Been listening since I was in 5th grade and it’s been getting better and better..some episodes seem to show your own political views tho.

These stories are excellent. I look forward to every episode. I often listen to them more than once to make sure I don’t miss anything.

Writing is excellent. Stories so compelling! Vocal delivery perfect. I am a huge true crime fan but once I heard these episodes couldn’t stop listening.

This is simply having someone read Wikipedia to you.

It’s pretty good but I dont care for the one season one topic approach. I like the format of Wild West Extravaganza much better.

The podcast is amazing! You get lost in the story telling. As someone from Australia who has loved the American west, this is the best podcast. Love the interviews also. The quality and immersion with the sound effects is something you for. I believe it came into affect season 2.

As a cowboy who loves the history of the American West. This is the best podcast to listen to as it gives every detail that it’s like your there living the events.

This brings me back to a time when our great nation was forming. Although many of the stories are troubling because of the violent shoot outs we still have the same sins in todays society. Keep the stories coming!

Chris I love your episodes. Whether it is a story about a lawman, outlaw, or a famous warrior, I find myself equally hooked on the story and eager to hear the whole thing.

Just listened to the Billy the Kid. Amazing storytelling. Can’t wait to start a new series.

Some odd sound mixing in season 1 but overall a fascinating and interesting podcast.

Mr. Wimmer’s soothing voice complements the well researched and beautifully written script for this wonderful podcast. Do yourself a favor; close your eyes and let him take you back to fascinating chapters in our nations history.
stu gatsa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/21/24
The content itself is great but the episodes are WAY too short and have way too many commercial breaks in the middle of it making the episodes hard to follow. Also the way they labeled the episodes was not well thought out making binge listening more complicated than it should be. Would like it...Read full review »

This us one of the best historical podcasts out there. The research is solid. The narration is easy to listen.

Live hearing these historical stories told in an interesting way. Very informative and well researched! Thanks for the stories!
Lordavbc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/24
Thanks for attempting to tell the real stories, especially sussing out the “fake” stories as may be told in the newspapers “of the day,” especially in an attempt to sell more newspapers (I.e., like Ned Christie in Season 33. I only learned about this great podcast in the late Fall (Donner Party...Read full review »

I really enjoyed listening to the 4 episodes on Bass Reeves. I listened to them while on the road to Fort Smith National Historic Park. I look forward to listening to other episodes.

Great storytelling makes the history come alive
DMac MI via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/24
Very informative and exciting. It’s refreshing to here stories that don’t all lead to why one political party is so much worse than the other.
Gamebird7379 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/24
This is one of the greatest podcasts on iTunes. Chris Wimmer is an outstanding narrator and storyteller. The pacing is engaging and easy to follow and does a great job linking persons and events from other seasons. I’ve particularly enjoyed listening to it on road trips through the American West,...Read full review »

Because of the seasons, this show is able to go into a lot of depth on various topics. I’m loving the season on the Nez Perce.

These are great. I have a hard time just sitting still but when I found these, it catches my attention and I can learn, be entertained and reduce the endless scrolling.

S3, E2… Republicans today are pro-slavery??? Gotcha

Not so much detail that you get bored, but enough to keep you engaged and the episodes grab your attention
TwoPonds via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/24
Brilliant podcast. Indeed advertising absolutely rammed down your throat. In fact I got so fed up with it, I’ve made my company stop using it. Stopped using indeed and saved £30k a year in promoted jobs. Love the podcast though.

I love the podcast and have a recommendation for the series about Dodge City: check out the 1950’s radio series called Gunsmoke. Gunsmoke was based in Dodge City. The radio series is not the same as the popular TV show, in fact, the radio series is better in my opinion. Different actors, more...Read full review »

I've been listening to Legends since the first episode. Of the 20+ other podcasts I follow, Legends, and its sister show are, by far, the best! Being from Texas, I have heard, or read, about many of the stories. But, I am always amazed by the facts and details in the episodes. Some I had...Read full review »

Great story telling but the background music is unbearable.
Mr. JBW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/24
Love the podcast... One of my favorite podcasts I listen too drive to and from work. Well researched and very well presented. I’m an old west buff and when I thought I heard it all… I hear things I never knew before… excellent!
Scottd38 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/24
My son shared this podcast with me this year. In January I drove out to Wyoming from Atlanta and listened to the podcast on my way starting at season 1. I have enjoyed every episode but I have to say, the story of Stagecoach Mary warmed my heart so it’s my favorite so far. Stories like Texas...Read full review »

After reading Pat Garrett's book, watching several movies and documentaries, I found this series to be just as if not more informative. It's hard not to take a liking to Billy as he seemed to be an opportunist making the most of what he could. Not condoningany murders but it didn't...Read full review »
whito66 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
While occasionally fascinating, this series focuses far too much on the ‘white’ history of the West, and it’s so called heroes. This series is at its best when telling the stories of the true Americans and the land they had stolen from beneath them. Series 4 is a particular highlight and deserves...Read full review »

You can’t beat “Legends of the Old West” for careful research, solid writing and excellent narration. I’ve listened to every season and I’m on my second listen. It’s never gimmicky and never dry - just great, well-presented history. There are no other western podcasts that even begin to compare...Read full review »

The end of season 28 episode 6 was very moving. The lasting legacy of the virtually unknown Texas Jack had me slack jawed. You did a great job finishing that series the way you did. Bravo Zulu
2 halletts via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/24
I have binged both infamous America and this podcast. Chris is a fantastic narrator, no non sense no random opinions, and just a touch of humor. PLEASE PLEASE keep making these episodes. Good luck on your book! P.S. I was thinking maybe an episode or two PLACES of the Wild West. Maybe...Read full review »

Can’t recommend this enough. Such great storytelling & production. I’ve been listening with my Dad who has lost his eyesight & independence after a stroke .
