Gregory Harrison—TV favorite remembered for Dr. "Gonzo" Gates on Trapper John, M.D. and pioneer Levi Zendt in the epic miniseries Centennial—saddles up with Rob and RJ Word to talk Westerns, remakes, and riding alongside legends.  In 1988, he acquired the rights to Red River, produced a television remake, and cast James Arness—fresh out of retirement—as Thomas Dunson, with Bruce Boxleitner by his side.  Harrison packed the film with cameo salutes to classic TV cowboys, from Guy Madison and Ty Hardin to John Lupton, creating what felt like a living Western hall of fame.   Born in Avalon on California's Catalina Island, Harrison shares a heartfelt story of outfitting John Wayne and his Hollywood pals in yachting gear during summer stopovers—a teenage encounter that ignited his lifelong love of the Duke. Listen in, and if you enjoy the conversation, follow and share A Word on Westerns with fellow lovers of Western entertainment!
