Step into the wild and untamed west of Broward County, where history echoes through the dusty streets of Pioneer City.
Once a bustling replica of Dodge City, Kansas, with its own train, shoot-outs, and dancing girls, it vanished as quickly as it came. But the legacy it left behind is etched in the annals of South Florida history.

Join your host, Bill Monty, for another captivating TALK down memory lane on "Tales From South Florida." From the roar of revolvers to the whispers of bygone eras, to the unique themed restaurant that sprang from the loins of Pioneer City to the tranquil nature center that exists now, immerse yourself in the stories that shaped the soul of this captivating region.
