This time I talk about the evolution of the Western in fiction - both on the page and on screen - and discuss big themes of the Western and how deconstruction has affected their presentation. I also cover the samurai western (e.g., Seven Samurai), the fantasy western (Stephen King's Dark Tower, e.g.), and the sci-fi western (Firefly!).
