In this high-energy episode of the Champion Living Podcast, the crew kicks things off with some wild weather stories—from tornadoes hitting too close to home, to fishing trips that turned into storm-chasing adventures.

But it's not just storm talk… the guys dive into a packed conversation about recent rodeo events, including judging controversies at Rodeo Houston, how subjective scoring continues to impact the sport, and what athletes can actually control when the arena feels out of their hands.

Then, it gets real nerdy—in a good way—with a science-backed discussion on creatine supplementation. New research shows this staple supplement isn't just for gains—it can actually boost cognitive performance, especially when you're low on sleep. If you're traveling, competing, or just burning the candle at both ends, this part is for you.

They wrap it up with a breakdown of Beastmaster Pro Rodeos new Pro Gel line, gear innovations built for the serious athlete, and a preview of upcoming events and rodeo schools.
