Archie Bradley Tells All: From Infamous Line Drive to His Crash Landing
In this candid and uncensored episode, we sit down with former MLB pitcher Archie Bradley. Archie shares the unforgettable moment when a line drive knocked him out, and opens up about his biggest regret in baseball. He takes us back to his humble beginnings, including growing up with a mom who was also his principal, and the awkward experience of his first big paycheck. Archie talks about his favorite teammate, a hilarious (and never before told) clubhouse story, and his definition of what it truly means to be a "teammate." Of course, we couldn’t skip over the importance of never throwing at Mike Trout. Archie also gives us a glimpse into life after baseball, including his exciting new business venture "Crash Landing," where farming is at the heart of everything. Tune in for an episode packed with laughs, wisdom, and insights you won’t hear anywhere else.

From Viral Videos to Ranching Realities: Tucker Brown on Farming's Future
We sit down with Tucker Brown, a 6th generation rancher from Texas, to discuss his unique perspective on modern farming and ranching. Tucker shares insights on "The Yellowstone Effect" – the growing fascination with cowboy culture – and how it’s influencing the next generation of ranchers. He also explains his concept of "edutainment," blending education and entertainment in his viral social media content. Tucker dives deep into the struggles of today’s farmers and ranchers, touching on the challenges of a down year, the growing power of corporations and foreign entities buying up American land, and the impact of new technologies like facial recognition in cattle. Plus, we debate the rise of direct-to-consumer meat products and what it means for both ranchers and consumers.
