Tommie Turvey Equine Extremist

May 19, 2015 by John Leave a Comment

The Lost Tommie Turvey Interview

Tommie TurveyLast year I booked Tommie Turvey for an interview.  I was excited.  Tommie is a big name in the horse industry.  We had a wonderful, hour-long interview.  Tommie described his life with horses an his experiences do everything from Medievel Times to Euro Disney to Movies and TV.  Once the interview was posted however, you could not hear my side of the interview.  Now, I know what you are thinking, “What could be better than an interview where you can’t hear John?”.  Yeah, me too!  But, the show didn’t flow.  The pauses where I was asking questions were just too annoying.

To make a really long story a little shorter, I kept working on the audio.  Yes, it’s been a year, but I’m tenacious and I know you would want to hear this show.  I finally found the problem and I’m re-posting the show.  I’ve edited out most of the comments that had dates back in 2014.  Those have all passed.  Don’t sign up for them.  Tommie Turvey won’t know what you are talking about them.  Anyway, I hope I edited them all out.

And, I take another shot at adding music to the show.  One of my favorite albums is Nathan from Nathan Cavaleri.  I’m not the best music reviewer, but I really want to add a bit of something outside of horses in the show.  I whope you enjoy it.  Either way, feel free to let me know.  My email is John@WhoaPodcast.com

Early Californios

May 12, 2015 by John Leave a Comment

Skills of the Early Californios Rancho


Early CaliforniosThe more I learn about the Early Californios the more I am impressed with their horsemanship.  There is a show coming up in Santa Barbara that, if you are anywhere close, you will surely want to see.  The Early Californio Skills of the Rancho Show is taking place June 5th-7th at the Earl Warren Showgrounds and admission for spectators is FREE!  On today’s show we have  Bruce Sandifer who has been a student of the Early Californios for some time.  Bruce explains some of the origins of this unique style of horsemanship. The Early Californios evolved a little differently than the cowboy horsemanship that was going on in other parts of the country.  The traditions and equipment they use are kept alive by the California Bridlehorse Association.

The event in Santa Barbara will him in conjunction with a working equitation show organized by the USWEA.  What is really cool about this show is that the equitation judges will grade the Early Californio tradition riders in their equitation.  Then, the cow people (sorry, not sure what they are called) will judge the working equitation riders in their cow work.  It is guaranteed to be a lot of fun.

Early Californios Skills of the RanchoAlong with the show there will be all kinds of vendors – bit makers, tack, clothing, even a bootmaker.  If you are like me, you really don’t need a reason to visit Santa Barbara, but just in case you do, this is it!

Off Farm Income

Off Farm Income

Matt Brechwald of the Off Farm Income Podcast with his family on the farm.

Matt Brechwald, host and producer of the Off Farm Income podcast, wanted to own a farm. That would place him the 2% of the US population that feeds this country.  Like many farmers, Matt would have to find another source of income outside the farm to supplement his operation.  I didn’t realize it, but 90% of the farmers in this country have Off Farm Income to supplement their farms and families.  Matt tells us exactly what Off Farm Income is and how some people solve this challenge.

There are a lot of farmers who have to find ways to make money outside the farm.  That’s where Matt comes in.  His Off Farm Income podcast investigates the many entrepreneurial ventures to make money.  Matt talks to people who have found unique and creative ways to bring in off farm income.  And, Matt knows about off farm income as well as anyone.  He lives it every day.  His 25 acre Idaho farm is a success because of the efforts of Matt and his family.

Matt credits Dan Miller, an entrepreneur and coach, with helping him focus on his strengths and find his passion.  Dan Miller’s podcast 48 days is a source of information and motivation to help people find their passion in life.

Unbranded the Film Ben Masters

March 10, 2015 by John 2 Comments

Press Play to Listen

Ben Masters ProduceUnbranded the filmr of Unbranded the Film

Unbranded the Film is a documentary about a horseback ride.  But this is not just any horseback ride, it is a ride that follows the Continental Divide, nearly 3,000 miles.  Ben Masters was a sophomore at Texas A&M studying wildlife biology.  Over the summer break he and a couple of friends thought it would be a great adventure to ride from Texas to Canada.  They needed a few more horses, but didn’t have much money.  Their solution was to acquire a few mustangs from the BLM.  That ride was in 2010.  The group rode for four months, but they did not make it to Canada.

After Ben got home he thought about the ride and how well the mustangs had performed.  They had actually out performed their good horses.  He also kept thinking about the untamed beauty he saw crossing this great country.  This is where the inspiration for Unbranded the Film was born.

Unbranded the filmIf Ben thought crossing the peaks of the Divide at 11,000 feet was difficult, he had no idea what he was getting into with Unbranded the Film.  The movie would obviously need money.  More importantly he would need a crew that was used to filming in extreme conditions.  Ben recruited Phill Baribeau to film and direct.  He also tag Korey Kaczmarek for cinematographer.  Ben started a Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds.  With the help of 1200 supporters and an assist from Western Horseman Magazine just 45 days Unbranded the Film raised over $170,000.

Unbranded the Film was picking up momentum as Ben recruited a few friends to ride along.  The Mustang Heritage Foundation got behind the project.  The group would use 16 mustangs over four months to cover 3,000 miles.

The Unbranded the Film is in “the can” as they say in Hollywood.  Ben and his group will be screening it at a variety of film festivals early this year.  He is hoping for a theatrical release by the middle of the year.  Ben talks about his inspiration for the film and the challenges in making it.

Kari Dell Montana Cowgirl Author

February 17, 2015 by John Leave a Comment

Montana Cowgirl Kari Dell

Kari DellMontana Cowgirl Kari Dell has lived around horses all her life.  She comes from a long line of tie-down ropers.  So many in fact, I wondered if there is a specific gene the family has that sends them careening down an arena.  Montana is rodeo country and that’s where Kari Dell fostered her love of the sport.  Here father has always favored the Roan Hancock line of Quarter Horses.  Known for, let’s say their “spunky” attitude, Kari Dell is very familiar with horses having a lot of personality.

Kari DellKari Dell has combined her love of rodeo and her experiences with those horses into her first published novel, The Long Ride Home.  Kari Dell is also a columnist for several local Montana papers and she has an easy, friendly writing style.  Kari determination and cowgirl spirit kept her writing until she finally saw her book published.  We caught up to Kari Dell on a cold Montana January morning where she shares a little about her life with horses and the inspiration for her book.

Breakaway From Cancer

Breakaway From Cancer

Breakaway From Cancer Today we are doing something a little different. Often, I get requests from someone to be on the show. They have a good book, a new piece of tack, or a good cause. There's not enough content for an entire show, but it's worthwhile information I think you's like to know. Since I'm producing a long version every other week, I thought I'd experiment with a short podcast in between. Let me know what you think. Beth … [Read More...]
