Apparently taping fruit to the wall is considered fine art now because a banana taped to a wall brought over $100,000 in Florida. And later, we go over just the headlines scrawled out across the Drudge Report. (We don't read the stories.)
Today, Jason speaks with friend of the show, Clay Conry. Clay is the driving force behind WorkingCows.net and the Working Cows Podcast. Clay is a native of South Dakota, growing up on a Cow-Calf Operation outside of Belle Fourche, SD. In additon to ranching and podcasting, Clay is also a minister. Today, Clay talks about his background in both ministry and agriculture and how he combines them into making an influential podcast helping ranchers find joy in their lifestyle.
The podcast has hit a new low, well at least we hope this is the lowest point. "Perineum Sunning" is apparently a thing now, and we're just the geniuses to talk about it. Also, Brent and Landon go on the crime beat.
