The Flatbed Podcast

A guy who was at one time one of the most recognizable faces in pro rodeo talks about his time rodeoing, the incredibly unlikely places where he started, and how those experiences shaped his life.

One of the nicest/most well-connected guys in our industry, and recently engaged, not to mention the man behind Texas saddlery.

The world tie-down roping champion in 1979, Tierney put together an even better season in 1980 to end Tom Ferguson's six-year reign as all-around champion and become the second rodeo cowboy to suppress $100,000 in earnings during a single season.

The hands-down most recognizable name in the horse sale industry, and truly one of the good guys Steve stopped by the studio while he was in town to quarterback the Rancho Rio sale!

Hands down the most fun I’ve ever had recording a podcast. Two of the most respectful and professional young guys in our sport. Broke past the wall of formal and just had fun hanging out for an hour. I hope you guys will have as much fun listening to this podcast as I had recording it

Miles is one of the most recognizable names in the team roping horse world right now. His partnership in the Relentless Remuda program along Trevor Brazile happened slowly at first then all at once. We were really excited to get to know the people behind the reputation, and meeting Daci explains a lot about the success of Miles :) great podcast glad to get to know them both better 

Some of the most interesting people in the entire team roping world, from training Timon, to fine metal refining in New York City, to circuit finals qualifications and even maybe a stolen trailer recover effort where the details don’t get discussed. Kenny and Mary Ann Brown are guaranteed to be one of our all time favorite guests 

One of the most recognizable faces in the team roping futurity world, and maybe THE nicest guy who’s ever swung a leg over one.

From the man who brought us “The Royal Crown” and Zesterra products, Matt Zancanella has one of the most fascinating and diverse careers in the western industry.   

Reined cow horse trainer turned team roping horse trainer and new resident of The Wickenburg area. Tommy is a wealth of knowledge about all things horses and the industry and you can add a really good podcaster to his list of achievements 

(Please don’t judge, this episode got released really behind schedule. Long story) What SHOULD be a first ballot hall of fame rodeo career in the steer wrestling, former PRCA board member, team roping producer, and one of the best humans in the western industry, we loved getting to sit down with Rod Lyman. 

One of the legends in lady's team roping, and one of the nicest people in our sport. We were so grateful Jimmi Jo Montera took the time to come tell her story and reflect on the evolution that has to take place in team roping as Women’s Team roping is making its move

From ranching to rodeoing, back to ranching, and now working with the most prominent beet pulp producers in the nation.

After a long rodeo career and time as a chaplain at Sam Houston horse race track, he planted one of the most influential Cowboy churches in the United States.

A man who needs no introduction, Wesley Thorp is one of the best heelers going in the PRCA.  A perennial at the NFR, and one of the founders of Equine Exchange we had a great chat about his life coming up in Throckmorton Texas and the people who shaped his life along the way 

Lightning and his cousin Milton Aguilera stopped by on their way to Lightning’s first NFR.  Milton was instrumental in getting the deal done for what would become the 2022 Prca head horse of the year.  Great friends, we were all so glad they were able to swing by and talk about all that went into this year.
