There are very few items in North American culture that carry the same iconic weightiness as the cowboy hat. It's the singular item of apparel that can be worn in any corner of the globe, by most anyone, and receive instantaneous acknowledgment. As the old cowboy saying goes, “It’s the last thing you take off and the first thing that is noticed.”
Interestingly, the history of the iconic cowboy hat is not that old, and in this episode we talk about John B. Stetson and his iconic "cowboy's" hat. And of course, we’ll have the cowboy glossary word of the week. So why not ride along?
