VOTW co-host Bunker de France on Gunsmoke

Bunker appears as one of the hired hands for the bad guys. The episode is called “Matt’s Love Story” and it is the highest rated Gunsmoke episode in the show’s run. The scene starts with Bunker riding in and bringing his horse to a stop while he’s dismounting. He remains in the scene in the background. Look for the cowboy wearing a purple neck rag. Bunker’s pal, Victor French, is the guy Matt is searching for when Matt encounters an accident and suffers from amnesia.

Where, oh Where has our Facebook Gone?

We have been notified that Voices of the West has had its Facebook account permanently disabled.

Why?

We don’t know. FB never is straight with its customers.

All the company says is there’s been a violation of its Terms & Conditions–but which one(s) is never clear.

We don’t even have the opportunity to go to FB “court” to learn more or even appeal their decision. Just “you’re outta here,” and don’t let the barn door hit you on the backside on your way out.

Thanks to all of our former FB friends for your support. And, to FB and META–go pound sand.
