Andy Skipper currently resides in Belfast, Ireland, though he is from London originally. He's been knee deep in tech since he was 12 years old, as a hobby programmer. He left college early to start his first software development agency, prior to joining the startup world during the .com era. He loves tech, but loves people as well - which lead him into his current venture. Outside of tech, he is a bedroom guitarist, an amateur photographer, and a Dad - which means he plays a log of Minecraft and Roblox.

The media portrayal of the wild west is filled with gunfights in the middle of the street, bank robberies, and vigilantes. In fact, it is very difficult to find a media portrayal that doesn’t use the wild west as a backdrop for some struggle of good vs. evil and of criminals vs. lawmen.
But how accurate is this portrayal? Have Western movies been lying to us?
Learn more about just how wild the wild west was and the accuracy of its portrayal in movies on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
