Blaze of Glory: The Story of Cowboy Bob

In the early 90s, north Texas was hit with a rash of bank
robberies, all featuring a quirky-looking, mustached bandit the
feds called Cowboy Bob. Bob was prolific, and his MO was smoother
than silk—no muss, no fuss, in and out in 60 seconds with a satchel
full of cash. The FBI figured they were dealing with a pro, a man
with years of heists under his belt and nerves of chilled steel.
They couldn’t have been more wrong…and in more ways than one. Join
us for the tale of one of America’s strangest serial bank robbers,
whose criminal career wasn’t so much about the money as it was
about the thrill.
