  • Great podcast

    One of my favorite podcasts! I don’t follow the Rodeo world that close but I really enjoy learning more about it. The guests they have on here and great, and each episode always has a good look into mindset. It would be great to get some trainer in from the cutting/cow horse side of the world! Let’s Freakin Rodeo!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Over 50 Years Behind The Mic — The Greatest Rodeo Announcer Of All Time | Bob Tallman
Q: What happened after 2006, and why did the announcing partnership end in Las Vegas?
Tallman attributed the change to politics and money surrounding a successful event and changing television arrangements. He said the disagreement did not break his friendship with Boyd Barrett, and he later returned to the NFR in a different role.
Over 50 Years Behind The Mic — The Greatest Rodeo Announcer Of All Time | Bob Tallman
Q: How hard was it to break into announcing, practice your craft, and earn the respect of people who could put you in position to announce major rodeos?
