  19. Episode 48: The Big Valley with Rachel Kovaciny

    Show notes

    New guest Rachel Kovaciny joins the show to discuss two standout episodes of The Big Valley. We begin with "A Time to Kill" (Season 1, Episode 18), where Jarrod's old law school friend—played by William Shatner—comes for a visit, only to fall under suspicion when a Secret Service agent identifies him as a possible counterfeiter.

    Next, we dive into "Showdown in Limbo" (Season 2, Episode 27), which follows Heath as he teams up with a U.S. marshal and his son to transport an outlaw, played by L.Q. Jones, to jail. Their journey takes a dangerous turn when the outlaw gang catches up with them in a deserted ghost town.

    For listeners new to The Big Valley, Rachel provides a great introduction to the series, and these two episodes are excellent starting points.

    Show notes

    Artist David Lambert returns to talk about John Ford's first feature-length film, Straight Shooting. We explore Ford's early Hollywood days, his collaborations with Harry Carey, and the striking visual storytelling that's already on display from the very start of his career.

    We also touch on D.W. Griffith's The Battle of Elderbush Gulch, a key influence on Ford. He references it directly later on in Stagecoach.
