In this heartfelt episode of the Arizona Cowboy Poets Gathering podcast, host Jim Buchanan sits down with ranching couple Gail and Amy Steiger of Spider Ranch. Together, they share cowboy poetry, music, and stories forged from a life spent side by side on 48,000 rugged acres of Arizona forest land.
Amy recites her evocative poems like "See You at the Barn" and "Work Song," revealing the deep connection between land, labor, and love. Gail reflects on his grandfather Gail Gardner’s legacy with a rendition of the iconic “Tying Knots in the Devil’s Tail,” and the two perform a touching original duet “Written in the Key of Us,” blending poetry and song into a tribute to their shared life.
Whether you’re a cowboy poetry fan, a lover of the land, or curious about modern ranch life rooted in tradition, this episode offers an intimate look at a couple living and creating in rhythm with nature.
