There's so much news happening around the world that we're somehow supposed to stay on top of.

That's why we launched The Big Take.

It's a daily podcast from Bloomberg and I Heart Radio that turns down the volume a bit

to give you some space to think.

I'm Wes Kosova.

Each weekday I dig into one important story and talk about why it matters.

Listen to The Big Take on The I Heart Radio App, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen.

Hey and welcome to the short stuff.

I'm Josh and there's Chuck and there's Dave and this is short stuff.

So getty up partner or else calamity Jane's going to shoot you in the foot.

No, I tried to and I was like, I don't have the emotional investment for this.

Okay.

I'll bet.

A great character of the Old West.

This is a tough one to research because when you're researching some of these people from

this era of the Old West, you start to realize and historians admit as much that it's

hard to get to the real truth because nobody really knows.

A lot of the information we have on these characters from back then are very much written by people

who wrote their bios for the Wild West shows they did, which are obviously going to be

changed and pumped up.
