Howdy and Welcome back to our final episode of our Deep Dive into the life of Bass Reeves.

This has been an amazing series and thank you for all the support through emails, on social media, I can’t even explain how cool it is having a community to share my love of western history with! Y’all are awesome!

This week, we will talk about Bass’s retirement and his later years, talk about some common questions on Bass Reeves and finish with our discussion on the recent series Lawmen; Bass Reeves.

Going forward, I am going to release a few one off episodes while I work on the next Deep Dive, I’m thinking about going back to the time of the trappers, what do y’all think? If you have any suggestions, please email me!

I don’t know if I’ll have episodes available next week as I am also working on starting a Youtube, just add that to the to-do-list shall we.. but I will try my best!

But seriously, thank you everyone for the support and kind words, it means the world to me and makes me work that much harder to release the best content I can.

Follow me on Instagram and Tiktok at Wild West Deep Dives and as always, join me on Patreon! You’ll get access to episodes one week early and also access to some bonus episodes!
