Red Cloud’s War: End Game

Legends of the Old West Podcast are excited to introduce the fifth episode in their new season, Red Cloud’s War: End Game. A heroic civilian makes an incredible ride to send news of the battle at Fort Phil Kearny to the U.S. Army. The army is shocked by the event and quickly makes changes within its ranks. The following spring, Red Cloud resumes his attacks on the outposts in the Powder River Country.

Politicians in the east are stunned by Red Cloud’s ability to keep a multi-tribal coalition in place for two fighting seasons in a row. They see no end to the bloodshed, so they finally agree to Red Cloud’s demands. A Native American army forces the United States to sue for peace for the first and only time in its history. Red Cloud celebrates his victory, but soon realizes it was minor when compared with the unstoppable force of the growing nation.

Biography:

Danny co-founded Cowboy Lifestyle Network (CLN), now a western media powerhouse with over 4 million fans. CLN’s success reflects his deep understanding of the western community—not just its spirit, but its economic heartbeat—connecting businesses, events, and enthusiasts in a thriving industry. With this massive reach, Danny has become a trusted voice on rodeo culture, horse care, and Western traditions, covering events from the Houston Livestock Show to the Super Bowl Party Trophy Bar.

His journey to building this platform began in Arizona, where he spent eight years in Pinal County’s 4-H program, learning ranching by caring for lambs and getting to know the land like an old friend. At Arizona State University, Danny shone as a two-time "All American" diver and team captain, graduating with a business degree that sparked his entrepreneurial drive. After a decade in corporate management sharpening his leadership skills, he launched CLN.

"Giving back has always mattered to me," Danny shares. His support for Horses Help, Harris Brothers Charity Foundation, and a 25-year CLN Christmas Toy Drive proves it, building community trust through action.
