How did a song, a stripper, and one man’s vision create America’s Team? In this fascinating Arroyo Grande episode, Raymond Arroyo sits down with Burk Murchison, son of Clint Murchison Jr., the original owner and visionary behind the Dallas Cowboys. Together, they uncover the surprising origins of the team, the building of Texas Stadium, and how the Cowboys Cheerleaders came to be.
Burk shares incredible stories from his book Hole in the Roof, including how his father bought the Washington Redskins’ fight song and used it to secure the Dallas franchise, and how innovations like luxury suites and corporate sponsorships reshaped the NFL. He also reflects on Tom Landry’s genius, the Cowboys’ decades of success, and how the team’s founding ideals contrast with today’s NFL.
A lively, eye-opening look at how Clint Murchison Jr.’s imagination built America’s Team—and forever changed the game.
