00:01:08.370 --> 00:01:09.703
Why would I want to do that?
00:01:09.703 --> 00:01:10.587

So why not?
00:01:28.831 --> 00:01:29.031
You know.
00:01:29.031 --> 00:01:29.653
So you live out in cave creek.
00:01:29.653 --> 00:01:30.277
I do cave creek it's beautiful.
00:01:30.296 --> 00:01:31.540
Yeah, that's where I grew up my entire life.
00:01:31.540 --> 00:01:34.969
Yep, out there 50, 53 years, I think.
00:01:34.969 --> 00:01:35.893
Yeah, 53 years.
00:01:35.893 --> 00:01:40.483
I grew up in the town at the behind the buffalo chip, where the bull riding is.
00:01:40.483 --> 00:01:49.570
Well, the former buffalo chip, the new one is, uh, wasn't my place, but I grew up out there, yeah, my entire life, yep did you ever ride the bulls there?
00:01:49.831 --> 00:01:50.816
no, no, hell.
00:01:50.816 --> 00:01:55.927
No, I'm not your cup of tea bull riders are uh, they're crazy.
00:01:56.248 --> 00:01:57.590
Yeah, they're crazy guys, they're.
00:01:57.590 --> 00:02:01.632
They're short little guys and they, you know, the shorter the better they're crazy guys.
00:02:01.632 --> 00:02:02.677
No, that's wasn't for me.
00:02:02.677 --> 00:02:06.007
Team roping was what I did, yeah it seems painful when you watch them.
00:02:06.067 --> 00:02:07.231
Oh, it's insane.
00:02:07.231 --> 00:02:08.770
It's got to be hard on your body.
00:02:08.790 --> 00:02:09.580
It's absolutely insane.
00:02:09.580 --> 00:02:10.567
Those guys.
00:02:10.567 --> 00:02:12.617
They're crazy, they really are crazy, yeah.
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:14.086
Well, the ones that ride the real bulls.
00:02:19.209 --> 00:02:20.030
I always like.
00:02:20.050 --> 00:02:26.201
To watch the women who think they're so sexy right, yeah well, I've never been on a mechanical bowl.
00:02:26.201 --> 00:02:37.822
We're gonna have to go up there, so maybe not that bowl up there so maybe I won't talk about the mechanical I did go on the mechanical bowl at buffalo chips and someone took a video.
00:02:37.822 --> 00:02:41.171
It was not sexy, it was so unattractive.
00:02:41.171 --> 00:02:44.626
Yeah, I was like I'm never doing that again plus those, those bowls up there.
00:02:44.646 --> 00:02:49.009
They're not rank bulls, they're just like half pet, half wild.
00:02:49.009 --> 00:02:52.366
They're not really rank bulls, they're just kind of whatever.
00:02:52.366 --> 00:02:53.270
So it's just a show.
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.010
So there's like there's levels to bulls oh my God, it's insane.
00:02:57.010 --> 00:02:58.241
There's levels to bulls.
00:02:58.562 --> 00:03:06.173
Yeah, the bulls at the NFR are the anifar, are insane, like they live and eat better than people.
00:03:06.173 --> 00:03:13.242
Oh wow, oh yeah, they are cared for.
00:03:13.242 --> 00:03:15.067
Like you wouldn't believe.
00:03:15.067 --> 00:03:17.510
They graze on just the plush filet mignon of alfalfa.
00:03:17.531 --> 00:03:17.850
Oh yeah.
00:03:17.871 --> 00:03:18.733
It's crazy man.
00:03:18.733 --> 00:03:19.574
That's funny.
00:03:19.574 --> 00:03:22.649
Yeah, peta's up there and they protest the anifar every year.
00:03:22.649 --> 00:03:28.532
But these bulls, they are massaged, they are taken care of, they're washed, they're cleaned, they're just.
00:03:28.532 --> 00:03:32.849
Pampered I mean these bulls are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:03:32.849 --> 00:03:39.387
These stock contractors bring them in and they you know the cowboys know them, these pros, they know them and they see them all year long.
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:46.828
But it's 10 rounds of insane madness with these bulls up there.
00:03:46.867 --> 00:03:48.758
It'd be kind of fun to come back as one of those bulls in the next life.
00:03:48.758 --> 00:03:51.788
You know, just getting pampered every day.
00:03:51.788 --> 00:03:52.189
Oh yeah.
00:03:52.441 --> 00:03:53.544
And then just being a.
00:03:54.007 --> 00:03:55.925
That's all you do Going after the riders?
00:03:55.925 --> 00:04:00.701
Yeah, so this is going to sound like a dumb question, but I'm blonde, so Are there female bull riders?
00:04:00.722 --> 00:04:05.752
There's got to be right, I wouldn't say at the NFR, at that level.
00:04:05.752 --> 00:04:10.425
No, I don't, I've never seen one.
00:04:10.425 --> 00:04:12.269
No, huh, interesting.
00:04:12.269 --> 00:04:14.734
Team Ropen, yes, barrels, yes.
00:04:17.742 --> 00:04:21.579
I was going to say, because they care more about looking sexy when they're riding the bulls versus actually riding on the bulls, that's for sure.
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:23.586
Plus, there's a dress code with all that too.
00:04:28.379 --> 00:04:30.646
The PRCA's a dress code with all that too, the prca, because I was going to say if they're female bull riders, I bet they're in demand from the men.
00:04:30.591 --> 00:04:31.125
They know how to ride a bull.
00:04:31.125 --> 00:04:33.374
Good, you know they're in demand, but not riding in the arena.
00:04:33.374 --> 00:04:34.214
Yeah, right.
00:04:34.235 --> 00:04:35.495
So that's funny.
00:04:35.495 --> 00:04:37.276
What's the dating scene like in cave creek?
00:04:37.276 --> 00:04:37.757
How's it?
00:04:37.757 --> 00:04:38.478
How's it going?
00:04:38.517 --> 00:04:38.757
for you.
00:04:38.757 --> 00:04:44.571
It's uh, um, who knows man, I I know a lot of people up there.
00:04:44.571 --> 00:04:46.980
I grew up up there my entire life, so I don't.
00:04:46.980 --> 00:04:52.673
I mean, I don't know everybody, and it's just, uh, it's okay up there.
00:04:52.673 --> 00:04:56.228
Um, I'm not a local like the locals.
00:04:56.228 --> 00:04:58.538
Are they go there all every weekend?
00:04:58.538 --> 00:05:03.440
Like I don't go there every weekend, maybe, maybe twice a month, what?
00:05:03.461 --> 00:05:04.742
are the places Harold's?
00:05:04.742 --> 00:05:06.425
Harold's is good.
00:05:06.425 --> 00:05:07.105
Yeah, that's where.
00:05:07.266 --> 00:05:07.826
I met Jess.
00:05:07.887 --> 00:05:09.048
Yep, yep, that's where I met her.
00:05:09.048 --> 00:05:13.314
He started dancing with one of my friends and I was like I got to get you on the podcast.
00:05:13.314 --> 00:05:15.882
This guy Country dance.
00:05:15.922 --> 00:05:16.786
So why, wasn't that a match.
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:19.307
She's married still.
00:05:19.980 --> 00:05:22.670
She's married and yeah.
00:05:23.661 --> 00:05:24.464
We'll leave it at that.
00:05:27.125 --> 00:05:28.019
We'll just leave it at that.
00:05:28.019 --> 00:05:32.110
But the dating scene up there is I don't know.
00:05:32.110 --> 00:05:37.451
I have to be careful with that because I know a lot of people up there.
00:05:37.451 --> 00:05:46.752
If I meet someone I don't know if I want to introduce them to all that, and everybody knows everybody and whatever word travels, you know.
00:05:46.791 --> 00:05:49.749
so We've run into that a little bit in the small towns in northern.
00:05:49.749 --> 00:05:50.149
Arizona.
00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:59.127
I feel like it's very common when we go to the cabin and we go out, and in Prescott it's the same thing, everybody knows everybody and people talk and they know when.
00:05:59.610 --> 00:06:05.848
When you're up from the valley you know, they know it's a whole deal up there, for sure, yeah.
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:10.846
My sister and I were matching glitter tops one time in Prescott, and now we're forever known as the glitter gals.
00:06:10.846 --> 00:06:17.084
That's so funny.
00:06:17.084 --> 00:06:18.588
So you got roping.
00:06:21.161 --> 00:06:38.973
Excuse me, team roping riding, uh, some lived on a ranch for a while but most you know high school football and all that uh roping and just living kind of country life, old school country and just living up there and in the desert and whatnot.
00:06:38.973 --> 00:06:40.939
Of course we went to all the big hair band concerts.
00:06:40.939 --> 00:06:44.954
You know motley crew and oz and Poison and all those guys.
00:06:44.954 --> 00:06:45.055
Ozzy.
00:06:45.156 --> 00:06:47.264
Osbourne All the big hair.
00:06:47.264 --> 00:06:50.547
Yeah, do you find that women are?
00:06:50.547 --> 00:06:53.132
Do they take to your country lifestyle?
00:06:55.682 --> 00:06:56.285
I don't really.
00:06:56.285 --> 00:07:00.754
I live a country lifestyle like old school and kind of you know.
00:07:00.754 --> 00:07:04.360
I get dirty and I hunt and fish and do all that stuff.
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:16.009
But I don't rope anymore, I don't own horses anymore because it got to be too expensive for one thing and I was wasn't winning any money and getting whiskey bent hell bound, you know you don't win any money.
00:07:16.029 --> 00:07:18.963
so, but uh, I would say more.
00:07:18.963 --> 00:07:39.528
Um, I kind of got away from wearing the hat for a little while, a few years, and I kind of started going back to who I you know where I came from, where I was raised and horses and riding and all that, and so it's gotten more popular, I would say.
00:07:39.850 --> 00:07:39.971
Yeah.
00:07:40.379 --> 00:07:42.668
The country music.
00:07:42.827 --> 00:07:43.471
Oh absolutely.
00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:44.718
The country lifestyle the whole.
00:07:44.718 --> 00:07:45.550
It's kind of trendy right now, kind of trendy whatever you want, the Yellowstone, oh, absolutely, the country lifestyle the whole.
00:07:45.661 --> 00:07:46.819
It's kind of trendy right now.
00:07:46.819 --> 00:07:48.927
Kind of trendy, whatever you want, especially after Yellowstone.
00:07:48.968 --> 00:07:56.442
Yes, yeah, that you know, and there's a lot of drugstore cowboys out there that just wear the.
00:07:56.442 --> 00:07:59.891
I'm going to buy me a hat because I got to look pretty cool.
00:08:00.802 --> 00:08:04.903
Well, with the girls too, they come with the little short shorts and the cowboy boots, that's okay.
00:08:04.923 --> 00:08:08.230
Oh Well, with the girls too, they come with the little short shorts and the cowboy boots.
00:08:08.230 --> 00:08:11.175
Oh, that's okay, we don't care, we're talking about double standards.
00:08:11.175 --> 00:08:11.497
Well, sure.
00:08:12.420 --> 00:08:14.262
It's okay for the girls to do it.
00:08:14.283 --> 00:08:14.803
That's funny.
00:08:14.803 --> 00:08:22.814
Some of them are, but you know, when you meet someone that's just dressing up for that and you meet a cowgirl that really rides and she's you know.
00:08:23.514 --> 00:08:31.017
Back in the day they wore jeans that were called rockies and they had no pockets on the back and they wore them tight and it was, it was tight and it was hot, you know.
00:08:31.017 --> 00:08:42.587
But nowadays they just wear the cutoff shorts and their boots and their hat and their little tank top and they want to dance around and they learn how to line dance on youtube and all that shit but yeah, yeah, it's funny I was.
00:08:42.748 --> 00:09:06.240
I was with some friends from so my sister lives in in texas and dallas so I have friends a lot of friends from texas and a group of friends from el paso, and we were out one night and, um, we saw this table of people sitting, you know, across the restaurant, sort of in the back of the restaurant, and one of the guys in the group was looking back there and he looked really disturbed and we're like what is going on?
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.288
He's like he's not a real cowboy drugstore he's.
00:09:09.870 --> 00:09:11.821
He's wearing his cowboy hat inside.
00:09:11.821 --> 00:09:16.990
A real cowboy would never do that how many they're all judging you?
00:09:16.990 --> 00:09:22.384
Right, well, maybe yeah but it's like I mean, I guess, but that's an old school thing there.
00:09:22.384 --> 00:09:23.426
Yeah, texas Cowboy.
00:09:23.446 --> 00:09:25.629
You sit down to dinner, yep Supper.
00:09:25.669 --> 00:09:28.673
You take your hat off and you eat you know that's.
00:09:28.693 --> 00:09:29.735
yeah, that's old school there.
00:09:30.100 --> 00:09:31.104
Yeah so that's cool.
00:09:31.125 --> 00:09:31.626
Yeah, right on.
00:09:31.940 --> 00:09:46.940
I can just imagine what people say about me and my sister in Prescott when we show up in our sheen cowgirl hat, our sheen cowboy.
00:09:46.980 --> 00:09:48.522
They know you're a tourist for sure.
00:09:48.522 --> 00:09:50.004
So what kind of girl do you go for?
00:09:50.004 --> 00:09:51.706
Do you typically go for the country girl as well?
00:09:51.706 --> 00:09:52.366
Let's see, I like blondes.
00:09:52.366 --> 00:09:55.669
Of course I was married to a brunette, which that's okay.
00:09:55.669 --> 00:09:57.533
She's a Jess, you're a brunette.
00:09:57.533 --> 00:09:58.813
Look at you, beautiful smile.
00:09:58.813 --> 00:10:00.635
My ex-wife, beautiful smile.
00:10:00.635 --> 00:10:05.711
She had her shit together and she's a great mother and she's you know.
00:10:05.711 --> 00:10:07.581
But mostly I'm attracted to blondes.
00:10:07.581 --> 00:10:15.133
But uh, for me it's about um, are you gonna show up if I talk?
00:10:15.133 --> 00:10:17.783
We're gonna talk, we're gonna chat, we're gonna dance whatever.
00:10:17.783 --> 00:10:29.735
Uh, is this just beer talk, or I mean, I don't go through that whole rundown, but most of the time it's just beer talk and dance and da-da-da, da-da-da, we make out whatever and da-da-da.
00:10:29.735 --> 00:10:30.881
Okay, we'll see.
00:10:30.881 --> 00:10:31.885
If you call me next week.
00:10:31.885 --> 00:10:32.849
You take my number.
00:10:32.849 --> 00:10:35.604
I'm not taking your number.
00:10:35.604 --> 00:10:37.128
That's just me lately, do?
00:10:37.149 --> 00:10:37.990
you always write your number.
00:10:37.990 --> 00:10:43.066
So when we met at Harold's and I was like you need to come on the podcast.
00:10:43.125 --> 00:10:43.426
Oh yeah.
00:10:43.807 --> 00:10:45.129
You wrote your number down.
00:10:45.129 --> 00:10:47.250
You wrote your name and your number down on a napkin.
00:10:47.331 --> 00:10:47.551
Right.
00:10:47.672 --> 00:10:50.434
And I think that is a great move.
00:10:50.455 --> 00:10:50.754
I love that.
00:10:50.774 --> 00:10:55.475
Is that your move Is that, when you're giving a woman your number, do you always write it?
00:10:55.657 --> 00:11:05.052
on a napkin, not always, but lately, the past, maybe five women I've met, yeah, Okay, yeah, I.
00:11:05.052 --> 00:11:05.634
Yeah.
00:11:05.693 --> 00:11:06.534
I like that move there's.
00:11:06.534 --> 00:11:11.028
There's been one other guy in my past experiences.
00:11:11.028 --> 00:11:15.889
Realm of excursions yes, yes, that wrote his number on a napkin.
00:11:15.889 --> 00:11:19.139
You know it's memorable it is, and it's cute, it's so cute.
00:11:19.139 --> 00:11:21.865
And I think I still have his numbers, I still talk to him.
00:11:21.865 --> 00:11:27.446
Sometimes he does not, he doesn't live here, but I think it's a I think it's a good move.
00:11:27.466 --> 00:11:28.528
Yeah, no, I don't know.
00:11:28.528 --> 00:11:29.730
I think it's for me.
00:11:29.730 --> 00:11:31.283
I've kind of thought about it and done it.
00:11:31.283 --> 00:11:35.052
It's more personal, I don't know.
00:11:35.052 --> 00:11:42.528
I just I would rather show effort and show interest, like in that, in that little instant just writing it down.
00:11:42.528 --> 00:11:45.053
And I got to find a napkin, I got to find a pen where.
00:11:45.053 --> 00:11:47.206
But it's cool, I love doing that stuff, I love doing.
00:11:47.226 --> 00:11:48.149
It shows a little effort.
00:11:48.149 --> 00:11:53.331
If you have to go find a napkin and find a pen, yeah, that shows that you are willing to go the extra mile.
00:11:53.331 --> 00:11:55.765
Yes, instead of just whipping out your phone, correct?
00:11:55.806 --> 00:11:59.241
yeah, it's cute, yeah because if he's gonna whip out, his phone.
00:11:59.241 --> 00:12:10.806
Guess what else he's gonna all right, I'll drink to that lindsey so you were married, you have a daughter, and why did that?
00:12:10.806 --> 00:12:11.749
Marriage not work out?
00:12:11.749 --> 00:12:12.633
Was she the control she's?
00:12:12.633 --> 00:12:18.288
11, my daughter's 11, going on 30 uh yeah, I grew up so quick, then I'll be locking her up soon.
00:12:18.749 --> 00:12:24.708
I bought several more guns so they don't got to worry about me, they got to worry about her mother.
00:12:24.708 --> 00:12:33.990
I'll just shoot them, her mother, her mother will mind, fuck them like big time she will.
00:12:33.990 --> 00:12:35.835
She will be the one.
00:12:35.835 --> 00:12:39.948
Okay, I'm gonna meet your parents, write your address down.
00:12:39.948 --> 00:12:44.047
You're taking my daughter where and what restaurant and you'll be paying.
00:12:44.047 --> 00:12:46.943
That's her, which is good, good that is good somebody.
00:12:47.144 --> 00:12:49.770
Somebody has no her mother is all about that, that, that, that.
00:12:49.770 --> 00:12:50.662
That that's fine.
00:12:50.662 --> 00:12:53.529
Like I said, I'll just shoot them, yeah, anyway.
00:12:53.529 --> 00:13:04.847
No, uh, but yeah, I was married for uh about three years and uh, she was just a, like I said, she is a great mother, uh, to our daughter.
00:13:04.847 --> 00:13:11.498
She uh has a great career, great life, she does well, she has zero debt.
00:13:11.498 --> 00:13:15.030
She's, you know, she's no drugs and no smoking.
00:13:15.030 --> 00:13:16.573
No, she drinks wine.
00:13:16.653 --> 00:13:38.067
She's a wine woman, which I like wine, uh, but she is just a uh, far left that, if that says anything uh, that whole mindset, plus I believe that at some point she was mentally and verbally abused by her stepdad, is what I believe.
00:13:38.894 --> 00:13:40.048
So she carries some of that trauma.
00:13:40.048 --> 00:13:41.809
She's a huge, that's tough.
00:13:41.889 --> 00:13:43.717
He was a huge control freak.
00:13:44.692 --> 00:13:45.655
That can mess you up.
00:13:46.311 --> 00:13:53.081
Full German, and he controlled her every move, basically.
00:13:53.230 --> 00:13:54.168
Yeah, that's tough.
00:13:55.075 --> 00:14:10.220
You know, elementary school and high school and college and they moved from a town, sunnyvale in California, up near NorCal or Sunnyvale, and so that you know they left whatever.
00:14:10.220 --> 00:14:17.458
That's their choice, whatever Politics was never a thing for me when I married her, or whatever, but her mindset is kind of like that.
00:14:17.458 --> 00:14:24.455
But I believe that she was controlled and manipulated by him because he controlled her every move.
00:14:24.649 --> 00:14:27.379
That's unfortunate and that's got to affect you moving forward.
