The Storytelling Cowboy

Ever since I started watching Yellowstone, I’ve developed a completely unexpected appreciation for cowboys. (Can’t wait to watch more of Taylor Sheridan’s work).  So when I read Justin Radtke’s bio and saw the words Dallas Cowboys, I got disproportionately excited… only to discover this wasn’t going where I thought it was. Turns out, Justin isn’t …

‘Over the Rainbow’ is a Song about Detention
