Truly a pleasure to have singer songwriter, Kenny Feidler on the show. 

Kenny Feidler’s sound is dark, gritty, western rock n roll filled with thoughtful, honest songwriting. Feidler’s path to the stage started on the rodeo circuit, writing songs about the life and selling his music from the trunk of an old Cadillac. Now he racks up the miles with his band, traveling from his home on the plains of Western South Dakota, to fill up bars and dance halls across America’s Heartland. 

In 2024 Feidler has already shared the stage with Colter Wall, Josh Meloy, and Reckless Kelly. With multiple singles due to release this year and over 150 million streams in his career, it’s hard not to view this as a breakout moment for Feidler. However, Feidler is just grateful to make a living making music . 

Be sure to check out his latest single, "Choking on the Wire". @kennyfeidler

"Dale Brisby", a pioneer in the western industry, leading the way in the field of content creation. Also the self proclaimed, greatest bull rider of all time. Dale pulls the curtain back during this interview and shares insights into how the "Dale Brisby/Rodeo Time" brand was built over the past eleven years. 

Dale Brisby is the real deal and undoubtedly one of the most humble humans I have ever met, contrary to what you might see on his social media content. He has built a platform that the entire family can enjoy; shining a positive light on the cowboy way of life. His apparel brand "Rodeo Time", is a name that is well known throughout the industry. Go to any western event, whether it be performance horses or rodeo and you'll see kids and adults alike wearing Rodeo Time/Dale Brisby gear. We discuss all this and more throughout this interview.

Warning! This episode contains extremely foul language!

The 1st Amendment protects the freedom of speech here in the United States of America and Clinton Anderson fully exercises that right throughout this episode.

Clinton simply says out loud what most people are thinking and although he wraps those verbal thoughts in a blanket of curse words, there is a sense of authenticity that comes with them that you can't help but respect. 

He pulls the curtain back on the Downunder Horsemanship Empire. Three and a half hours of unfiltered and raw conversation. We talk business, horses, marketing, successes, failures and lessons he's learned along the way. 

Behind the profanity and foul language is a man that has mastered his craft as a clinician and horseman. Clinton Anderson has kept tens of thousands of people safe as they followed his method pursuing a journey with their horse and a better understanding of basic horsemanship.

Warning: last chance, if you click play then you're giving consent to have your hearing violated and your mind altered. I'm sorry and you're welcome... Enjoy the show!

PS: be sure to stick around til the end to hear about one of Clinton's most embarrassing moments in the arena. 

Jim Kiser is the mastermind behind the legendary Kiser arena drags that you'll see today at most every big performance horse event.

Tune in to this episode to hear how an idea for a piece of equipment to groom the footing for horse events in the late 80' turned into a business that has revolutionized the performance horse industry that we know today. 

Enjoy the show!!
