Welcome to the official kickoff of Season 3 of The Joe Show. The past couple of years have been an incredible ride, and I’m excited about where this next season is headed.

To open things up, we’re sitting down with a showman who’s found success not just in the ring, but on the judging side as well. That’s one of the things I love most about the livestock industry. There are so many paths you can take, and today’s guest is a perfect example of that.

Brody Moeller recently earned High Individual Overall and was a part of the High Point Team at the 2026 National Western Stock Show 4-H Livestock Judging Contest in Denver, one of the most prestigious competitions in the country. We dive into what it took to reach the top, and the advice Brody has for those who want to follow in his footsteps.

When I made the sale at the Kansas City Royal this year, I got to watch Kelton Arthur, of Stillwater, Oklahoma, take his Grand Champion Steer through the ring. They read a little bio on each of us kids and I thought Kelton had a really neat story behind his steer, so I told my parents that I had to interview him. So today, we’re diving into Kelton’s journey in winning one of most prestigious shows in North America.

You might recognize my guest, Colt McComb, from your social media after his big win at the Indiana State Fair. We’ll talk about the story behind that unforgettable cowboy hat toss and the hard work that led up to it.

Talk about a summer to remember! I had the honor of having Chase Harker from Indiana on the show today. He’s a cattle kid that has been dominating on the circuit, racking up major wins at the Chi and Main Jr National Shows as well as the Simmental Junior Nationals. He also comes from a cool family with a long history in the cattle industry...  So here we go!

On this episode, I caught up with Brayden Lancaster of Kentucky. He’s already had an incredible summer winning big banners at the Exposition, Springfield and Louisville! We chat about his showing career and the pigs that helped him get there.

A lot of the kids that come on The Joe Show are your typical livestock kids...work hard, win some banners, and tell their individual story. But on this episode, we are joined by a typical livestock kid that has taken social media by storm! Karis Dadson from California has used showing livestock and social media to bring our “sport” into the mainstream through her famous stare. 

Meet Reagan and Rylan Miller, two accomplished sisters from Texas who have made waves this show season. From winning Grand and Reserve Champion Goat at the Texas State Fair to claiming Grand Champion Market Goat titles at both Rodeo Austin and the Arizona National, these girls have proven themselves as top-notch showmen. Don’t miss their story!

It’s Texas major season! I’ll be interviewing some of the recent champions, and first up is Cambrey Wilson. She just took home Reserve Grand Champion barrow at the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo with her crossbred pig, Howard. (Got to love that name!) Fun fact, Howard was actually raised by some friends of ours here in Iowa. We’ll talk about how an Iowa-bred pig ended up in Cambrey’s hands, along with what it takes to make a winner.

On today’s show, my guest knew she had something special when she came across Thunder. Madilyn Norvell from Oklahoma took home the Grand Champion steer title at the 2025 National Western Stock Show. Tune in to hear more about her big win in Denver, other accomplishments and what makes her stand out from the competition.
