Welcome back to the 78644 Podcast. This episode takes us from the fields of Brownsboro Ranch to the downtown square in Lockhart. The episode opens with a look at how a local ranching family transitioned from farming to raising Angus and eventually Wagyu cattle, and how they’ve kept their operation local, from raising the herd to processing the beef. Joe Seth Roddy and Jack Montesinos from band “The Point”, join to talk about their musical roots, influences from around the world, and their upcoming tour. 

The Local Tracks segment features the track “Dave Dudley” by band Rattlesnake Milk, a trucking song with roots and rhythm that fit right into the Lockhart landscape. Chef Nathan Lemley gives us a look inside Commerce Cafe, about what he is preparing for the Lockhart Rising fire-cooking event.
