In the Old West, cowboys didn’t waste words—and they sure didn’t dress them up. In this punchy episode, dig into the colorful world of cowboy slang: where it came from, what it meant on the trail, and why plain speaking still matters today.

Learn the stories behind classic sayings like "All hat and no cattle" and "Ride for the brand," and find out how a few honest words can still cut through the noise of modern life.

Saddle up for a fast-talking, plain-shooting ride through the language of the West—and take on this week’s Talk Like a Cowboy Challenge!
