire.This was all a set up to murder pat garett.

  • @TGBurgerGaming

    Bro. The way you linked this to Billy Kids photo proving the existence of aliens. You are an effin legend.

  • @denisethetford9178

    Ive never been just really interested in Old West documentaries/podcasts, but you, Josh, have an incredible way of sucking people in to the actual stories, not the myths. I appreciate that.

  • @EmR1001

    Keep it up Josh. Your podcast always makes the workday better. Great job as always.

  • @stevecornell8260

    Awesome content! Thank you for all you do.

  • @johnbyrd7400

    Well, as per usual. Another great episode. Well said, btw. It's almost impossible to find anyone who is all good especially when the idea of what it means to be good is largely up to interpretation. The vast majority of people have done something that someone else would consider bad by another person at some point or another. "Speaking of Cox," in the end we're all caught up in the great big circle jerk of life. Keep up the awesome work, man!

  • @jayledermann7701

    Roflol , I knew I would enjoy an old west story , however I never thought I would enjoy a good cowboys vs aliens story. Well done.

  • @bensutherland6871

    I'm excited every time there's a new episode Thanks for your work

  • @bullrider58

    As a Minnesotan who has studied much of my state’s history, I’m looking forward to your looking into and expanding!

  • @thebigshow6102

    I found your comment about the name“Prentice” hilarious!! Prentice is an old family name in my family. A male child has carried that name in my family for at least 5 generations going back to the civil war era, I carry it as my middle name and in honor of my father and grandfather who both carried it, I named my first son “Prentice” however I took Ren out of the middle and he is known as “Ren”. I too, being a history student couldn’t let it die.

    I owned a house in Minneapolis, MN, from 2015-2017, built in 1904...always found it interesting walking the floors thinking about the history happening at the time, and decades later(111 years at the time)....like Pat being killed 4 years after it was built...the family living there at the time reading it in the newspaper in the same living room or parlor I was sitting in!(for example).

  • @cosmicvinyl2937
