Grandma Never Shared Her Pie

Hearken, Noble Herd!

What happens when a classically trained Shakespearean actor trades the stage for the saddle? In this lighthearted Cowboy Cantos tale, Montgomery “Monty” Pike heads west in search of honest work while waiting for his big break on the stage. The ranch crew quickly discovers that Monty doesn’t speak like any cowboy they’ve ever met. Every greeting sounds like a royal proclamation, every branding becomes a dramatic performance, and every attempt to move cattle is delivered in the language of Shakespeare. The only problem? The cows aren’t impressed. Join Jason Curtman for another original Cowboy Cantos story filled with ranch humor, memorable characters, and a timeless lesson from the American West. Today’s Moral:There’s a time to perform... and a time to get the job done. This is a public episode.
