Episode "Tall Heart, Short Temper" of the 1950s historical drama Television anthology series, Death Valley Days, tells the story of Powell "Pike" Landusky, whom the town is named after. The episode includes how he and his business partner were captured by a war party of Brule Indians. Landusky, notorious for his bad temper and quarrelsome behavior, rampaged against his captors with a frying pan. The warrior braves were struck with awe by the violent spectacle and retreated, even leaving two ponies to calm him down.
