Inside Rodeo Time Ft: Ty Rogers EP:78

WEBVTT
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:25.199
And we're saddled up for episode number 7.
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:28.800
Welcome back to Throckmorton, Texas.
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:33.520
We've been in Florida the past two, but we are finally back at home base.
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:41.359
And joining me today, all the way from Kentucky, the Bluegrass State played basketball for the University of Kentucky.
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:41.920
Yeah.
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:42.640
Yeah.
00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:45.039
Ty Rogers, dude.
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:45.600
Welcome in.
00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:46.799
Yeah, good to be here.
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:48.799
Maybe you didn't play basketball for.
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:49.840
They wouldn't have me.
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:52.799
I think I was about a foot shorter than any man on that roster.
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:53.119
Yeah.
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.159
Yeah, you probably needed a tan.
00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:01.520
I needed a tan, I needed a growth spurt, and then I think in high school I was probably about a buck 30.
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:06.159
So I needed I needed some more beef on me, too.
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:12.159
So Ty Rogers, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you I'm gonna give the Ty Rogers 30,000 foot view.
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:12.640
Alright.
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:14.640
If nobody knew who Ty was.
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:16.640
Um and they don't.
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:18.719
And yeah.
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:22.000
God fear Man.
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:22.719
Oh yeah.
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:29.920
Um dude, you are a you are a uh a part of a culture.
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:30.879
What's the right word?
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:32.000
You're uh you're a part of a culture.
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.400
I should have cut that word short, like a cult, some people call it.
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:34.879
Cult.
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:36.959
Culture.
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:38.159
Yeah, yeah.
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:39.200
That's funny.
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:43.120
You are a part of a culture though that is uh pretty cool.
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:46.799
I've always been fans of people who can can like create their own atmosphere.
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:47.120
Yeah.
00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:56.000
Seems like y'all have created your own at over at Brisbee's.
00:01:56.400 --> 00:02:03.280
Yeah, it's uh it's a cool thing that he's got going over there because you know, y'all pretty much the same.
00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:12.000
We live in the middle of nowhere, so liking who you work with there is even more important because that's who you're gonna be hanging out with all the time.
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:16.719
And um it's uh it's a pretty fragile thing too, which you get it.
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:19.759
There's people from all over that will send applications in.
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:26.800
And you know, how much can you figure out about somebody from a one-minute video that they're taking?
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.800
They're nervous, you know, they're like, it's just it's it's really hard to figure people out.
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:36.080
And uh, but yeah, we've we've just been real fortunate, you know.
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:45.759
Dale's uh we have people come in and out, but yeah, the core group that's there, we've kind of just the ones that stay are all just real good keepers, you know.
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:49.360
So are a piece of that culture or add to it or for sure.
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:51.680
What would how would you describe that culture?
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:58.639
Uh everyone there is just like, and it all stems from Dale.
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:03.120
He's a remarkably disciplined man, if I will say anything about him.
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:07.919
Like he it's not in him to half half ass anything.
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:09.039
Do you all censor here?
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:10.319
Can half half butt anything.
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:15.919
So uh like if he's gonna do something, he's he's full tilt.
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:17.919
So it starts with him, you know.
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:25.039
He's uh man, he's just so disciplined on his walk with Christ and everything, and and gives us a solid role model.
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.400
And then just like everything with like the food he eats, like his gym regim.
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:44.960
I mean, he's just like like military, like yeah, and and you know, so you get there, like, you know, I moved 1,300 miles away from my folks to be out here, and that's like, you know, I was still I'm 27 now.
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.680
I think I was 23 when I got to DP's place.
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.319
Still a pretty impressive impressionable age right there, you know.
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:59.840
So having him to look up to and and uh you know kind of follow right in his tracks with that stuff.
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:00.560
It's been really great.
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.400
It was a good it was a really good time of my life for me to get out there.
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:10.560
Like I was I went to college and made it through college and didn't quite knew.
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.759
I always thought I wanted to go to law school, so law school.
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:21.600
Yeah, I know, and uh I just kind of said that in high school and just kind of stuck with I was like, yeah, you know, like law school, you know.
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:27.439
So I was uh but you have to have a declared major, and I was like, well, I like working outside.
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:32.639
I was an ag major in college and believe it or not, those that had good acceptance rates into law school.
00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:41.439
So I rolled with that, and then when I graduated, I went and worked at a law office for like eight months and could was not me, man.
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.199
Like I just and that was kind of like a you know, I was 22, 23-ish.
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.360
It was that was like when life starts hitting you, because I like this is like the only thing I thought.
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:51.439
I was like law school, like what are you gonna do?
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:52.720
Yeah, I had no idea.
00:04:52.879 --> 00:05:10.399
And then uh yeah, I'd I'd kind of the cowboying thing was sparked like kind of sparked my interest, and I'll I I grew up working on cattle, so I just always but like you know, raising cattle back east is way different, but anyway, um still raising cattle, yeah.
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:11.040
It is different.
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:13.920
A lot of cattlemen, not a lot of cowboys, I think is the difference, you know.
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:22.079
Like, but uh and then I messed around, started getting on a few bulls, and figured out, you know, found a Dell Brisbee video or two.
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:35.120
And I don't know what it was, but after the after I realized I I didn't want to go to law school and didn't really know the only thing I knew I wanted to do is work for Del Brisbee or move out west.
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:39.759
So like I just kind of had this, it's a weird thing because I've never really experienced anything like it.
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.560
I I just like my my heart, like it was a godly thing.
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:44.879
Like I just knew that I was gonna go work for Del Brisbee.
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:45.839
I could feel it.
00:05:46.079 --> 00:06:13.519
And I set a reminder on my phone, uh, because he, you know, he takes applications in, but I set a reminder on my phone for the first of every month, and I sent a video in beginning every month for probably a year and a half, and I was like, they're either gonna have to block me or like tell me no, you know, and like eventually, uh about a year in, uh, I had some talk back and forth, and you know, the timing just wasn't right, and they had other people coming in, but I just had no doubt in my mind it was gonna eventually work.
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:26.240
And uh right before I actually my parents knew I was trying to get out there, but they also knew like to them it was just so far-fetched, which it should have been, because like so many people apply.
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:28.800
Like, I don't know why I was just so certain it was gonna work.
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:32.079
Do you know have an idea, like ballpark number of how many people apply?
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:43.120
I know that there's I know at the time that I applied out there that there was, and this was four years ago, uh, there was 14,000 people that got the text whenever a job opened.
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:45.279
So there's uh no telling how many now.
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:50.480
I mean, that doesn't mean all those 14,000 send videos in, but it's 14,000 people interested, you know.
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:58.800
And uh my parents one day, because I quit working at the law office, and I was just kind of like working.
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:12.000
I had a cousin that has a construction company, and I was working for him and just making money and kind of just I I wasn't, you know, I was just sedentary, I guess, you know, because I was just hell bent that this Dell Brisbee thing was gonna work.
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:18.480
And my parents were like, look, we're hopeful for you, but you need a backup plan and you need to get it rolling.
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:26.879
And uh so I was like, well, I'll just go find a cowboying gig somewhere and like I'll get out to Texas or somewhere out west and figure it out.
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:49.759
And I actually threw like uh some family friends, they actually had a connection to this guy, uh his name's Austin Whitner out of San Angelo, Texas, and uh he was managing a ranch out there, and uh I went, I got a hold of him, and they were I think he had like I want to say 20 or 30,000 acres.
00:07:49.839 --> 00:08:03.040
He was over there, and he kind of ran it himself and he would bring dayworkers in and everything when they were whenever they would work their cows, but uh they were about to they were thinking about acquiring another piece so they wouldn't need another full-time guy.
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:06.800
So uh he's like, Yeah, come on out, like we'll give you a trial run.
00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:09.759
And uh yeah, I loaded the truck up and went.
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:16.319
Stayed out there with him, and uh I was out there with him for about a month and uh just on the ranch.
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:28.560
And San Angelo is not like necessarily a real big town anyway, but we were on the the outskirts of it, and that was a first for me because uh yeah, a little different than uh the water getting state of Kentucky.
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.040
We didn't go to town, like I didn't leave that place.
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:37.600
I we left I think twice, and I had no cell service anywhere on that ranch.
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:46.080
I would have Wi-Fi at night, but it was just nice, like it was, you know, like I wasn't on my phone ever because it was useless.
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:51.840
It was just like I didn't even bring it in my pocket most of the time because it was just a useless brick in my pocket most of the time, you know.
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.080
But I worked out there with him for three weeks and and really liked it.
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:58.240
Like I would have I would have stayed there.
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:17.519
And uh three weeks in um Dale finally hit me back, and I was that was all I ever wanted was to work for Dell Brisby, but I'd had this gig with Austin that I was really enjoying, and uh I I'd really got close with him because it was just me and him out there, you know.
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:23.840
And so I I I I went to him about it and he knew who Dale was and he's like, hey man, go do that while you can.
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:25.840
He's like, jobs like this, we'll be around.
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:27.120
He's like, go do that.
00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:28.080
So that's cool.
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.519
He he encouraged me to go do it.
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:38.480
So yeah, I'd from there I went back home, packed, packed my truck down again, and then drove right back to Texas, and I've been been here since.
00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:39.519
So hadn't left.
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.600
Does your line is your uh your ID card?
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:44.320
Your what are you doing?
00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:45.200
I did, I finally got it.
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:46.080
Did you finally switch it?
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:47.120
I finally got it.
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:54.559
Uh I'll tell you why I got it is man, I got I'd been pulled over maybe three times my whole life before I moved out of here.
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:59.759
They will pull you over in Texas for having an out-of-state plate like quicker than anywhere.
00:09:59.919 --> 00:10:07.120
And then there I just noticed a switch in the tone whenever I could show them a Texas ID and not a Kentucky ID.
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:12.159
You know, like it's not like I was I was only ever speeding, but a little bit.
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:13.440
But a little bit.
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:18.000
Uh yeah, the moment I got that ID switched over, I it was usually just warnings.
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:19.039
Became a local.
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:19.519
Yeah.
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.799
They they were much more, you know, have a good day, sir.
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:23.759
That kind of thing.
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.919
Well, I'm just gonna give you a warning today.
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:26.559
Yeah.
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:28.639
So well, I didn't know that.
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:31.360
I didn't know you had done ranching or like been to Texas before.
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:33.200
Yeah, I mean, it was brief.
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.600
Um, it was kind of a crash course, too.
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:43.919
He uh he took in a lot of outside horses, so I think he had like, I don't know, 10 or a dozen at the time.
00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:49.279
And I've man, I showed walking horses a little bit growing up.
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:51.519
My papa's still in the walking horse biz.
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.440
I kind of got to high school and started playing sports and lost interest that.
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:57.840
So I didn't not have a lot of time horseback.
00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:02.320
And you go work for a guy that trains horses, well, like that was like all I did.
00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:03.200
You better learn.
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:09.679
Yeah, like we would be horseback from the time the sun came up until until it got too hot to be on them, you know.
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:21.759
So like, but you know, I felt like I learned I learned so much in the I learned, you know, what might have taken me months somewhere else, like in three weeks, because I just was I had my leg over one every day.
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:22.799
I was just I was there.
00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:23.759
And you had to.
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:30.720
And he was picky too, because these were his horses that he was so if I was doing anything wrong, he was pretty quick to to correct me.
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:32.480
So I was real thankful for that.
00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:33.279
It was really cool.
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:33.840
Nice.
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.600
So man, that's neat.
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:38.879
Even that you got the connection, because yeah, yeah.
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:44.399
Like it does take that, it does take that connection, it seems like to get those gigs.
00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:44.960
For sure.
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:50.799
Like that that that in itself was God sent too, and and man, like Austin was super good to me.
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:52.639
Like, I still we still text a little bit.
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:56.159
I run into him at the the heritage deal in Abilene every year.
00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:57.679
So yeah, he's always there.
00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:00.320
So you know I've never been to that.
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:01.519
I don't believe you.
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:02.799
Never been to the heritage.
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:03.200
Really?
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:04.159
Never have.
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:05.519
In your life or just.
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:10.720
Never been in my life.
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:11.440
Why not?
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.200
I I saw Mikey there this year.
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:15.039
I know, he left without me.
00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:19.759
Left without no, it was uh I it's always been a deal.
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:24.159
Like during school, it was I was gone.
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:28.720
It was always like the same weekend as a camp that like a basketball camp that I was going to.
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:30.159
Yeah, never been.
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:38.720
I and then once I came back home to the ranch, it was all the cowboys were like, Let me, I will trade you two weekends for me.
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:39.919
Yeah, they all wanted to go.
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.639
So it was like a okay, like it's fine with me.
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:47.279
So I would trade and drive the feed truck, and last year I was like, all right, I need to go.
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:49.200
And then I don't remember what happened.
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:50.639
Why why I couldn't go.
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:52.720
You were gone somewhere because I I asked.
00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:53.919
I was yeah, yeah.
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.600
You weren't in the state, I don't believe.
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:57.679
I don't remember why I was gone.
00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:58.399
Anyway, I need to go.
00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:00.960
But Wichita Falls is this weekend.
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:02.320
So I'm just so busy.
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.200
You haven't been to that one?
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:06.240
The ranch rodeo.
00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:11.120
I might have went last year or the year before last.
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:11.759
I can't remember.
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:16.639
Yeah, I don't I go to a ranch rodeo every now and then, but more of a rodeo guy.
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:17.679
Rodeo rodeos.
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:21.200
Usually but you rode bulls too before getting to Dale's U Sand.
00:13:21.440 --> 00:13:31.840
I'd uh I met a kid um that that rode bulls uh who's from like Michigan or Ohio, Ohio, and he'd moved to Kentucky.
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:33.519
And man, it's such a weird thing.
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:39.840
Like in Kentucky, uh walking horses are still big, and then you have your thoroughbreds like in the Lexton area.
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:45.600
But like they rodeos, you're not gonna find a full, I don't even think they have a pro rodeo.
00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:54.480
So there's some IPRAs that come through there kind of in the summer, and then you'll have bull rods in the summer, but like you don't have full.
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:55.919
Why do you think that is?
00:13:56.080 --> 00:13:56.879
I have no idea.
00:13:57.039 --> 00:14:01.919
It's but like the moment you get into like Ohio, there's bull rodents everywhere.
00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:07.679
Tennessee, there's rodeos and bull runs everywhere, West Virginia's got them, but it just like completely skips over Kentucky.
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.679
So when I met this kid, his name is Max O'Hara.
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:19.200
Uh he rode bulls pretty alright and gave me like the rundown and everything, and he had some extra gear I could borrow.
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:24.960
And uh the first time I went, it was like any other college-age kid that does it for the first time.
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:26.320
I was is like a bucket list thing.
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:27.679
Like you just gotta do it.
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:31.120
I went to the like the PBR velocity in Lexington and I was like, I bet I could do that.
00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:38.879
And then, you know, met Max and went with him and uh went to a place in Fox Hollow, and they got like a a novice class there.
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:46.320
So I got on there and I was like, the first time I did it, I was like, dude, this is this is the tits, man.
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:47.039
Like it's awesome.
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:57.120
So I I bought like all my gear, and my mom would have had a heart attack if she knew, so I didn't I didn't even tell my parents I was doing it, and I was still in school, but everyone.
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:09.039
Yeah, it was I was maybe a sophomore junior in college, and like any weekend I could, I was like driving to Ohio, West Virginia, Tennessee, and just going to bull riddings.
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:16.720
And uh you can't really find practice pins there either, so like it's not a good way to learn because you're just like showing up and getting on God knows what.
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:24.480
And uh, but like thankfully I didn't get hurt in the process and and managed to get on some like good ones to learn on.
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:38.080
But by the time I got hired by Dale, I'd maybe been on like 40, like so not a lot, but I feel like that's like I mean it's it's enough to to figure out how much you got left to learn, you know.
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:58.159
Like that was yeah, but uh I mean, even by the time I moved out to Texas, I was still so new to rodeo, like I just didn't realize how like in how how much work goes in to to being a high-level bull rider, really.
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:12.080
I think if you'd have sat me down and really told me at 23, you're like, hey, you're gonna be doing this, you're gonna be some, you're gonna be doing something to get better at this every day for the next three or four years, and even then, like you're gonna have miles left to go.
00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:14.159
I I don't think I would have done it.
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.279
I I was just young and optimistic, and I was like, I'll figure it out.
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:18.639
Give me six months, you know.
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.720
Like I thought I'd the Dell Brisbee hire, it's like bang, I'm there, you know.
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:25.759
Like I just thought I'd I'd figure it out.
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:40.799
And uh, but yeah, in the process of it, like I have kind of fallen in love with with the game of it, and I enjoy it, and you know, like I get by some good ones every now and then, but to be great, you gotta get by the good ones every time, or most of the time, you know.
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:52.000
Like it's and it is crazy just how long it takes to get good at that and how ignorant most people are to how hard that is, you know.
00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:53.039
I can see that.
00:16:53.279 --> 00:17:02.000
Like any 20-something year old guy that's in halfway good shape watches that on TV, and whether they admit it or not, they're like, I can do that.
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:03.279
They all think that.
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:05.279
Everybody thinks that I thought that.
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:11.200
But buddy, you will get humbled so quick, so often in in that game.
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:11.839
It's tough.
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:13.359
Are you still riding now?
00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:14.640
Yeah, yeah.
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:16.000
Yeah, still doing it.
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:20.640
I remember well the last time I went, I got to see you ride, but I hadn't been over there in a minute.
00:17:20.880 --> 00:17:21.200
Yeah.
00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:24.079
I've seen the videos.
00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:24.960
You're still yeah, I know.
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:25.920
I should I should know that.
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:26.400
Yeah.
00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:29.839
A lot of a lot of lowlights on the internet if you go looking.
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:34.000
If you the Dude Perfect one was a real, real stinger, man.
00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:41.359
I got wrecked out in a dude perfect video, and I had people coming out of the woodwork asking me if I was alright on that one.
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:43.200
It was it was rough.
00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:47.519
Like uh like afterwards they were coming, they were calling you.
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.359
We did that collaboration with Dude Perfect, which is awesome, by the way.
00:17:51.519 --> 00:18:04.720
It was it was super cool, and uh I was actually I got sidelined for a little bit because I had I broke my pelvis and had uh I like tore my abdomen and groin muscle kind of off the bone.
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:11.119
And uh I didn't know I didn't know I was hurt for a while, so I kept getting on and it kept getting worse.
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:17.440
So like really when it was all said and done, like you kind of got to scratch about a year from like it took about a year from me.
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:26.559
So when Dude Perfect was coming back, I was still like rehabbing and I'd only been on like maybe three or four head, like coming back from surgery, you know.
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:31.119
And uh, but you know, like Dude Perfect's there, I was gonna get on.
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:34.799
Like Ty, the main guy for Dude Perfect, was getting on some.
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:40.480
So uh at the time we've got a bull there that we actually named Ty Monster.
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:46.240
He was he's got some age to him now and he's just got nice, but at the time he was probably about the juiciest one in the pen that we had.
00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:48.799
And but he was like the one I like getting on to practice, you know.
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.119
And I got on him way before I should have.
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:59.839
And uh yeah, he I kind of hung to him a little bit and got drug underneath of him, and he stomped me pretty good.
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:15.680
And it looked like he kind of his foot when it came down like grazed the side of my face, and I had like a little cut from it, but it looked like he stepped right on my head, and so it scared the crap out of everyone there, but like like Cody Johnson was there too.
00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:40.480
Like it was like the worst time to get rapped out, and uh, so yeah, I just got mucked out, and um that video comes out like three weeks later, you know, and hell one of my college professors sent me a a message on Facebook because they couldn't get they said, Hey, I was watching Dude Perfect with my kids, and I'm pretty sure I just saw, like, are you okay?
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:42.000
You know, like, are you good?
00:19:42.240 --> 00:20:04.880
But I had so many people ask about that, and uh yeah, I mean that's that's another uh like humbling thing about you know, you kind of it's you're kind of a vulnerable thing learning something so hard in front of all these eyes just with Dale Brisbee, but then like you collaborate with Dude Perfect who has like 70 million subscribers, where it's like, well, now everyone you know has has seen the lowlights of it, you know.
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:09.279
And but uh but yeah, it was it was all good.
00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:12.079
Yeah, what a time to what yeah, I know.
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:21.279
What a time for that time you and you're just I remember in the moments who you're like, all right, dude, I'm gonna give this one the boots, it's gonna go on a dude perfect video, it's gonna be immortalized forever.
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:35.440
And then just I remember like just being stuck like this, and I could already see, like I knew what was coming, you know, like it was but yeah, you you gotta you gotta be able to roll with heartbreaks like that in in that sport, you know.
00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:40.000
It's gonna you're gonna get wrecked out, it's gonna be on TV if that's what you know if you do it long enough.
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:43.440
So So you're you're still riding.
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:47.519
Um what else you what what is your job for Dale?
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:58.960
Um when I first came on, uh, you know, he's got a million things going on, so you're kind of just like a freelance, like whatever's gonna be done, you just go do.
00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:04.079
So there's orders that gotta go out, there's stuff that has to be done at the ranch, you know.
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:23.519
So my first year, you you're kind of just hot shot and doing whatever is is called to do, but I kind of just noticed um when I when I started to realize that this was a place I wanted to be for a long time, uh you know, the main train that keeps this thing going is the media side.
00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:33.440
And I just I kind of I wouldn't say I had a passion for it, but I I kind of I figured that'd be something I could enjoy, you know, like I and I thought I could figure it out.
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:50.240
So about a year in, um, yeah, I got a camera stuck in my hand and handed a computer and YouTube's my way to figuring out how to edit videos and stuff, and and that's kind of the main the main thing now is you know, we do so much filming, podcasts, and blogs and stuff.
00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:51.119
Yeah, you do.
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:55.839
I spent a lot of days punching keys, but uh how many editors now?
00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:57.119
Oh goodness.
00:21:57.440 --> 00:21:58.480
It's like eight or something.
00:21:58.720 --> 00:21:59.519
Two, three.
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:03.920
Yeah, like I think six or seven right now, but we're looking.
00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:05.920
So Yeah.
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:16.480
I mean, the not so glorious side is like, yeah, you're like you're you're doing work, you're sitting at a computer, but yeah, we get to we get to go on some fun field trips every now and then.
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.079
Yeah, and I want to talk about that too.
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:18.559
Trade off.
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:25.920
But the the editing kind of the behind the scenes stuff that is kind of the less glamorous sign.
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:26.720
It's a job.
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:31.440
Like I it's funny, I have like my friends text me and they just think I do nothing all day.
00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:33.440
They're like, you yeah, you just sit out there and do it.
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:35.759
I'm like, dude, it's there's work.
00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:36.720
It it is work.
00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:39.519
You know, there are there are days where it is just kind of grueling.
00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:46.640
I mean, I don't want to, I'm still extremely blessed and I love what I do, but uh yeah, like it's there are days it's a job, just like anything else.
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:52.799
There are people probably see you like your Instagram and they're like, Well, this guy just shows up and turns the camera on, that's it.
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:53.920
Well, like, no, you're gonna be.
00:22:58.319 --> 00:22:59.200
Yeah, do anything.
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:01.920
Yeah, but it's it's work like anything else.
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:05.279
But yeah, there's some perks to it, there's some fun to it as well, you know.
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.519
So yeah, I think that's any part of the job.
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.920
I I could still smell the uh lagoon water on my hands right now.
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:14.000
I was working on a pivot today.
00:23:14.079 --> 00:23:14.799
Oh yeah.
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.960
And uh I never get any volunteers to help with that part.
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:21.440
Yeah, you don't get volunteers for that kind of work, I don't think.
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:22.880
No, you gotta pick them.
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:32.160
Yeah, I do I had have some friends that have uh that work on pivots, and they're like, man, I it does suck to work on pivots, but it's cool to have that like nice, clean, well watered.
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:32.559
Sure.
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:36.240
And I'm like, well, ours is like what comes off of our feed yard.
00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:39.759
So it is not nice or clean.
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:41.920
One of the worst things I had to do.
00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:46.960
I when I was in college, I worked at uh I worked at EKU's farm facility over there.
00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:48.799
And you know, it was a college farm.
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:50.559
So they had there's a million different things going on.
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:55.039
They had pigs, they had sheep, they had beef, they had a dairy.
00:23:55.440 --> 00:24:12.480
One of the worst things I ever had to do in my life was uh the pig facility, the swan facility, had those slap floors, you know, they'd poop down those slap floors that go to a tank, and uh when they'd empty that tank out, they'd use it to fertilize crop fields over there.
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:14.960
So they just had this like aluminum pipe.
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:17.519
And the first time Is it wet fertilizer?
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:19.519
I mean, considered wet fertilizer, like a slurry.
00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:21.359
Yeah, it it came out of a sprayer.
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:28.000
So yeah, it was um the first time you lay the pipe, like you lay the pipe one way, and that that part's not bad.
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:32.559
Like, I mean, it's a long process, but like they'd empty half the tank into one field on one side of the farm.
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:37.599
Well, then the other half of the tank had to go to a field on the other side of the farm.
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:38.319
Yeah.
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:42.640
So we had you gotta break that pipe loose and send it the other way.
00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:50.319
Well, like you'd have to stand, you'd have to straddle those, like where they connect and break them loose because air, but air pockets would build up.
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:55.359
And so you'd break one loose and it would just spray pig crap like straight up on you.
00:24:55.599 --> 00:24:56.000
Dude.
00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:05.759
And I like the smell of cow crab never bothered me, horse never bothered me, but like pigs, it sits on you like a chemical, and you can't you can't shower it off.
00:25:05.839 --> 00:25:11.759
And I was living in a dorm, so like I'd come in and it probably I'd probably smell sour to like anyone that's living with.
00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:18.000
Luckily, I lived with a like some random guy that he had some sinus deal and he couldn't smell he couldn't smell.
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:19.279
So like it never bothered me.
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:21.519
Yeah, he had he had pre-COVID.
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:22.319
Pre-COVID.
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:28.319
Just could not smell me, which that was God sent too, because if I had somebody with a nose, they would they would have hated living with me.
00:25:28.480 --> 00:25:30.319
But yeah, that's wild.

And you saw that, you shared it.
00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:28.480
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:30.640
And I got some questions from uh from the audience.
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:31.599
Oh boy.
00:26:32.799 --> 00:26:38.240
This one is from um Check Texas Signal.
00:26:38.559 --> 00:26:39.519
Good, I don't know him.
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:40.720
This is good.
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:45.440
What did your progression look like in bull riding from high school to today?
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:48.400
Okay, so high school, I wasn't doing it at all.
00:26:49.039 --> 00:27:01.119
So uh, but man, it's uh it's one of those things you uh you'll do it every day and not see progress, and then you'll watch a video of yourself from a year ago and you'll you'll see it.
00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:07.839
But like, yeah, whenever I first got to Dale's, I couldn't ride trunk, that little we call him the bucket list boy.
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:10.000
You know, we've we've stuck Mexican OT on him.
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:14.319
We've anyone that shows up that wants to get on, you know, like and I couldn't stay on him.
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:19.920
And I mean, granted, he like he didn't stop back then, he might have bucked a little harder, but he was nothing.
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:25.920
And uh, yeah, now you know, like every now and then I cling to I cling to a decent one.
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:37.519
It's just it's just it's baby steps, and you'll feel like you're not getting better, you'll feel like you're not getting better for months, and then you know, you'll look back, watch an old video yourself and be like, golly, I should have quit.
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:39.839
You know, because it was ugly.
00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:41.519
I do that with some videos.
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:42.000
Yeah.
00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:44.799
Like of some of the videos I made, and I was like, oh, that was a good one.
00:27:44.880 --> 00:27:46.319
Yeah, editing's the same way.
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:50.319
When I go back and watch stuff that I first edited, when I I was like, golly, who watched?
00:27:50.720 --> 00:27:52.079
Who watched that?
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:52.880
You know?
00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:56.799
Oh, um, this one is from Ryan Meadows.
00:27:57.039 --> 00:27:57.519
Oh boy.
00:27:57.759 --> 00:27:59.279
I'm gonna let you read it.
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:01.920
Do I have to answer?
00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:02.559
No.
00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:07.599
Why does he like such masculine women?
00:28:07.759 --> 00:28:08.400
All right.
00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:15.920
There was one gal I called attractive that was kind of a fit chick.
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:17.759
I wouldn't say masculine.
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:19.039
She was just in shape.
00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:21.119
She looked like she could handle herself, you know.
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.599
Like it was one time.
00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:27.359
It's not like that's my own specific flavor, you know.
00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:30.880
It's not what I look for in a lady.
00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:33.279
But this one, you couldn't ignore it, you know.
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:34.400
There you go.
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:39.680
Um this one's from uh guy named Carson Sanders.
00:28:39.839 --> 00:28:40.640
If you've ever heard of it.
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:49.359
What happened the time that aliens woke you up in your house, in your new house?
00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:55.599
We think it was a gas leak, but uh I moved into like one of the Dell's like rentals.
00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:56.880
Recently or no?
00:28:57.039 --> 00:28:58.000
It's been fairly recently.
00:28:58.079 --> 00:29:07.279
It's like a couple months ago, and gosh, I'm gonna sound crazy if I tell this story, but uh I woke up, like, first off, it never felt like I went to sleep.
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:12.000
Like it felt like I was like, it's hard to explain, but like an out-of-body almost.
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:12.319
Okay.
00:29:12.480 --> 00:29:13.839
And I heard the house?
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:14.640
In the house.
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:19.279
And I heard like a humming, like a like a machine type hum.
00:29:19.599 --> 00:29:22.480
That sounded like it was coming from outside.
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:29.039
And yeah, like I woke up, I finally like got out of bed and like checked the house and couldn't find anything.
00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:34.400
And anyway, we put gas detectors in my gas, whatever those things, the sensors in my house after that.
00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:35.599
But we think it was.
00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:38.720
I'm not saying I had some, but it was weird.
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:39.680
It was weird when it happened.
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:41.680
Weird enough to be a little worried about it.
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:43.200
You can't tell your friends anything.
00:29:43.680 --> 00:29:44.480
No, you can't, dude.
00:29:44.640 --> 00:29:46.480
No, it'll end up on a podcast.
00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:53.920
I don't know what this this might be a fun one.
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:54.559
I don't know.
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:56.000
I'll let you read that one.
00:29:56.240 --> 00:29:58.319
The one beside Carson's.
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:04.480
The one beside Carson.
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:04.799
Okay.
00:30:05.119 --> 00:30:07.759
Oh, yeah, that's that's my cousin, actually.
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:08.720
Oh.
00:30:09.279 --> 00:30:13.200
I don't that was just something we said in high school, like put granny to bed.
00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:18.000
Like if you got a dip or something, like whatever, you just find a silly way to Hey, I gotta go.
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:18.880
I gotta put Granny to bed.
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.480
I mean, it was it was a stupid thing we said when we were in high school.
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:24.640
I don't think I don't think there is a any anyway.
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:27.440
The question was ask him if he has ever put Granny to bed.
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:28.079
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:29.359
It's like, ah, sorry, I gotta go.
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:30.400
I gotta go put Granny to bed.
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:31.839
I did Dad said that before.
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:34.319
I'm gonna have to use that one now.
00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:40.720
Um let's see, what does this say?
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:46.720
Oh, oh, okay.
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:48.960
This is from Aaron Williamson.
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:53.440
When you talk to people, do you think that they have an idea that you are a believer?
00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:58.400
Little emotional swap there.
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:05.119
Yeah, uh I don't know, that's one thing I've always admired in people that are able to do it.
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:08.319
Uh, like to Carson Scratch, I think he he does it sometimes.
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:14.400
Is like, I don't know, sometimes like the word kind of spills out of him a little bit easier than it probably does myself.
00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:23.440
Uh but I'm not maybe not in the first five minutes of knowing me, you know, but I think you spend enough time around me, you probably figure it out.
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:26.079
Maybe that's a good answer.
00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:27.200
Yeah.
00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:28.799
That's a good one.
00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:32.319
Well, there was that's all of them from Instagram anyway.

00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:51.359
Uh which leads me to um my next, one of my favorite segments of the of the podcast.
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:53.279
It's called uh the finolio boot.
00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:54.079
Come on.
00:31:54.799 --> 00:31:56.000
You know finolio boots.
00:31:56.240 --> 00:31:56.400

00:31:56.559 --> 00:31:57.680
I wear finolio boots.
00:31:57.759 --> 00:31:58.720

00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:01.119
Turns out I've got a discount code over there.
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:02.799
Discount code, guess what it is?
00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:04.559
Tucker Brown.
00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:04.960
Wow.

Check them out.
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:14.559
Um The Fanolio boot.
00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:18.880
What would you give the finolio boot in bull riding to kick it out?
00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:22.319
Whether it's in the culture, whether it's in the process of practicing.
00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:24.160
Kick it out like a bad thing?
00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:26.720
Yeah, Kate, what would you kick out?
00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:27.519
Man.
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:53.680
Uh I don't want to sound there's just like a lot of uh just like I don't know, some rough characters in it that probably don't take it serious that aren't uh aren't doing anything to get better, but will keep entering just to say, you know, that they're riding that they're a bull rider, you know.
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:54.319
And yeah.
00:32:54.799 --> 00:33:03.359
I think uh sometimes you end up entered up at a place with a whole lot of them, and it probably just that's probably why ruffies get a bad name every now and then.
00:33:03.599 --> 00:33:07.839
But uh maybe maybe that's what I'd give the boot to.
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:08.799
Give the boot.
00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:15.680
But yeah, I don't wanna I don't I'm not look most of the most of the people that I go with and are around they're good dudes.
00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:19.039
But yeah, every every now and then there's a few characters.
00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:20.160
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:21.519
A few characters.
00:33:21.680 --> 00:33:22.559
Well, that's good.
00:33:22.720 --> 00:33:23.200
That's good.
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:25.039
Well give you give it the finole boot.
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:26.319

Yeah.
00:33:26.720 --> 00:33:28.799
With after using code Tucker Brown.
00:33:29.039 --> 00:33:29.279

Of course.

Don't want to forget it.
00:33:34.480 --> 00:33:39.119
But on uh, which leads me to my next favorite segment.
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:40.720
You got a lot of favorites.
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:42.720
Dude, it is it is my favorite segment.
00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:45.759
And uh we're gonna we're gonna compare something side by side.
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:47.920
This has to do with with with rodeo.
00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:48.720
You bet.
00:33:48.880 --> 00:33:52.160
And um this is brought to you by Can Am Side by Sides.
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:52.480
All right.
00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:55.039
And we're gonna look side by side, okay?
00:33:55.279 --> 00:33:56.480
We're gonna compare these two.
00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:56.720
Okay.
00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:00.240
I compare Can Am to a lot of other uh side by sides.
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:02.079
Can Am always wins for sure?
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:05.839
And so we're gonna look at rodeo cowboys and ranching cowboys.
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:08.000
How would you compare them side by side?
00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:09.760
Because you kind of get a look into both of them.
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:10.800
Yeah.
00:34:11.119 --> 00:34:15.840
Um Rodeo Cowboys versus Ranching Cowboys.
00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:18.320
Uh I don't know.
00:34:18.400 --> 00:34:25.519
Like the people that I would just really consider like ranching cowboys, it's a lot eas harder to fake that, I think.
00:34:26.000 --> 00:34:27.039
Fake the ranching cowboy.
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:27.760
Yeah, yeah.
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:34.079
Like I don't uh you got a lot of people that just kind of play dress up, I think, with the rodeo thing, like I mentioned earlier.
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:34.639
Sure.
00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:40.239
And it's easy to do, like, you know, like if you hell anyone can enter, you know, like they don't really vet you.
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:44.960
If you're willing to go to the stockyard, go to Billy Bob's, you don't even have to get a card.
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:56.239
You can enter open bull rodents, like whatever, you can go and do it, and you can call yourself a rodeo cowboy, you know, and to a lot of people that don't know, you would be to them.
00:34:56.480 --> 00:34:58.000
And uh and that's okay.
00:34:58.079 --> 00:35:14.159
Like, I don't, but uh I just have like an immense amount of respect for like a true like ranching cowboy because I just you know I never really witnessed like top level horsemanship before I came out here.
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:19.840
Just a guy that's willing to spend his days, you know, like trotting in circles on one and really figure a horse out.
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:24.320
Like that's you can't do that in a week, you know, you can't pretend to do that.
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:33.760
Like it's it just takes a lot of work and like guys that are real good with a rope, like I just I have a a lot of respect for for those guys.
00:35:33.840 --> 00:35:39.119
And so like, yeah, that's what I'd say the biggest difference is like you can you can fake being a rodeo cowboy all day.
00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:45.199
I mean no one's gonna look you up on the PRCA website if you just tell them your rodeo or whatever.
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:51.840
But like I think in Texas, if you just went around telling people you were a ranching cowboy, you'd get sniffed out pretty quick.
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:57.519
And it I don't know, there'd probably be consequences, I'd imagine, in some in some rooms, you know.
00:35:59.360 --> 00:36:03.119
Consequences, so yeah, that that'd be the biggest difference, I think.
00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:06.559
Have uh have you ever been to Cheyenne Frontier Days?
00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:07.840
I have not, no.
00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:09.440
I'm going this year for the first time.
00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:10.079
Are you really?
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:12.480
I've never been to Abilene, but I'm going to Cheyenne.
00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:12.960
Yeah.
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:14.239
Of course.
00:36:14.480 --> 00:36:15.039
Of course.
00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:16.880
But I'm pretty excited.
00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:17.920
Yeah to be able to.
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:18.480
Yeah, yeah.
00:36:18.639 --> 00:36:20.239
Have you have you been to Canada?
00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:20.719
No.
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:21.519
Calgary.
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:25.199
I'd never left the country until like three or four months ago I had to go to Canada.
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:26.159
And you went to Canada?
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:27.199
Yeah, I went to Red Deer.
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:32.239
No, uh the uh Canada Horse Expo in Red Deer.
00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:34.079
I went up there for that with total feeds.
00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:37.840
But that was the first time I had like I had to get a passport.
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:41.519
Golly, that's a become a grown up stressful deal.
00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:42.320
Yeah, it is.
00:36:42.719 --> 00:36:47.039
But uh yeah, that was the first time I ever left the States was Canada here recently.
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:48.559
Where where where was that?
00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:49.599
Red Deer.
00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:51.920
We flew into Calgary.
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:55.360
Calgary also, by the way, is like a big city.
00:36:55.679 --> 00:36:58.960
Like the rodeo arena is just kind of like on the side of the highway.
00:36:59.039 --> 00:37:02.639
Like it they make it look on TV like it's you think it's just out.
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:02.960
Right.
00:37:03.039 --> 00:37:03.360
I think it's right.
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:07.840
But it just looks like a yeah, like you think it's in a field somewhere, maybe it's you see it from the highway.
00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:14.880
And then but Calgary is a big old place, and and then we drove up to Red Deer, and it's kind of more rural out there, I guess.
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:16.480
But it kind of was cool.
00:37:16.559 --> 00:37:18.000
I like Canadian folks, they're nice people.
00:37:18.239 --> 00:37:18.800
Sorry.
00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:20.239
Sorry, yeah.
00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:22.400
Yeah, yeah, they're they're funny.
00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:27.679
Well, uh let's go there on some of those cool trips that you've gotten to do with your job.
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:31.280
Uh like just name a you've got I know you've gotten to go a lot of places.
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:31.679
Yeah.
00:37:32.079 --> 00:37:35.519
Throw out a shotgun of uh some of those places you've gotten to go.
00:37:36.320 --> 00:37:43.519
The first one that I've I mean I've said it on our podcast a million times, but the it it might be like the nothing could talk.
00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:48.000
I can't imagine one that tops it was uh going to uh to meet Rogan.
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:49.360
Oh, it's falling out the bottom there.
00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:50.320
Oh shoot.
00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:53.360
Yeah, just push this back in there.
00:37:54.559 --> 00:37:56.719
Dude, that that would have hurt to pinch your finger on that.
00:37:57.519 --> 00:37:59.599
Sorry, what'd you say you said sorry, sorry?
00:37:59.920 --> 00:38:00.880
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
00:38:01.119 --> 00:38:05.679
When uh when Dale got to do Rogan, um I figured you'd say that.
00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:13.199
Yeah, I man, I get my Spotify wrapped every year at the end of the year, and I'm in the top like 99.7% of Rogan listeners, dude.
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:15.519
I haven't missed an episode since I was in high school.
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:16.639
Oh my goodness.
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:22.880
The only ones I don't watch, uh the fight companions, I'll skip every now and then, but I have not missed an episode in probably 10 years.
00:38:23.119 --> 00:38:25.599
When do you like when is your listening time?
00:38:25.840 --> 00:38:27.360
Uh working out and driving.
00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:32.960
And I do so much driving these days, so much working out too, you know.
00:38:33.280 --> 00:38:33.920
So rip.
00:38:34.639 --> 00:38:40.400
So between the two of those, you can six hours a week, you can you can listen to some podcasts.
00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:43.119
I think he does two a week, so they're about both about three hours.
00:38:43.199 --> 00:38:46.000
But yeah, uh meeting Rogan was super cool.
00:38:46.159 --> 00:38:49.119
Like that was I don't know, it doesn't even feel real.
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:53.519
Like when you I'd listen to him talk for thousands of hours, probably, you know.
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:54.960
So I knew everything about him.
00:38:55.039 --> 00:39:04.800
Like it was that was like the first time I think I'd really been awestruck, and he was super nice, like gave me a big hug, took a picture, took a picture with me, talked to us outside for a little bit.
00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:08.159
Uh that one's always gonna be my number one.
00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:17.199
Uh the number two, which is like I don't think anything could take this one's spot because I'm a redneck from eastern Kentucky, but we went to Kid Rock's place.
00:39:17.440 --> 00:39:20.400
Oh, that didn't and got to go to the White House, like his White House.
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:20.800
Yeah.
00:39:21.199 --> 00:39:28.480
And just for like some little redneck from Owingsville, Kentucky, walking around in Kid Rock's house, like that is it was so funny.
00:39:28.559 --> 00:39:31.360
You know, like that one is is pretty ridiculous.
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:39.119
Uh and then uh honestly, the trip I just got back from uh noodling was Alabama.
00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:40.480
Yeah, you ever done that?
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:44.079
I have here in Texas, but not like y'all did.
00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:45.599
Did did you catch anything?
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:47.599
Like how what'd you be up on a you didn't?
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:47.760
No.
00:39:48.079 --> 00:39:49.679
You're just sticking your arm down empty halls.
00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:52.000
It is scary, isn't it?
00:39:53.280 --> 00:40:05.039
Yeah, uh and man, I'll be honest, that might be like I'd nod my head on anything before, like, and not be as scared as I was like that first.
00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:09.920
It is if I didn't have which Hannah Barron is a she's a badass.
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:13.920
I mean, she's five foot three and she's tough.
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:19.599
If I hadn't seen her wrestle like a 55-pounder out of a hole, I don't think I would have done it.
00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:21.519
It's like your your pride at that point.
00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:22.400
Yeah, like I have to.
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:24.079
She did, I have to.
00:40:24.639 --> 00:40:33.199
So the yeah, the first time, I mean, you're underwater just feeling around, waiting for something to bite your hand.
00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:38.079
Like it's it is it's explaining that is the they're like, no, you didn't do that.
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:39.440
So why would you do that?
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:42.880
She, while we were there, and she said she'd only done this one other time.
00:40:43.039 --> 00:40:44.880
This was like the most impressive thing I'd ever seen.
00:40:45.039 --> 00:40:46.000
There was a box.
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:49.920
Um, so when they make those dens, it's so they can lay eggs.
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:53.519
So So they make sell they make their own dens for those cats.
00:40:53.760 --> 00:40:54.800
Yeah, they put boxes out.
00:40:54.880 --> 00:40:55.119
Yeah.
00:40:55.280 --> 00:41:04.400
And uh, you know, which a box is just like a little three by four foot deal with a half circle cut out of it so they can den up and you have an idea where they're at.
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:08.159
But uh if you time it right, there'll be two fish in there.
00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:11.679
There'll be a male and a female, which is scary as hell to say out loud.
00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:15.679
I don't I I was ex I was so relieved whenever I'd reach in there and there was no fish in there.
00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:25.519
You know, like which the first like four boxes I went through, there was no fish, and there's just such like a sigh relief when you're like you feel the back wall of it, I think nothing's in here.
00:41:25.840 --> 00:41:40.559
But um she went uh went into one and pulled out probably a 35-pound cat, and her arms are so small, she can go through their mouth and like out through their gill and kind of like wear it like a purse, and that fish ain't going nowhere.
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:40.880
Yeah.
00:41:41.039 --> 00:41:50.960
Whereas like if you're a guy and you got bigger arms, you kind of have to, you gotta have one hand on their jaw and then run your offhand like through their backside of their gill.
00:41:51.119 --> 00:41:53.920
Yeah, there's a yeah, the through their gills.
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:58.800
So, but Hannah could just slide her arm in and and pull one out and it ain't going nowhere.
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:01.679
Because if you just have them by the mouth, they'll spin, they'll spin out of your hands.
00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:04.960
And they they can generate so much torque.
00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:08.000
Like you don't think anything like because you know how you move slow underwater?
00:42:08.079 --> 00:42:11.519
Yeah, you just expect you're like everything's weaker in the water.
00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:15.280
They're not like I mean it feels like a torque wrench whenever they go to spinning.
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:17.519
That's and it it breaks fingers, it breaks hands.
00:42:17.599 --> 00:42:24.400
Like they they were telling, they're like, Yeah, you better mean it when you get a hold of them, get both hands, because they'll they'll break your fingers, break your wrist if they go to spinning.
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:31.519
But so she reached in and pulls out one, and she's got one one fish on her arm, and she's like, wait a minute, I think there's another one.
00:42:31.920 --> 00:42:36.559
And she's like so small, like her arms can't get all the way to the back of those boxes.
00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:39.360
So she goes all the way in.
00:42:39.519 --> 00:42:57.760
We were in like four feet of water, maybe, and uh, she can go like all the way into her waist, like into those boxes, and she's like feeling with her feet, and she gets one when they when they bite her foot, she'll stick her foot out of the gill pocket, like the gills, and pull them to her.
00:42:57.920 --> 00:43:00.239
The whole time she's like still holding another fish.
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:12.719
So she now she's like waist deep in this box, like she's coming up for air and like going back down, and she pulled another fish up like to where her other hand could get it, went underwater, came out with both of them.
00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:14.320
Like it was the craziest thing I'd ever seen.
00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:15.519
She's a superhero.
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:16.639
And she did that.
00:43:16.800 --> 00:43:23.280
So right before she did that, uh it was I just missed, like, I I pulled a fish out and it got away from me.
00:43:23.599 --> 00:43:27.840
And it was the biggest the biggest one, I it was the biggest fish we saw all day.
00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:29.199
Like it ended up being the biggest.
00:43:29.280 --> 00:43:31.360
Yeah, it's probably like a 45-pound cat.
00:43:31.519 --> 00:43:33.519
I got it all the way to the top and it twisted out on me.
00:43:33.599 --> 00:43:35.119
It was the first one I tried to pull out.
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:45.199
Well, right after I lost that huge fish, she pulls out two, and it was just so demoralized to watch her manhandle two fish.
00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:50.480
So but it was kind of what I needed to see because like after I got I got the next one I kind of went to war with.
00:43:50.559 --> 00:43:53.760
I was like, I'm gonna beat the crap out of this thing before I let it go.
00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:58.480
So I got yeah, I got chewed up and beat around a little bit, but I was not.
00:44:01.119 --> 00:44:16.079
I would uh we had a glove on, but yeah, you just kind of you have that glove and you let them bite and then you can so they'll kind of chew your which I didn't get it too bad, but they'll chew your forearm up a little bit, but that's about dude.
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:17.519
What a weird way of fishing.
00:44:17.760 --> 00:44:23.039
It's it makes fishing with a pole, like you're like, how can you how can anyone do that if you've done this one before?
00:44:23.119 --> 00:44:26.639
I mean, it is it's scary, and like they'll shoot, they do that all year.
00:44:26.800 --> 00:44:28.880
Like she's she's one of her jobs.
00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:29.840
Yeah, they'll get up.
00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:30.559
Yeah, right.
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:31.679
Yeah, it's what she's known for.
00:44:31.840 --> 00:44:36.719
They'll get out there and in a day, you know, she might pull out 15 or 20 catfish.
00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:39.599
And it's exhausting.
00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:41.760
Those things are so strong.
00:44:41.920 --> 00:44:49.039
Like one that's 35 pounds, it's like wrestling a toddler on steroids, you know, like that's it, that's about how big they are.
00:44:49.119 --> 00:44:52.239
They're about the size, you know, but they're so strong.
00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:57.840
And yeah, I was gassed just with the two that I had to fight with, but yeah, it was it was super cool.
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:00.480
I can see why that was a top three.
00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:02.719
Yeah, that's just something I don't think I would have ever done.
00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:03.920
Experience-wise.
00:45:04.159 --> 00:45:04.400
Right.
00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:05.599
Yeah, yeah.
00:45:05.920 --> 00:45:08.480
No, had nothing to do with how Hannah looks either.
00:45:08.639 --> 00:45:09.679
No, nothing.
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:11.280
It was just about the fish.
00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:12.079
Of course.
00:45:12.239 --> 00:45:12.639
Of course.
00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:13.199
Professional.
00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:14.320
I was so professional the whole time.
00:45:14.559 --> 00:45:15.119
They're for business.
00:45:15.199 --> 00:45:16.800
She's a beautiful lady though.
00:45:17.280 --> 00:45:18.480
Really good at catfishing.
00:45:18.719 --> 00:45:22.559
Is it because she's very fit and she is very fit.
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:25.119
Goes back to the sponsor by First Form.
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:25.760
She is very fit.
00:45:26.000 --> 00:45:26.400
What is it?
00:45:26.480 --> 00:45:28.559
The who asked that?
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:29.280
Was it your cousin?
00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:29.679
Ryan.
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:30.400
Ryan asked it.
00:45:30.719 --> 00:45:31.840
Yeah, Ryan asked it.
00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:33.360
Whatever.
00:45:33.679 --> 00:45:34.559
Whatever.
00:45:35.199 --> 00:45:40.239
Uh what uh uh any other you name the top three, any other cool places.
00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:43.039
That's um those are all three like cool experiences.
00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:46.960
The one, I mean, the canning deal that we went with you was a lot of fun.
00:45:47.039 --> 00:45:50.079
That was I don't you probably talked about it on this podcast, I'm sure.
00:45:50.159 --> 00:45:52.880
But I mean a little bit, but it was really not too much.
00:45:53.199 --> 00:45:57.039
It was so fun to no offense, but we didn't think you had a shot in hell.
00:45:57.199 --> 00:45:57.760
Neither did I.
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:00.320
I didn't think I had a shot.
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:06.159
So I, you know, once we saw everyone who was racing, I was like, okay, Tucker probably got eliminated early, get to hang out with Tucker all day, you know.
00:46:06.239 --> 00:46:07.760
Like, I was looking forward to it.
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:13.519
And um yeah, and Bryce Harper was there, so he got Tucker's surprise.
00:46:13.920 --> 00:46:18.800
Cool, super cool, you know, and he got eliminated early, but I guess we're still obligated to be there all day.
00:46:18.960 --> 00:46:23.199
And I guess just probably found me and Donnie the least annoying of anyone there.
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:30.159
And he hung out with me and Donnie all day, and Tucker would stop by in between races and Dale when he had a break and we'd all sit and hang out.
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:34.800
But by the end of it, you know, you were pretty good buddies with Bryce because we were all cheering yawn.
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:43.440
Yeah, and so yeah, just to see you win that when like me, Donnie, and Bryce Harper are on like we're like falling over the rails.
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:48.159
Like, we're so excited, we're yelling, we're like, dude, Bryce is into it, like he was screaming for you.
00:46:48.320 --> 00:46:50.000
Like that was that was fun.
00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:51.039
That was a lot of fun.
00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:53.519
But yeah, Bryce Harper was a super cool guy.
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:54.239
Yeah, yeah.
00:46:54.320 --> 00:46:56.000
I was not expecting to be racing all day.
00:46:56.079 --> 00:46:57.920
I was trying to keep up with the Texas Tech game.
00:46:58.000 --> 00:47:02.159
I was like, I'll be out, I'll be able to watch this game or keep up with this game.
00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:10.079
Yeah, we were all so tickled for you because I was like, yeah, he probably just each round he wins is probably just like, you know, you know, guys, I'm still in it.
00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:10.880
Yeah, literally.
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:14.159
That was literally well then you get to the end and it was Battle Axe Jones, right?
00:47:14.239 --> 00:47:15.920
Yeah, he like races these things for a living.
00:47:16.079 --> 00:47:16.239
Yeah.
00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:17.920
I said that in the interview.
00:47:18.000 --> 00:47:18.800
They were like, What do you think?
00:47:18.880 --> 00:47:20.719
You're going into the last round, or what are you gonna do to beat him?
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:23.119
And I was like, literally, I was like, I'm racing.
00:47:23.360 --> 00:47:24.239
I even said his name wrong.
00:47:24.320 --> 00:47:26.639
I think I said uh uh Justin.
00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:29.119
I think I said I'm like, I'm racing Justin Jones.
00:47:29.199 --> 00:47:32.719
Like, why would I uh what am I doing here in the finals?
00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:36.159
And like just showing they thankfully they didn't put that in the video.
00:47:36.400 --> 00:47:37.840
Me calling him the wrong name.
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:39.760
But yeah, that was that was awesome.
00:47:39.920 --> 00:47:45.280
And then and then it was just funny, like now you guys have this like decked out can aim at the at the ranch.
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:46.719
Like that like that's funny.
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:54.800
Like it was it was good, yeah, perfect for and it was really fun because I got to heckle Dale a little bit after uh he needs it.
00:47:54.960 --> 00:47:57.679
The old he was like far farmer from Texas.
00:47:58.000 --> 00:47:58.800
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:47:58.960 --> 00:48:00.480
He gets a kick out of calling you a farmer.
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:02.079
He does love that, you know.
00:48:02.320 --> 00:48:03.360
He he loves it.
00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:16.320
Whenever uh who was it, Noah Young that came over there one day and to y'all's place, yeah, and he was like, I need to do a video about uh my favorite farmer, Tucker, and Dale's like, Yep, I like that judgment.
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:17.920
I'm gonna run that and run with it.
00:48:18.159 --> 00:48:18.800
Yeah, yeah.
00:48:18.880 --> 00:48:26.159
They I'll tell you, everyone where I live, they will beat a joke into the ground if if they if they like it.
00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:29.599
So yeah, the farmer brown thing's probably gonna be Yeah, it'll be around for a while.
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:31.199
It's uh it's affectionate.
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:33.679
Yeah, maybe not, but I'm gonna take it that way.
00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:34.480
Yeah.
00:48:35.599 --> 00:48:37.199
Uh okay.
00:48:38.239 --> 00:48:40.880
This moves this takes me to my next favorite.
00:48:41.119 --> 00:48:42.800
My uh favorite segment of the podcast.
00:48:43.119 --> 00:48:45.599
It's called the uh the bedrock tough question.
00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:52.239
Welcome to the bedrock tough question, brought to you by bedrock truck bed.
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:55.920
The toughest truck beds there are, and that's why we use them.
00:48:56.079 --> 00:48:58.639
Get one today and find out for yourself.
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:01.599
And now back to the bedrock tough question.
00:49:01.840 --> 00:49:04.639
All right, the bedrock tough question brought to you by bedrock truck beds.
00:49:04.719 --> 00:49:07.199
I just got a new one on my uh on my dually.
00:49:07.599 --> 00:49:10.960
Dude, it looks they got anything for the van out there?
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:13.599
We can talk to them.
00:49:14.800 --> 00:49:16.079
Something custom.
00:49:16.480 --> 00:49:21.679
Well, the uh yeah, as you can see, they got a mammoth on their sign up here that they that they added in here.
00:49:21.760 --> 00:49:22.159
That's right.
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:24.639
I just saw you added that in here.
00:49:25.039 --> 00:49:25.920
Shout out, Briley.
00:49:26.000 --> 00:49:27.519
New intern, first podcast.
00:49:28.320 --> 00:49:29.519
First podcast today.
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:34.000
Uh so the bedrock truck beds, we got 'em, we have three of them on our trucks.
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:37.760
Not on one truck, but three trucks with a bedrock truck bed, thank you.
00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:40.480
And dude, they're the toughest truck beds.
00:49:40.559 --> 00:49:45.920
So because of that, what is the toughest thing about working for Dale Brisbane and rodeo time?
00:49:47.599 --> 00:49:55.840
Oh man, we kind of call like you know, most of most everyone that works out here is guys.
00:49:56.079 --> 00:50:01.119
Uh we've got a few girls that work in the warehouse, but they're not really interns and they're from around here.
00:50:01.280 --> 00:50:14.320
But you're you're essentially just in we call it the Dale calls it the Lions Den, you know, like which I I was thankful uh when I was growing up, I had I always hung out with older people anyway.
00:50:14.480 --> 00:50:18.239
So uh I don't want to sound arrogant or by any means.
00:50:18.320 --> 00:50:21.760
I'm not saying I'm tougher than anybody, but I got I I had to have thick skin.
00:50:21.840 --> 00:50:24.079
I was running around my older cousins and whatnot.
00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:36.400
And so I was just kind of used to that kind of thing, but uh man, it they'll uh if you show any signs of weakness in that room, like a joke that you don't like, they'll attack it.
00:50:36.559 --> 00:50:38.719
Oh, that's the only joke you're gonna hear, you know.
00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:44.800
So, but uh it it isn't uh it's not like in a bullying type way at all.
00:50:44.880 --> 00:50:46.800
It really does come from like a place of love.
00:50:46.960 --> 00:50:53.679
Like Carson's like one of my best friends, but I've probably been madder at Carson than I have most people in my life, you know.
00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:57.679
It just like that's just you spend that much time with somebody, that's how it's gonna be.
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:10.559
So yeah, we're uh it's it's a warehouse full of dudes, and uh they're gonna find your deepest and darkest insecurities, and then they're gonna make some jokes about it, see how you feel, you know, and handle it.
00:51:10.800 --> 00:51:25.599
Yeah, I heard you on I heard you on the podcast the other day on Dale's talking about uh how somebody was like, You you you can't offend me, or what what you can't I made the mistake of saying that when I got here, but I think Ryan said it too when he showed up, and that's the worst thing.
00:51:25.679 --> 00:51:27.360
Like I Because then they'll find the line.
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:32.719
Oh my gosh, like they yeah, I I kind of had to it was about four months in.
00:51:32.800 --> 00:51:34.320
I had a little spaz episode.
00:51:34.400 --> 00:51:37.599
You gotta stay at a certain point, like you gotta let them know where the line is, you know.
00:51:38.719 --> 00:51:39.360
So yeah, yeah.
00:51:39.679 --> 00:51:45.119
They they'll they'll get you to that point, but they you know, they're like, all right, that's Ty's line.
00:51:45.360 --> 00:51:47.440
Everything everything in front of that was good.
00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:51.679
And uh, but yeah, you gotta the lines, Dan.
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:52.079
Right.
00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:53.679
That's pretty that's a pretty good name for it.
00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:54.880
That's that's what it is.
00:51:54.960 --> 00:51:56.880
It can it's ruthless in there sometimes.
00:51:57.119 --> 00:51:58.719
It's a pretty good name for it.
00:51:59.039 --> 00:52:00.639
That's the toughest thing.
00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:04.719
I think for someone coming in, yeah, because Oh, for like a like an intern cover.
00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:08.559
It's uh I don't because I don't know.
00:52:08.639 --> 00:52:13.679
I don't I don't think a lot of people nowadays are necessarily used to that.
00:52:13.840 --> 00:52:18.960
And especially I don't want to, I don't want I'm not saying like people are soft now.
00:52:19.039 --> 00:52:31.360
I'm not one of those people that just believes that, but I think uh yeah, like maybe that group a few years younger than me, they might not have been as hard on one another as because it's just not socially acceptable anymore.
00:52:31.760 --> 00:52:37.199
And again, I don't think it's bullying, I think there's just a healthy level of like you know, back and forth.
00:52:37.440 --> 00:52:40.159
Yeah, that you have to be like if you're a man, you gotta take it.
00:52:40.239 --> 00:52:45.920
And then like if you don't like it, well you better be willing to do something about it, you know.
00:52:46.159 --> 00:52:47.599
So I think that's healthy.
00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:49.440
I think that's good for building character.
00:52:49.519 --> 00:52:59.679
So I think some people get here and maybe aren't from a area that does that or didn't go to a school where they had friends that did that, and that's probably a little bit of a I mean it sounds like a locker room, right?
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:00.239
A hundred percent.
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:00.639
Yeah.
00:53:00.880 --> 00:53:06.320
So like if you get somebody that came in that didn't play sports or something, like this might be the first time they've ever been around.
00:53:06.800 --> 00:53:08.480
And they might think you're being mean, you know.
00:53:08.559 --> 00:53:08.880
Uh-huh.
00:53:09.039 --> 00:53:11.519
So, but yeah, you just gotta have thick skin.
00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:14.320
You what how has it changed?
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:20.320
Because you you do have a lot of people coming in and out, but since you came to the two Dales.
00:53:20.719 --> 00:53:21.440
To Rodeo Time?
00:53:21.679 --> 00:53:24.320
Yeah, since you came to Rodeo Time to now, how has that changed?
00:53:24.639 --> 00:53:41.679
It is uh just we've become just more like polished and refined, you know, and uh like when I when I first got here, it's not like like he was doing fine, obviously, you know, like I'd heard of him, I'd watch a bunch of his videos.
00:53:42.159 --> 00:53:43.039
What year was that?
00:53:44.000 --> 00:53:47.840
I mean it was four four years ago in uh August.
00:53:48.639 --> 00:53:49.119
So next month.
00:53:49.440 --> 00:53:49.840
Yeah.
00:53:50.159 --> 00:54:12.880
And uh but it was and he still has a whole lot, like he still has a lot of kind of shoot from the hip type mentality, but as far as the like the system that we uh export content and get it out there, we he's just really kind of through trial and error and just doing it, you know, for four additional years, you just you kind of just become a well-old machine with it, you know.
00:54:13.039 --> 00:54:21.119
And uh and I think that's for anyone wanting to do media, and you probably underst understand this as well.
00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:28.400
Like you you kind of have to be intentional with everything and uh like people's attention spans now, man, it's crazy.
00:54:28.480 --> 00:54:36.079
Like if you don't you got like a second to get them, you know, and if your first word in your video is um, well like go they're scrolling, you know.
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:49.920
Like it's and I don't I don't like I don't I'm not necessarily a fan of that, but that's just like if you're gonna choose to do media, that's the world that you need to realize that you're getting into, you know, and and and making engaging content.
00:54:50.400 --> 00:54:56.400
Uh yeah, like you've you've gotta you've gotta really hone it in and be intentional with everything.
00:54:56.559 --> 00:55:00.400
And I think that's I think we've really honed that in in the last four years.
00:55:01.039 --> 00:55:16.320
I th I I think that people mi miss not misunderstand, but underestimate the empire kind of that y'all have built to like well, I remember walking in and seeing you know, you're the seven editing tables, and I was like, I got one dude.
00:55:16.559 --> 00:55:16.800
Yeah.
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:25.920
And and you know, you don't I don't think the Dale Brisbee way is uh is the only way, you know, like you're an example of that.
00:55:26.000 --> 00:55:29.679
Like you've done very well and you don't need an editing room of eight people.
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:31.039
Like that would be way overkill.
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:41.280
You know, and and there are times where uh you know eight is overkill for uh for us because you're not you don't have just a plethora of content all the time, you know.
00:55:41.440 --> 00:55:50.159
Like he's got seasonal, he's got a life, but he's not all the time, like he's not just I mean, we do a bunch of recording, but it's not like we're just running a camera 24-7.
00:55:50.400 --> 00:55:50.719
Yeah.
00:55:51.039 --> 00:55:54.960
Um, but uh yeah, there's there's other ways to go about it.
00:55:55.039 --> 00:56:04.320
I just think the most important thing is like is just be inten every second of the video that you're putting out or the reel you're putting out, like you have to be intentional with it.
00:56:04.480 --> 00:56:13.840
Like you can't leave uh like dead space and like you gotta really it's gotta be lean, you know, and make sure to make sure it just grabs people.
00:56:13.920 --> 00:56:15.760
That's just the way the way it is nowadays.
00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:26.159
It seems like your network of people has like the network that uh Rodeo Time has around them is quite elite too.
00:56:26.400 --> 00:56:31.679
Like when you have Cody Johnson and Kyle Hamilton coming in to do in the same week to do a podcast.
00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:32.480
For sure.
00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:41.440
Um yeah, we've we've I think the yeah, the people that we're able to reach has has has changed a little bit in those four years too.
00:56:41.519 --> 00:56:46.400
You know, we've just bumped shoulders with a few uh I don't even know what stuff.
00:56:46.880 --> 00:56:49.519
Yeah, you know, just some more infl influential people maybe.
00:56:49.679 --> 00:56:56.239
And um but I think that just comes from like you know, trudging along and doing the monotonous every day.
00:56:56.400 --> 00:57:04.559
It's like that podcast, like you don't get Cody Johnson on that podcast if you don't do the 200 episodes before that, yeah.
00:57:04.800 --> 00:57:11.840
So uh which does blow my mind because we're on 78 and I feel like I've been doing it for a while.
00:57:12.159 --> 00:57:18.239
I heard someone say that like the first hundred episodes of a podcast are just practice.
00:57:18.400 --> 00:57:20.480
And I think Thanks for being my practice.
00:57:20.719 --> 00:57:23.119
Yeah, you know, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:35.679
But uh and that doesn't mean they're uh it doesn't mean they're not worth anything or not worth doing, but like I think podcasting, and look, I'm I'm a big consumer of podcasts, like Rogan's not the only one I listen to.
00:57:35.840 --> 00:57:40.239
It is a podcast because registered ranching is like the other one that you haven't missed, of course.
00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:41.360
Yeah, of course.
00:57:41.679 --> 00:57:55.039
Uh but podcasting is a it's a skill, you know, and it you can be really good at talking to someone at the bar or at church or whatever, but if you put a microphone and 4K cameras in front of you, well, it doesn't always translate.
00:57:55.199 --> 00:58:00.079
And and you you've probably done a lot of podcasts with cowboys are funny.
00:58:00.159 --> 00:58:07.199
They're uh you know, you give them a coarse light and sit them around like outside somewhere and they'll tell you the craziest story.
00:58:09.039 --> 00:58:12.239
You put some lights on them and a camera and they they clam up, it's it's tough.
00:58:12.639 --> 00:58:16.480
And uh because um we experience that too, you know.
00:58:16.559 --> 00:58:27.519
But uh yeah, it's it it really is like conversation is kind of an art in itself, and uh yeah, it just takes it takes time and reps like anything else, you know.
00:58:29.039 --> 00:58:29.519
So true.
00:58:29.920 --> 00:58:31.599
I feel like I've heard that hundred number two.
00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:34.239
But how many has Dale done now?
00:58:34.400 --> 00:58:34.880
What episode?
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:39.440
I think we're in the four hundreds, like four seventy maybe or something like that.
00:58:39.840 --> 00:58:46.719
But yeah, it I mean shoot, Rogan's done like I mean two thousand and something, you know.
00:58:47.280 --> 00:58:48.960
So what do you two a week?
00:58:49.360 --> 00:58:50.960
Is what two a week, sometimes three.
00:58:51.199 --> 00:58:51.920
Sometimes three.
00:58:52.079 --> 00:58:52.400
Yeah.
00:58:52.880 --> 00:58:56.079
So and I mean his are kind of crazy, like three hours.
00:58:56.320 --> 00:58:59.519
I don't I don't think anyone, I don't think everyone needs to do that.
00:58:59.840 --> 00:59:09.920
Uh I do think a lot of good podcasts are an hour long, but he's just gotten so good at it, you know, he can he can keep you hooked for three hours, and that's just how he likes doing them.
00:59:10.079 --> 00:59:12.000
So he does make it.
00:59:12.239 --> 00:59:12.719
He does.
00:59:12.800 --> 00:59:16.000
It seems like he made because didn't you get to work out or something while you were down there?
00:59:16.159 --> 00:59:17.519
So we worked out with Tim Kennedy.
00:59:17.760 --> 00:59:18.400
Oh, that's right.
00:59:18.480 --> 00:59:18.960
Yeah, that's right.
00:59:19.199 --> 00:59:20.239
Gosh, that was the worst.
00:59:20.400 --> 00:59:21.920
I was I chipped my tooth that day.
00:59:22.000 --> 00:59:22.719
I threw him up.
00:59:23.039 --> 00:59:24.079
Oh it's terrible.
00:59:24.320 --> 00:59:32.079
Yeah, Tim, I've I'd met Tim like once before that, and uh he's a an intense individual.
00:59:32.239 --> 00:59:39.920
I think uh I'd like I have a deep admiration for him, obviously, but that brother is locked in all the time, you know.
00:59:40.079 --> 00:59:48.320
And uh so he he kind of takes pride in uh you know whipping people's butt in the gym.
00:59:48.800 --> 01:00:12.800
So we showed up at his gym, and that's what he purr his ask, and uh we get there and he's like rigged up with uh he put a heart rate monitor on his chest and it Bluetooth his heart rate to a TV, and him and another guy that was built just like him, they look like copy and paste, like just both these superjacked dudes in their 40s, we're having a competition the entire time on who could he keep the highest heart rate.
01:00:13.039 --> 01:00:13.679
Keep the highest.
01:00:13.920 --> 01:00:16.880
Yeah, like they wanted to prove that they were working harder.
01:00:16.960 --> 01:00:17.920
And wow.
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:20.000
Yeah, so we get in, we get in there and work out.
01:00:20.079 --> 01:00:21.280
I thought I was in pretty good shape too.
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:25.039
I was like, I mean, I was in the best like weightlifting shape I'd been in in my life.
01:00:25.280 --> 01:00:28.400
And we did like 20 minutes in.
01:00:28.719 --> 01:00:34.559
Um he does like CrossFit stuff, so there's no, you don't take breaks, you just go to the next station.
01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:41.519
And we went hard for like 20 minutes, and uh, and then there was like a break, and I was like, oh yeah, dude.
01:00:41.599 --> 01:00:43.920
I I and then he's like, All right, that was your warmup.
01:00:44.079 --> 01:00:45.360
I hope you're you're loose.
01:00:45.679 --> 01:00:46.559
And I was whipped.
01:00:46.639 --> 01:00:49.119
Like I was like, oh, this is I thought that was the workout.
01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:49.360
Yeah.
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:59.440
And uh man, he proceeded to like it was I had to work out with him, he's jacked, and like I couldn't drop, you can't drop weight because it's you know, you're moving.
01:00:59.519 --> 01:01:01.199
So I was just struggling the entire time.
01:01:01.280 --> 01:01:04.480
And yeah, like I was throwing up like 10 minutes into the real workout.
01:01:04.559 --> 01:01:05.440
Oh it was awful.
01:01:05.599 --> 01:01:07.599
I chipped my tooth trying to like clean this.
01:01:07.760 --> 01:01:08.960
I don't even know what the weight was.
01:01:09.039 --> 01:01:14.480
I was like so dizzy and delirious by then, but like I went to clean it and push it up and chip my tooth.
01:01:14.639 --> 01:01:16.880
I like had to spit a piece of my tooth out on the floor.
01:01:17.599 --> 01:01:21.599
That was probably the only tough thing I did that day in that gym, was just spit my tooth out.
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:24.159
But yeah, he's he's a tough guy.
01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:25.119
Where was I go?
01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:26.000
Oh, the experience.
01:01:26.239 --> 01:01:26.719
Yeah, sorry.
01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:31.760
No, that uh I forgot what but it again like that was part of the yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:01:31.920 --> 01:01:33.519
Or I guess experience of your trip.
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:43.920
But uh like I would love to make I would love to make this more of an experience, like to get to get some guys, maybe it's after my first hundred and fifty, but for sure.
01:01:44.239 --> 01:01:46.960
Bring them in, people who haven't ranched, get them to ranch.
01:01:47.119 --> 01:01:47.280
Yeah.
01:01:47.519 --> 01:01:50.320
Cook them a steak that night, podcast the next morning.
01:01:50.639 --> 01:02:01.519
I mean, there are there are a lot of people that uh and we've kind of amped up I hate the word like collaboration, like that's just such a like thing.
01:02:01.920 --> 01:02:02.800
Y'all really have though.
01:02:02.960 --> 01:02:08.960
But I think that's um like a really important thing today is for the business.
01:02:09.199 --> 01:02:13.039
Yeah, like collaborating with other influential people with followings.
01:02:13.119 --> 01:02:20.960
And and like if you if you did something like that, you know, like we I think you'd be surprised how many people like want a taste of that, you know.
01:02:21.119 --> 01:02:32.400
And uh yeah, like anyone that you can get that has eyeballs on them to just bring here and show them the ins and outs, like only good can come up can come of it, you know.
01:02:32.880 --> 01:02:33.679
I think so.
01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:44.960
So yeah, that's that's a that's one thing that um I do enjoy that we do is uh you know, like a lot of people, they just you go to the grocery store, you're so disconnected from everything.
01:02:45.039 --> 01:03:14.719
You don't really understand like where everything and then like everyone just thinks that just because something has to die to put food on the table if that thing lived a miserable life, like leading up to that point, you know, like it's just so many people don't realize like the love and care and like the time, like it's and I've seen y'all have been posting, maybe I'm just now rializing it, but y'all have been posting a lot about uh maybe not a lot, but you have been posting about putting the bull rope around the bull's nuts.
01:03:14.880 --> 01:03:15.280
Yeah, yeah.
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:17.679
Like you'd be surprised like how many people think that.
01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:24.159
And I mean, I'm not gonna say I thought it before I I started like getting on bulls, but like I had heard it.
01:03:24.320 --> 01:03:28.079
I just in my mind, like I'd been around cattle, I just knew that didn't make sense.
01:03:28.480 --> 01:03:43.119
But yeah, like a lot of people will just they just think that's what does it, and it's not, you know, and so but but like if you heard that, you know, third hand through somebody, you'd be like, yeah, like rodeo as a whole is creme, you know.
01:03:43.360 --> 01:03:47.679
But no, like it's it's they're athletes, they're treated like athletes.
01:03:47.760 --> 01:03:55.760
Like, I mean, a lot of there's some buckables out there that are treated better than some PETA person's dog, have their own nutritionist, yeah.
01:03:55.920 --> 01:04:01.679
Like they're getting the best protein if they so much as show signs of limping, they're going to the to the vet.
01:04:01.920 --> 01:04:05.119
Like it's just yeah, people just don't get it.
01:04:05.199 --> 01:04:12.639
And I I do like that which you guys do a lot of that too, is just providing a window in, you know, from someone's computer or phone.
01:04:12.800 --> 01:04:17.280
Um I think that's really important work to be done, like to in this day and age.
01:04:17.519 --> 01:04:22.079
And y'all do kind of that experience too with Pete like when Mexican OTK get on his first bull.
01:04:22.480 --> 01:04:22.960
Yeah, for sure.
01:04:23.119 --> 01:04:26.880
Like young Amish male showing up, you know, like stuff like that.
01:04:26.960 --> 01:04:27.760
It it is a lot of fun.
01:04:27.840 --> 01:04:32.000
Like who's the guy, I should know this, the guy from Florida that the naked.
01:04:32.079 --> 01:04:32.159
Yeah.
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:33.199
Danny Duncan, yeah.
01:04:34.159 --> 01:04:34.960
Why is the naked?
01:04:35.280 --> 01:04:36.000
That's just his thing.
01:04:36.239 --> 01:04:38.239
Dude, it it's just what he does.
01:04:38.559 --> 01:04:41.840
And uh there's no other way to say this without sounding weird.
01:04:41.920 --> 01:04:44.000
You would not believe how fast he can get undressed.
01:04:44.079 --> 01:04:47.599
It's like a it's like a like a movie thing.
01:04:47.679 --> 01:04:51.920
Like you'll you'll just be talking to him and like turn around and like look back and he'll have no clothes on.
01:04:52.159 --> 01:04:55.599
It's it's it's weird to be around, but he's good at it.
01:04:55.679 --> 01:04:57.840
But that's kind of that's kind of his shtick.
01:04:57.920 --> 01:05:00.079
I was I was glad I didn't have to edit that video.
01:05:00.239 --> 01:05:01.199
So uh yeah.
01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:03.599
But I did have to point a camera at it.
01:05:03.679 --> 01:05:07.679
You can just kind of like like look and make sure it's there and then look away.
01:05:07.840 --> 01:05:23.920
But yeah, even him, you know, he's uh he's kind of one of like the OGs of YouTube, and uh like his audience would not know anything about that stuff if if he didn't go, if him and Dale didn't brush shoulders and meet, you know.
01:05:24.000 --> 01:05:26.320
So yeah, I think stuff like that's real important.
01:05:26.400 --> 01:05:30.880
Like, you know, for Danny to be excited about doing something like that, I think is a really cool thing.
01:05:30.960 --> 01:05:37.599
And I think there's a lot of people like Danny that would be excited to come down and and and and see how Ari Brown runs stuff, you know.
01:05:37.679 --> 01:05:44.239
Like I think that's seems to be like a I hate the word trend too, but like a trendy thing right now.
01:05:44.320 --> 01:05:44.800
Right, you know.
01:05:45.519 --> 01:05:46.400
I don't mind chasing.
01:05:46.719 --> 01:05:48.480
Yeah, you know, jump on the wave.
01:05:48.800 --> 01:05:52.079
But also like everyone the health kick right now seems to be big too.
01:05:52.159 --> 01:05:55.920
So like people want to know where their bees are coming from, you know.
01:05:57.599 --> 01:05:58.880
So I do like I do like that.
01:05:59.119 --> 01:05:59.760
Yeah, good for.
01:06:00.400 --> 01:06:16.320
That's that's an awesome thing that yeah, like the health and wellness industry seems to be the thriving one right now, and I think that's awesome because I think I do think we were kind of just being poisoned by you know what was in our food for a long time and what still is.
01:06:16.480 --> 01:06:21.760
So going to the White House m I mean I've been to the White House twice in the past three months.
01:06:22.079 --> 01:06:38.320
UFC 250 and yeah, well I didn't maybe not that one but uh but going there and like seeing all of the how policy impacts that I was like dude I like I knew that policy impacted it but going up there and hearing the policy talk and what people are trying to push and I'm like what?
01:06:38.719 --> 01:06:40.800
Yeah did uh was RFK there while you were there?
01:06:41.039 --> 01:06:41.920
Did you get to speak with him at all?
01:06:42.159 --> 01:06:53.679
Yeah, I got to meet him and I like I like what he's I mean I look I don't I'm not super involved politically, so like whatever, but his stance on food I I do greatly appreciate.
01:06:53.920 --> 01:07:02.000
Like he's he wants to clean it up and it's like when when those same companies are exporting clean stuff to like Europe and Canada, like that, okay.
01:07:02.079 --> 01:07:02.880
I went to Canada.
01:07:03.119 --> 01:07:06.880
Go to Canada and go into a gas station and just get any of their stuff.
01:07:07.039 --> 01:07:17.599
Like if you get Doritos in Canada, they're good, but you can tell they're just not blasted with whatever ours are because they have so many more like regulations about what people can eat.
01:07:17.760 --> 01:07:25.760
And like they'll have like I remember if you go to a gas station here and there's an egg salad sandwich in that gas station, like that is disgusting.
01:07:25.920 --> 01:07:26.559
And it looks disgusting.
01:07:26.800 --> 01:07:27.760
It's like sushi, yeah.
01:07:27.840 --> 01:07:27.920
Right.
01:07:28.079 --> 01:07:29.920
You're like, I'm gonna get a bug from this.
01:07:30.079 --> 01:07:35.280
Well, like they have like good food in gas stations in Canada because the all sips burrito, bro.
01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:35.840
Come on.
01:07:36.079 --> 01:07:37.440
I think that would kill a Canadian.
01:07:39.199 --> 01:07:43.119
But uh yeah, just like pay attention to their food while you're up there because it is different.
01:07:43.199 --> 01:07:46.400
And it's like, what's the reason for But I'm going to Wyoming, Cheyenne.
01:07:46.639 --> 01:07:47.679
Oh, Cheyenne, sorry, yeah.
01:07:48.000 --> 01:07:49.519
Not Calgary, Cheyenne, yeah.
01:07:49.760 --> 01:07:50.320
My bad.
01:07:50.480 --> 01:07:52.559
If you ever end up in Canada, check food out.
01:07:52.800 --> 01:07:53.280
Go to a cell.
01:07:53.679 --> 01:07:55.360
I was trying to think, I was like, did I say the wrong one?
01:07:55.840 --> 01:07:59.920
I guess I got I immediately started talking Canada whenever I was earlier, but yeah, you're right.
01:08:00.159 --> 01:08:01.519
Calgary's not in Canada.
01:08:01.920 --> 01:08:03.440
Wait, Cheyenne's not in Canada.
01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:04.239
Yeah, there you go.
01:08:04.480 --> 01:08:04.960
There you go.
01:08:05.199 --> 01:08:06.000
But that is interesting.
01:08:06.320 --> 01:08:06.960
The food side.
01:08:07.840 --> 01:08:08.719
I think it's a good thing.
01:08:09.119 --> 01:08:10.159
For sure, you know.
01:08:10.719 --> 01:08:13.599
Obesity is number one killer right now.
01:08:14.239 --> 01:08:18.720
The more impact you can have on that, that's saving a lot of people right there.
01:08:18.960 --> 01:08:22.640
Dude, I remember going to eat with y'all maybe at an FFA convention.
01:08:22.720 --> 01:08:23.840
I can't remember where it was.
01:08:24.159 --> 01:08:29.039
But we went to uh uh dang, where was this?
01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:32.319
We went to a uh one of the talk, it was like a taco shop.
01:08:32.640 --> 01:08:34.399
Oh, like uh Torchies or something?
01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:40.239
Yeah, it was it was a Torchies and like what y'all got versus what I got.
01:08:40.560 --> 01:08:45.760
And then I got the chips to go along with it, and I was like, dude, I am this is wild.
01:08:46.000 --> 01:08:47.600
I'm not like a stiffler with it.
01:08:47.680 --> 01:08:54.720
Like like this goes back to the discipline thing I mentioned about Dale is like if Dale picks a diet, that's his diet.
01:08:55.279 --> 01:09:03.520
I heard him say like he had he hadn't broke it for a year, but when he went uh Yeah, he'll usually like when he went to the White House for or uh Kid Rock's White House.
01:09:03.680 --> 01:09:04.560
He'll have a piece of pizza or something like that.
01:09:04.640 --> 01:09:05.600
Yeah, had a piece of pizza.
01:09:06.000 --> 01:09:11.039
But like the way he thinks, like, if when he chooses to do something, like he's full tilt in it.
01:09:11.119 --> 01:09:20.159
And I don't I try to eat pretty clean, and I think 90% of the time I do, but like shoot, at the end of the day, like you spend time on the road, it gets impossible.
01:09:20.239 --> 01:09:22.880
Like unless you just want to starve or like pack your lunch.
01:09:22.960 --> 01:09:24.079
But like who's doing that?
01:09:24.239 --> 01:09:26.000
So the road is so tough.
01:09:26.159 --> 01:09:26.319
Yeah.
01:09:26.479 --> 01:09:28.399
I mean, I think everything's fine in moderation.
01:09:28.479 --> 01:09:29.439
My mom used to tell me that.
01:09:29.520 --> 01:09:35.600
It's like in moderation, it's okay, but like you you can't eat McDonald's every day and expect to be okay, yeah.
01:09:35.760 --> 01:09:38.000
Like it's not realistic.
01:09:38.239 --> 01:09:42.159
So well, this leads me to one of my favorite segments of the podcast.
01:09:42.479 --> 01:09:42.880
What's up?
01:09:42.960 --> 01:09:44.560
Uh brought to you by Coca-Cola.
01:09:44.960 --> 01:09:46.000
Um, just got them on.
01:09:46.560 --> 01:09:47.439
That'd be cool, wouldn't it?
01:09:48.079 --> 01:09:49.039
No, no, we're not.
01:09:49.199 --> 01:09:50.399
Not sponsored by them.
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:54.880
Uh, but this begins to come the uh Ty Raj Pot.
01:09:55.600 --> 01:09:56.720
You get to ask the questions.
01:09:57.039 --> 01:10:03.600
Question or questions, which can be to me or to the peanut gallery over here.
01:10:04.159 --> 01:10:06.479
All right, Mikey, least favorite thing about working for Tucker.
01:10:06.800 --> 01:10:07.279
Ooh.
01:10:10.079 --> 01:10:11.199
Least favorite.
01:10:12.159 --> 01:10:13.119
Least favorite.
01:10:15.840 --> 01:10:18.399
I've I've got an idea that I'm gonna say after him.
01:10:18.640 --> 01:10:20.159
I can ask him to leave the room.
01:10:20.479 --> 01:10:22.239
You're gonna edit this if I see.
01:10:24.159 --> 01:10:26.720
Not passing security clearance to go to the White House.
01:10:27.439 --> 01:10:29.039
You didn't pass security clearance?
01:10:29.279 --> 01:10:29.680
Yeah.
01:10:31.039 --> 01:10:31.279
What?
01:10:31.520 --> 01:10:33.119
Oh, just not being invited to the White House?
01:10:33.680 --> 01:10:37.119
Oh, I I thought he actually got flagged by like the CIA or something.
01:10:37.600 --> 01:10:37.840
Me too.
01:10:37.920 --> 01:10:41.039
I was like, did you were you invited and just didn't know what happened?
01:10:41.520 --> 01:10:42.560
That's really about it.
01:10:42.960 --> 01:10:43.199
Trips.
01:10:43.600 --> 01:10:45.039
Not getting invited on some of the trips.
01:10:45.119 --> 01:10:47.439
Yeah, that that's part of my job too, brother.
01:10:47.520 --> 01:10:50.319
My boss goes and does some cool stuff and I don't get to go either.
01:10:50.479 --> 01:10:51.840
So I was.
01:10:52.239 --> 01:10:57.199
I was thinking you were gonna say the like not sleeping at conventions.
01:10:57.760 --> 01:10:58.800
That's what I thought you were gonna say.
01:10:59.279 --> 01:11:00.000
That's a good one.
01:11:00.399 --> 01:11:00.640
Yeah.
01:11:00.800 --> 01:11:05.039
No, I managed to sleep on the Yeah, you do.
01:11:05.359 --> 01:11:06.960
And I don't know.
01:11:07.199 --> 01:11:08.800
One of those nights, me and you went up.
01:11:09.439 --> 01:11:10.960
I was gonna bring that up earlier, dude.
01:11:11.039 --> 01:11:12.319
There was no time for sleeping, bro.
01:11:12.479 --> 01:11:13.680
I was gonna bring that up.
01:11:14.239 --> 01:11:15.119
Holy cow.
01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:16.560
The sun was coming up.
01:11:18.239 --> 01:11:19.680
That was the Can Am trip.
01:11:20.000 --> 01:11:20.319
It was.
01:11:20.479 --> 01:11:22.000
He was just celebrating your big win.
01:11:22.239 --> 01:11:23.600
He was happy for the boss.
01:11:25.520 --> 01:11:28.399
Yeah, the I remember we were after the win.
01:11:28.479 --> 01:11:32.079
I'm still on Cloud Nine and we all get back to the hotel and everybody's like kind of tired.
01:11:32.159 --> 01:11:32.319
Yeah.
01:11:32.479 --> 01:11:36.800
And then you're like, well, you're ready to go to what is it called?
01:11:36.880 --> 01:11:37.359
Uh Nashville.
01:11:37.600 --> 01:11:37.840
Broadway.
01:11:38.319 --> 01:11:39.039
You ready to go to Broadway?
01:11:39.119 --> 01:11:40.560
And I was like, dude, it is 9 45.
01:11:40.720 --> 01:11:44.159
It was uh it is gonna be 10 45 by the time we get there.
01:11:44.399 --> 01:11:44.720
True.
01:11:44.880 --> 01:11:51.279
That that they stuck us like just far enough away from from chaos that that probably kept you.
01:11:51.359 --> 01:11:51.600
I get it.
01:11:52.159 --> 01:11:54.960
If I was close, I do think I if it wasn't an hour.
01:11:55.199 --> 01:11:56.239
It was like a 40-minute Uber.
01:11:56.319 --> 01:11:56.560
I get it.
01:11:56.640 --> 01:11:57.199
That's miserable.
01:11:57.359 --> 01:11:57.760
Yeah.
01:11:58.079 --> 01:12:01.680
But hey man, if you're hungry, you gotta you gotta go eat sometimes.
01:12:01.760 --> 01:12:02.880
You gotta get out there.
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:04.560
I wasn't ready for bed.
01:12:05.520 --> 01:12:07.520
I remember thinking Mike was not gonna wake up.
01:12:08.000 --> 01:12:08.399
Oh no.
01:12:08.479 --> 01:12:14.720
I was I remember when we were coming in, I felt bad, I felt responsible for this because it was my idea.
01:12:14.880 --> 01:12:16.800
And I'm like, he's gonna miss this flight.
01:12:16.880 --> 01:12:19.039
And it in I mean indirectly, it's gonna be my fault.
01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:20.640
And you got to sleep in.
01:12:20.800 --> 01:12:21.279
I did, yeah.
01:12:21.359 --> 01:12:21.920
We had nothing to get.
01:12:22.159 --> 01:12:24.399
We had a late, like we weren't leaving till late the next day.
01:12:24.479 --> 01:12:26.239
It was we had to leave at like six or something.
01:12:26.399 --> 01:12:28.399
Yeah, I came, I fell asleep at five.
01:12:28.640 --> 01:12:29.279
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:12:29.439 --> 01:12:31.119
We drove, we drug in at five.
01:12:31.199 --> 01:12:31.439
Yeah.
01:12:31.680 --> 01:12:33.279
I remember you opening that.
01:12:33.359 --> 01:12:36.880
I knocked on your door and you opened that door, and I was like, whoa, dude.
01:12:37.199 --> 01:12:41.199
He had those rough like caffeine pouches.
01:12:41.840 --> 01:12:44.640
And we just were like eating those things like candy.
01:12:44.720 --> 01:12:45.920
Like it's it's no wonder.
01:12:46.079 --> 01:12:48.319
Like, we wouldn't have gone to sleep anyway if we didn't go out.
01:12:48.399 --> 01:12:50.640
Like if we were just popping those caffeine pouches like that.
01:12:50.800 --> 01:12:52.960
But yeah, that was that was fun.
01:12:53.119 --> 01:12:54.239
That was a really good time.
01:12:54.640 --> 01:13:09.439
There's a lot of those conventions where it's uh it's a little similar because it our our thing is like um you always have to have a try to have a drink with the late nighters and breakfast with the early risers because then you can reach both groups of people, make your sales.
01:13:09.680 --> 01:13:11.359
I've never heard somebody say that, but that makes a lot of sense.
01:13:11.760 --> 01:13:12.720
Those are two different demos.
01:13:13.039 --> 01:13:27.760
It is, it is because yeah, you got your Dales who are gonna work out at 6 45 in the morning and go to bed so early, and then you got YouTube come in at five when Dale's getting into the gym.
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:28.640
Yeah, yeah.
01:13:28.800 --> 01:13:36.720
I will say uh the the traveling that we do uh uh for work, I do have like a fondness for uh a good hotel bar.
01:13:36.880 --> 01:13:37.279
Like it.
01:13:37.439 --> 01:13:38.079
Dude, I love it.
01:13:38.239 --> 01:13:44.079
The people, I mean, yeah, I like that better than having to like search out like a happening place in a good town.
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:46.720
If you can just go to the hotel bar, people are chilling.
01:13:46.800 --> 01:13:54.560
It's always that's usually more of like a conversation-driven spot than like just like a rowdy party crowd, and they're I do like talking to people at those.
01:13:54.880 --> 01:13:59.439
Dude, I did Michael one time I invited him to a hotel bar and he didn't come.
01:14:00.239 --> 01:14:00.560
No.
01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:03.920
There was miscommunication.
01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:06.800
I think can't I think that was Cameron that was that was there too.
01:14:06.880 --> 01:14:10.399
You might have like invited me through Cameron and through Cameron?
01:14:10.880 --> 01:14:11.840
I invited you too.
01:14:12.000 --> 01:14:12.399
When?
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:13.600
New Year's.
01:14:14.800 --> 01:14:15.279
Oh, yeah.
01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:21.760
Well, I had sh you can you can blame that on one of those names we'd have to censor out if I said it on this podcast.
01:14:24.159 --> 01:14:25.600
Yeah, we did have a miscommunication.
01:14:25.680 --> 01:14:31.760
But I I what I like to do, I won't go to my lobby bar unless I'm staying at like the nicest hotel around there.
01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:38.800
But whenever we were staying in Fort Worth, I was staying at like the A C hotel something.
01:14:39.039 --> 01:14:39.920
It was okay.
01:14:40.159 --> 01:14:45.920
But I left and went to the Omni and went to that bar because those I was like I'll have to test that now.
01:14:46.079 --> 01:14:46.800
I've never done that before.
01:14:46.960 --> 01:14:48.319
Just hotel hopping into the bars.
01:14:49.600 --> 01:14:51.600
Just go to hotel bar to hotel bar.
01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:53.279
No, that's that's funny.
01:14:53.439 --> 01:14:54.880
I'll give that a shot on the road.
01:14:55.119 --> 01:14:57.039
Was that your final question?
01:14:58.720 --> 01:15:01.119
Uh what'd your can be?
01:15:02.640 --> 01:15:04.720
It's your pod, the Ty Raj pod.
01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:07.760
I'm about to get myself canceled if I keep asking questions.
01:15:07.920 --> 01:15:09.840
No, but yeah, that was what I wanted to know.
01:15:10.079 --> 01:15:14.880
Well, your uh your fake fight you had at the R.A.
01:15:14.960 --> 01:15:15.520
Brown ranch.
01:15:15.840 --> 01:15:17.359
Yeah, that was before you knew me at all.
01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:20.159
Yeah, that was like my first time around, Ty Rogers.
01:15:20.640 --> 01:15:27.600
Yeah, that was uh I also was unaware of there being another Ty Rogers.
01:15:27.760 --> 01:15:31.600
I didn't I didn't know Tyler before that.
01:15:32.720 --> 01:15:35.840
So yeah, that was Tell could you tell that story?
01:15:36.159 --> 01:15:40.960
Man, I we I hadn't been working for Dell for maybe like I it'd been like a month or two.
01:15:41.039 --> 01:15:52.720
Like I was still pretty green, and uh they did not tell me, and which at the at the time this is like all a lot, but this is just kind of how we do things, so you kind of get used to it.
01:15:52.800 --> 01:16:00.960
But we did not come up with that idea, and I say we, I had no part in it, but that idea was formulated on the drive to your her to your place.
01:16:01.359 --> 01:16:01.840
Okay, okay.
01:16:02.079 --> 01:16:06.880
So like it's not like any planning of dialogue went into that.
01:16:07.039 --> 01:16:26.880
It was just like you know, I kind of I kind of knew how it was gonna end as we I had to fight Del Brisbee and make it look believable, but I didn't sign up for I didn't know I was what I was signing up for was just him kind of being passive aggressively mean to me all day until until I eventually had like a crack.
01:16:27.199 --> 01:16:35.840
Yeah, like I'd never started a fake fight before, so I didn't really know, you know, well, what's my tipping point, you know, like at what time of day do I need to do?
01:16:36.079 --> 01:16:37.920
Should it be like off-rip?
01:16:38.000 --> 01:16:41.199
Are we just gonna or is it the last thing we do, you know, as we go?
01:16:41.359 --> 01:16:48.079
But yeah, it was uh yeah, it was just him kind of being uh passive aggressive.
01:16:48.159 --> 01:16:50.960
He was making jokes, and like I said, it's the lion's den.
01:16:51.199 --> 01:16:58.319
Some things I knew he probably meant deep down, but like he he had the guise of of setting up for this fake fight the whole time.
01:16:58.399 --> 01:17:05.279
And um we must have sold it pretty good because like Carson, Kevin, all those guys thought it was real.
01:17:05.520 --> 01:17:08.880
Uh you I think were probably pretty I was in on it.
01:17:08.960 --> 01:17:09.520
Were you in on it?
01:17:09.680 --> 01:17:11.520
Thankfully, it was uh had texted me.
01:17:11.760 --> 01:17:14.479
He was like, hey, FYI, we didn't really want to tell you.
01:17:14.720 --> 01:17:17.359
He's like, I didn't want to tell you, but we're gonna have a fake fight.
01:17:17.600 --> 01:17:18.880
Just break us up at some point.
01:17:19.039 --> 01:17:25.520
But uh Big Todd didn't know what was going on, and I think he was pretty He was just like a let him go.
01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:26.159
Yeah, yeah.
01:17:26.399 --> 01:17:28.880
So uh but yeah, that was that was funny.
01:17:28.960 --> 01:17:36.479
That I think that was like the first it might have been one of the first videos I was ever in, other than like, you know, the podcast I did when I showed up.
01:17:36.720 --> 01:17:37.840
But yeah, that was funny.
01:17:37.920 --> 01:17:39.920
I was that was the one I was known for for a while.
01:17:40.079 --> 01:17:43.359
Was like kids would see me at booths and they're like, oh, you're the one that fought down.
01:17:43.920 --> 01:17:46.720
It was like, yeah, that was that was it for a while.
01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:48.880
And then a couple more things happened.
01:17:48.960 --> 01:17:52.319
I think I'm still the the guy that got wrecked on Dude Perfect.
01:17:52.399 --> 01:17:53.680
I don't know what's gonna top that one.
01:17:53.840 --> 01:17:55.039
That's probably gonna be the one that sticks for me.
01:17:56.000 --> 01:17:56.720
That'd be a tough one.
01:17:56.880 --> 01:18:01.279
Uh yeah, I have to win the world in the bull riding or something to get that one to go away.
01:18:01.600 --> 01:18:02.319
Do something crazy.
01:18:02.640 --> 01:18:03.439
That'd be a good one.
01:18:03.600 --> 01:18:04.720
It might be the only thing.
01:18:04.960 --> 01:18:06.479
Yeah, just go do that real quick.
01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:08.159
Yeah, you know, I'll get on it.
01:18:08.319 --> 01:18:09.199
I'm working on it right now.
01:18:09.520 --> 01:18:10.319
You're working on it.
01:18:10.399 --> 01:18:10.800
I'm trying.
01:18:11.119 --> 01:18:12.239
When's your next uh year?
01:18:12.399 --> 01:18:14.640
You signed up for You Entered Anywhere right now?
01:18:14.880 --> 01:18:18.800
Uh Marble Falls Friday and uh This Friday.
01:18:18.960 --> 01:18:22.960
This Friday and then Taylor, I think Saturday.
01:18:23.760 --> 01:18:24.079
Yeah.
01:18:24.319 --> 01:18:25.279
Where's Taylor?
01:18:25.600 --> 01:18:26.560
Sounds east.
01:18:26.880 --> 01:18:28.960
No, it's down outside of Austin somewhere.
01:18:29.039 --> 01:18:29.439
Oh, okay.
01:18:29.600 --> 01:18:30.640
Yeah, they got two a year.
01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:36.239
I think I went to their one at the beginning and they got one at the end.
01:18:36.399 --> 01:18:37.680
So yeah, man.
01:18:38.399 --> 01:18:42.399
Well, um what is your two different directions?
01:18:42.479 --> 01:18:43.359
You can answer both or one.
01:18:43.520 --> 01:18:43.760
Okay.
01:18:44.000 --> 01:18:49.359
Favorite life advice or anything about your faith.
01:18:49.520 --> 01:18:54.800
Favorite Bible verse, chapter, a dialogue you just want to uh talk about.
01:18:55.279 --> 01:19:02.560
Yeah, I I I have a devotional I do every day, but I am not one of those people that can just recall scripture.
01:19:02.800 --> 01:19:04.079
I am jealous of the ones that can do that.
01:19:04.239 --> 01:19:05.039
I have to pull out my phone.
01:19:05.760 --> 01:19:07.680
Yeah, I I I need to start writing them down.
01:19:07.840 --> 01:19:22.560
But uh yeah, life advice would for me would be uh like just don't be a I Owingsville, Kentucky is one of those towns like like not a lot of people leave, you know, and and there's nothing wrong with that.
01:19:22.640 --> 01:19:23.840
I think that's okay.
01:19:24.079 --> 01:19:29.279
Uh like some of my best friends are born there and they're gonna die there, and that's and that's fine.
01:19:29.520 --> 01:19:40.960
Uh I just had like I just knew when I was young, I had something, and I like I think I'll one day return at least closer to home because if I'm gonna have kids in a family, they've got to be close to my folks.
01:19:41.119 --> 01:19:52.640
But uh I just had this thing, like I could feel it, that I felt called to just go out and and see country and experience life somewhere other than you know, Appalachia and Eastern Kentucky.
01:19:52.960 --> 01:19:54.159
So you went to Newcastle.
01:19:54.399 --> 01:19:55.600
Well, to the big city.
01:19:55.840 --> 01:19:56.399
Yeah, yeah.
01:19:56.640 --> 01:20:02.960
But I just I felt a calling to leave and and uh and it was like a it's a scary thing.
01:20:03.119 --> 01:20:13.199
Like I don't like looking back, sometimes I couldn't, like I still can't believe that I ended up falling through with it because even when I went to college, I was 40 minutes from my mom and dad, you know.
01:20:13.279 --> 01:20:16.000
If I had a flat tire or like my car broke down, they could come get me.
01:20:16.079 --> 01:20:29.520
Well it's like then all right, you go from that to you know they're a day and a half away from getting to you if even if something terrible happens, you know, like and and that was all real scary stuff.
01:20:29.680 --> 01:20:37.039
And there was uh like you never in in going and doing it, you kind of just feel like you're like you feel crazy for doing it.
01:20:37.199 --> 01:20:45.520
It's like why why do I feel like I should be going and doing all this when a lot of folks around me were content, you know, being at home.
01:20:45.680 --> 01:20:55.920
But I just I I was prayerful about it and I felt called really by God to just go and and and and and do this thing.
01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:58.880
And uh I'm just I'm glad I did.
01:20:59.119 --> 01:21:08.640
And I think even if like I packed up and went home tomorrow, like I would just cher, I would just cherish forever like the the experience that I've got here.
01:21:08.880 --> 01:21:12.880
And I think it like a lot of kids maybe are just afraid.
01:21:13.039 --> 01:21:21.600
I say kids, like you know, you can be in your 20s, like in college, you're still a kid, but uh like making that jump is scary.
01:21:21.840 --> 01:21:23.439
And you can always go home.
01:21:23.520 --> 01:21:25.439
That's that's what my parents told me before I left.
01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:38.079
Because as as hell-bent as I was and as sure as I was that this was a place, you know, when the bags are packed and your truck's running and you're about to pull out of the driveway, well, like doubt will creep in to anyone at that point.
01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:43.920
And uh both my parents, like thank God, were just so cool and supportive about it.
01:21:44.000 --> 01:21:48.640
But they were like, look, you can you can always come back, home's gonna be here, it'll be all right.
01:21:48.960 --> 01:21:50.479
Uh go and do it.
01:21:50.720 --> 01:21:55.119
And I think a lot of people just kind of need a little push to do that.
01:21:55.199 --> 01:21:57.359
And thankfully my folks are there to give that to me.
01:21:57.439 --> 01:22:05.359
But yeah, like if you're if you're young and you have that desire to go, like you don't feel contained to to where you were just happened to be born.
01:22:06.239 --> 01:22:08.720
Yeah, go world's a big place, go see some of it.
01:22:09.119 --> 01:22:11.039
Well, I did like a couple times today.
01:22:11.199 --> 01:22:15.520
You've like uh you're like, hey man, that was a God thing, or that was like God's hand on that.
01:22:15.760 --> 01:22:16.079
For sure.
01:22:16.319 --> 01:22:30.880
Are those things you noticed during, or was that like looking back and realizing Oh, I the call to leave is like the call to leave home at that time of my life was I mean, it was it was the strongest godly thing I think I'd ever felt.
01:22:30.960 --> 01:22:35.680
Like it was just like I've never been more sure of a decision in my life.
01:22:35.760 --> 01:22:37.359
It's like I could feel it in my chest.
01:22:37.439 --> 01:22:41.279
Like I was being pulled, you know, I was being pulled west, you know.
01:22:41.680 --> 01:22:55.920
Because I know there's a lot of people today like that that may be listening to this podcast saying, Well, how do I know uh praying about it, but how do I know what if this is my thoughts or if it's God that is leading me to think this?
01:22:56.319 --> 01:23:03.359
Uh I think for me, um, which I was uh I was pretty lost at that point in my life.
01:23:03.439 --> 01:23:06.319
Not it's not like I was I wasn't doing anything.
01:23:06.479 --> 01:23:08.319
Like I was, I'm still I was still the same guy.
01:23:08.399 --> 01:23:09.199
I just didn't have direction.
01:23:09.279 --> 01:23:15.600
I didn't know what I wanted to do, and like the future that I thought I wanted just kind of like crumbled in front of me, and I didn't have a backup plan.
01:23:15.840 --> 01:23:19.920
So uh lost is in the sense I I just was unsure of my purpose.
01:23:20.159 --> 01:23:40.399
And uh yeah, like in in just getting interested in in the Western industry and getting into rodeo, like, and then finding Del Brisbee and all that stuff, and I was super, super prayerful like about uh like what God had had planned for me at that time.
01:23:40.640 --> 01:23:51.840
And I think uh yeah, I just it's hard to explain, but like the feeling in your gut thing is such a cliche, but I just felt such a pull, such a call.
01:23:52.079 --> 01:23:58.640
And even as I was striking out, like you know, that rodeo time wasn't messaging me back for a year.
01:23:58.960 --> 01:24:01.840
And it like it never wavered with me.
01:24:01.920 --> 01:24:08.079
Like I just knew that's where I was meant to be, and and so then God opened that door with Austin, like put me down here with Austin.
01:24:08.159 --> 01:24:16.720
And and then it turns out like when I did get hired, they said part of the reason they were willing to give me that job was like they saw that I made the first step on my own.
01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:28.159
It's like, hey, you already you already left to take that chance because we get kids from that far away that have never been that far away from home, and they last like two or three days and they want to leave, and that's fine.
01:24:28.399 --> 01:24:30.880
And but you never know what kind of person is gonna be that.
01:24:31.039 --> 01:24:39.840
So I made that first I was diligent, I was prayerful, I had faith, I felt like I was being pulled, and then and then like God opened the first door for me.
01:24:40.000 --> 01:24:55.199
And then you from there, I think it's up like He gave me the opportunity, but you gotta have the courage to like step through that threshold, that door, and that's what uh that's what working for Austin was for me, and then it just kind of yeah, it rolled on from there.
01:24:55.439 --> 01:24:59.279
Well, I think it's cool too that it didn't sound like it was just right away that you got that answer.
01:24:59.600 --> 01:25:07.760
Yeah, it was like you were you was yeah, it was yeah, I think I think that was like a test of my faith for sure.
01:25:08.000 --> 01:25:36.800
And uh I think there there've been times in my life where I've been more disciplined in uh in going to church and in and in reading my Bible, but like I was brought up through the church, never missing a Sunday, and one of the things that like I think the strongest the the greatest strength I have in in my religion was just I just have like I I know God has just blessed me so much in this life that I I just have the confidence and I know he's gonna continue to do it.
01:25:37.039 --> 01:25:45.359
And there's a fine line there, I think, from just like it's not like I just think I can just waltz through life and you know like nothing bad's gonna happen.
01:25:45.520 --> 01:25:53.600
And like I know that he's blessed me with the the tools and the get like to to work hard and and to be to be capable.
01:25:53.680 --> 01:26:00.560
And I just I've never doubted him giving me the opportunity to succeed and and to move on and and and to kind of show me the way.
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:05.039
So uh yeah, I've never been that great at quoting scripture.
01:26:05.119 --> 01:26:14.640
I've never been like one that can convert somebody in a conversation, but I've just my relationship with God is just it's just like the trust in it is so strong for me.
01:26:14.800 --> 01:26:24.720
And I and I'm real thankful for my parents for for laying that foundation early, you know, because I think I would be a real like anxious and worried person otherwise.
01:26:24.960 --> 01:26:27.840
But I just I know he's gonna work it out.
01:26:27.920 --> 01:26:39.680
So well there's uh there's there is like some pretty there there's some solid data that talks about how reading the scripture lowers anxiety, yeah, lowers uh Michael.
01:26:39.760 --> 01:26:41.039
Have you heard uh cortisol?
01:26:41.279 --> 01:26:42.560
Yeah, that's lowers cortisol.
01:26:43.199 --> 01:26:44.880
But have you heard uh Tucker Teague?
01:26:45.680 --> 01:26:47.600
Have you heard Tucker Teague talk about that?
01:26:47.840 --> 01:26:48.159
Huh?
01:26:48.399 --> 01:26:49.920
Yeah, they're totally different.
01:26:50.000 --> 01:26:51.199
I found it out by him.
01:26:51.760 --> 01:26:52.079
Oh, really?
01:26:52.319 --> 01:26:52.800
Cortisol.
01:26:52.960 --> 01:26:54.239
Cortisol, is that what y'all talking about?
01:26:54.399 --> 01:27:01.760
No, I was talking about how how like just reading scripture and stuff literally lowers, stress and brings you peace.
01:27:01.920 --> 01:27:03.279
Christ is the Prince of Peace.
01:27:03.520 --> 01:27:09.119
Well, right, but it's sure it I mean there's literal data that talks about the how it changes your emotion and your mindset and stuff.
01:27:09.439 --> 01:27:09.680
Yeah.
01:27:10.159 --> 01:27:10.399
Yeah.
01:27:11.199 --> 01:27:14.720
Yeah, that's that's a hundred percent what it's what it's done for me.
01:27:14.880 --> 01:27:28.000
Um yeah, the and like when I hear a worried person, you know, like I like I'm I'm just so glad that that that maybe it's just the way my brain's wired, but I've just never thought that way, you know.
01:27:28.079 --> 01:27:37.359
Like I just kind of have this peace knowing that that things are gonna work out, and and when they do get hard, I've been gifted with the the tools to take care of and to handle myself.
01:27:37.520 --> 01:27:41.920
So, you know, like if you know that, then life ain't too scary most of the time, you know.
01:27:42.079 --> 01:27:43.760
Unless you're sticking your arm down a catfish hole.
01:27:44.479 --> 01:27:44.880
That is scary.
01:27:45.199 --> 01:27:49.199
And it's a little scary in that moment, but God's got you back there too, you know.
01:27:49.359 --> 01:27:59.439
So But there's a I mean, I was in the same shoes at at one point of like I'm 22, I'm about to graduate, and uh do I want to go back home?
01:28:01.680 --> 01:28:02.800
I don't know what I want to do.
01:28:03.600 --> 01:28:05.359
I think I was a junior when I first made that.
01:28:06.079 --> 01:28:07.520
Just like that thought came to mind.
01:28:07.600 --> 01:28:08.960
I was like, I only got a year left.
01:28:09.520 --> 01:28:10.960
Like, what am I going to do after this?
01:28:11.199 --> 01:28:12.960
And I I think it's very true.
01:28:13.119 --> 01:28:14.640
I I find it very true.
01:28:14.800 --> 01:28:34.079
Um I wish I could remember the the where it is in scripture, but it's like uh delight in the Lord and He will show you the desires of your heart and showing it's like, oh well, if I want to know what my desires are, like spend some time with the one who created me and I can find find out what what I want to do.
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:50.720
I don't know if you were this way either, but uh I remember uh like when I was growing up, which like my grandfather like raises beef cattle and we farm tobacco and stuff, and I just had such like a disdain for like I had no desire to do that.
01:28:50.960 --> 01:28:59.119
Like it whenever I'd have to go like set tobacco, like it was I would be so mad at my dad for making me do that, you know.
01:28:59.279 --> 01:29:04.880
And I just it I don't know why I had this to test towards it, but I had no desire for that life.
01:29:04.960 --> 01:29:09.520
And then and even like the little town I grew up in, like I'm like, dude, this place sucks.
01:29:09.600 --> 01:29:12.319
Like the world's any place but here would be better.
01:29:12.399 --> 01:29:17.359
It's not I wasn't like a I didn't hate on it that hard, but I just I didn't think that's where I wanted to be.
01:29:17.439 --> 01:29:35.680
And then I remember my senior year, like you know, 17, 18, I don't know what switched, but like I just had this great admiration for my grandfather, and like I started I really like from then on, I every opportunity I could just ride in the truck with him, like I'd do it.
01:29:35.760 --> 01:29:38.239
And like I I fell in love with that life then.
01:29:38.640 --> 01:29:50.479
And uh I knew I wanted in to stay in that to be in the ag industry in some way, like for like for the rest of my life, and then but I still wasn't sold on this small town in eastern Kentucky.
01:29:50.640 --> 01:30:03.039
So I went and left and man, the the more world I see, it's like the more uh I think those like towns that size, even like Throckmorton, are just such a blessing.
01:30:03.199 --> 01:30:15.439
Like like dude, I I don't the world is such a chaotic place, and when you stack people on people, you just get more chaos, and you get I don't think people are meant to live like that, you know.
01:30:15.520 --> 01:30:20.319
Like we're not meant to live in like square rooms stacked on top of each other.
01:30:20.479 --> 01:30:22.319
I think it's a gross way to experience life.
01:30:22.399 --> 01:30:37.119
Like towns like Throckmorton and Knoxville, Kentucky, like I think those like it's such a blessing to to live there and raise a family there, you know, and and uh it took me some some years and some maturity to realize that, but I just think that's how people are meant to live.
01:30:37.199 --> 01:30:45.039
Like I'm not I'm not saying you need to like raise all your own food, you know, and have a garden and all that, but like you know, I don't touch some grass.
01:30:45.199 --> 01:30:45.920
Touch some grass, man.
01:30:46.640 --> 01:30:47.359
Yeah, touch some grass.
01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:50.640
You gotta every now and then it's it's good for you.
01:30:50.720 --> 01:30:52.000
So agreed.
01:30:52.159 --> 01:30:52.720
Agreed.

01:31:00.880 --> 01:31:06.239
Dude, I did see I was looking for a picture to add to your to my story for you.
01:31:06.880 --> 01:31:08.880
I did some traveling through the gram.
01:31:09.039 --> 01:31:09.520
Yeah, that's true.
01:31:09.680 --> 01:31:10.960

Uh I grew it out.
01:31:14.560 --> 01:31:16.720
Uh I liked the way it hung out of my football helmet.
01:31:16.800 --> 01:31:18.479
But that's like the real some boy traveling.
01:31:18.640 --> 01:31:19.840

That was the that's what it's that's what started.
01:31:22.560 --> 01:31:30.239
And then somewhere in the midst of all that, like I discovered like 90s grunge music, and I was like, yeah, Eddie Vetter and Chris Cornell are pretty cool.
01:31:30.319 --> 01:31:31.279
