Episode 37: On Top in the Mile High Ring with Brody Moeller

Episode 43: Beyond the Miles with Jimmy Tibbits

I interview livestock exhibitors from all walks of life, but this conversation felt different.   Jimmy Tibbits of Mineral Point, Wisconsin, has earned some of the industry's highest honors, including Grand Champion and Reserve Champion Market Barrow at the Wisconsin State Fair, Beef Exhibitor of the Year, and was on a nationally winning collegiate livestock judging team. Yet, when reflecting on his journey, he didn't focus on the banners or buckles. He talked about the stories.   Because at its core, showing and raising livestock is about much more than winning. It's about the lessons learned, the friendships built, and the experiences that shape young people into the hardworking adults who are passionate about giving back to others.   The banners may hang on the wall, but the stories are what stay with us for a lifetime.

Episode 42: The Final Season with Chloe Kemp

On my show and in the world of livestock, we talk a lot about winning, but anyone who’s been part of it knows the real story is about the team behind the banners. And when you reach that final year of eligibility, every step in the ring means just a little bit more and you start to see it all a little differently.   Chloe Kemp is living that right now. As she reflects on her final season showing in Oklahoma, we’re going to talk about the team that helped shape her, the lessons she’ll carry forward, and what this journey has truly meant beyond the backdrop.

Landry Mabry recently took home one of the most competitive titles in the country, winning Grand Champion Market Hog while breaking a sale record and the internet during the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
