Henry Handsome Lived & Died

Narrated dark comedy Western series

This show was binge-ready, but now it's not. 😢

It may have switched to an "always on" status, or the creator may have stopped using Season Number and/or Episode Number values. Or they're inconsistent with their tagging, have removed episodes, or made other changes—intentional or not—leading to a less-than-binge-ready listener experience.

Or... it could be our fault. We might have listed the show too early, and episodes are still releasing. Regardless, it's currently in a state that disqualifies it from being listed in our directory, as it's no longer binge-ready.

Yikes! Something odd is happening with this show making the episodes inaccessible or the entire show no longer binge-ready.

Show synopsis

This show uses machine-generated voices

Henry Handsome was an outlaw cowboy—at least that’s how the legend goes.

Henry Handsome Lived & Died examines the creation, evolution, proliferation, dissemination and degradation of American folklore. Through 30 different short stories, the character, vague idea, false memory, misattributed anecdote or influence of the titular Henry Handsome does everything from change the course of American media to sculpt modern day knowledge of manifest destiny. Together, the collection represents the stories that create and define a culture, how those stories are told, if they ever were to begin with—and if any of that matters at all.

Each story was written, recorded, narrated and produced by Elliot Matson.
