Guest on The Joe Rogan Experience · 2 books · 1 episode across 1 podcast

Taylor Sheridan appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience to discuss his background, creative inspirations, and the historical contexts that influence his storytelling. During the conversation, Sheridan recounted that he had read Larry McMurtry's acclaimed novel 'Lonesome Dove' right before attending college, an experience that deeply inspired him and ultimately sparked his ambition to become a storyteller. Sheridan also brought up S.C. Gwynne's historical work 'Empire of the Summer Moon' during a detailed discussion regarding Comanche raids and early Texas history. He admitted that he was entirely unaware of certain historical realities until he read Gwynne's book, an encounter that left such a strong impression on him that he later invited the author to appear as a guest on his own show.
