    Mar 18 2026

    Send a text

    Step into the dusty streets of Cascade, Montana, to meet a true pioneer of the American frontier: Stagecoach Mary Fields. Born into slavery, Mary moved West to find a life of independence that few women of her time could imagine. Standing six feet tall and never without her Smith & Wesson, she became the first African American woman star route mail carrier in United States history.


    ​In this episode, we explore the incredible history of the Wild West through the eyes of a woman who was as tough as she was kind.

    From fending off wolves and outlaws to her legendary 100% mail delivery success rate, Mary Fields defined what it meant to be a Western pioneer. We’ll dive into her unique relationship with the local community, her friendship with a young Gary Cooper, and why her legacy remains a vital part of Black Western history.


    ​Whether you're a fan of untold history podcasts or stories of the American frontier, the life of Stagecoach Mary is a masterclass in grit and resilience.

    ​In this episode, we dive into the sticky, sweet, and salty history of how a simple experiment in the kitchen of a small restaurant in a small Canadian town, created the most polarizing pizza in history.
