Arkey Blue’s Silver Dollar was highlighted on the latest 26-minute episode of Evan Stern’s “Vanishing Postcards” podcast.
The episode, posted April 22 and currently available for listening on Spotify, iTunes and Google, includes interviews with the honkytonk’s bartenders, local Hoot Gibson and Rebel Roxie.
Arkey himself, however, declined to be interviewed on the record, and gave the podcast host a CD, saying his life story is told in his music.
One of Arkey’s tunes, “The Back Streets of Bandera,” closes the episode.
The spirit of the Cowboy Capital of the World and the appeal of Arkey Blue’s Silver Dollar is highlighted in the episode.
