She had Reserve Grand Champion hog at Denver, Reserve at Houston, Grand Champion at San Angelo and Forth Worth. It’s incredible! So, I wanted to talk with Kamlynn about her recent hot streak and how she consistently does what she does.
The Oklahoma Youth Expo is an event like I’ve never seen! I went a few years ago to watch. Let alone is their grand drive the coolest thing ever, bringing kids in the arena with a limo, but the event itself is huge! OYE is the world’s largest Junior Livestock Show with more than 7,000 4-H and FFA members and more than 13,000 head of cattle, sheep, pigs, goats and ag mechanics projects. It’s amazing to see all of the livestock shown...
We’re in the midst of spring which means it’s Texas Major time. I love hearing about who’s winning what and how high the auctions go with these shows.

I was lucky enough to have winner of the Grand Champion Steer from Houston, Blaize Benson, join me on this episode. Blaize won with his Simmental steer named Woozy. So, join me ...
Records were broken this year at the 2024 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Junior shows. I was excited when Shepard Silvers, who won the Grand Champion Lamb, agreed to talk with me.

To start off, I’ve got Tyler Patterson who won the Grand Champion Steer at the Indiana State Fair and to end, Jami Hoblyn, who double holed it in the swine ring at the Nebraska State Fair.
We had great success with part one that featured two state winners from West Virginia and North Dakota. For this one I thought we’d keep it within the same state to hear from two different species winners. On today’s episode, I interview Alivia Ritzler who had the Champion Purebred Gilt and Holden LeVan who had the Champion Market Beef at the Ohio State Fair.
Welcome to a special edition of The Joe Show called the State Fair Series. First up in part 1 is with Macy Norton from North Dakota.

So grab a corndog and here we go!
I had the pleasure to chat with a couple of buddies of mine from Oklahoma. Fletcher and Dax Inman are two brothers that are following in their parents footsteps in terms of making a name for themselves in the show pig industry. We dug a little into their the Holy Smoke sale and even more importantly, turtle racing. These guys are so fun and I look forward to seeing them soon.
When I was watching our Iowa State Fair cattle show, I was intrigued by the judge. I soon realized that judge has two daughters who have made a name for themselves as well. Karlee and Kinlee Rathmann of Texas work very hard for every banner they have. I sat down with them to talk about their secrets to success.
On today’s show, I interviewed a sibling trio that is known in the show pig and cattle world. Breckyn, Brenhem and Berwick Bloomberg talked with me about their family and where their show travels have taken them so far. These guys are the real deal, bringing home banners about everywhere they go and they still have a huge career of showing ahead of them.
My guests on today’s show are two brothers from Iowa, Jackson and Charlie Schulte. Many might know the Schulte boys from their big wins on the national dairy cattle scene, but I know them best from playing basketball together and through 4H. On this episode, Jackson and Charlie share about their showing experience and insights into the dairy industry. Check them out on tiktok @schultebrosdairy.
At the 2023 Exposition in Des Moines, Amanda Miklaszewski from Wisconsin showed the Champion Crossbred Gilt and Bradshaw Bunt from Oklahoma showed the Champion Crossbred Barrow. They both sat down with me after Expo to talk about their big wins.

Hayden has won pretty much every lamb and goat Texas major and show across the country he could show at. On today’s podcast, we’ll talk about his show career and what sets him a part from the pack.
Thirteen-year-old, Brayden Bowers of Wisconsin is very connected in the show pig and show lamb industry. Learn more about Brayden, how he balances both species on a winning level and even an insight into his mom's cooking :).
