In this episode of Cowboy Cartel The Podcast, we announce an exciting new giveaway where you could win one of two American Hat Company straw hats! Plus, we'll be giving away another hat live on stream as soon as we hit 100 likes on our YouTube stream.

We also recap our recent meeting at American Hat, where we finalized plans for a new video series documenting the entire process of making a felt hat for the upcoming season. Get the inside scoop on a brand-new straw hat model from American Hat—though we can't show it just yet!

And if that wasn't enough, we share our plans for an upcoming hat shaping school and have a good laugh over Conor's mishap where he singed his beard while shaping a hat.
