Show Notes
David, Joe and Korbin kick off the week discussing how they survived the coldest Christmas on record and remind listeners about the importance of reaching out to the board to effect real change, rather than just complaining on the internet. They then turn their attention to the great lineup of guests on today’s show, each with insights into the upcoming National Western Stock Show in Denver CO.
They first welcome Brenton Lonker of Lonker Cattle Company for a conversation about the history and the future of industry events, including details about the upcoming Stockyards Beef Festival. They then turn to Matt McFarlane and Dave Mullins from the sales management team for the Foundation Angus Sale of Denver, who share their history and all that Denver means to them. They also touch on the environment of Denver and how the experience has been enhanced for both exhibitors and visitors. Finally, they wrap up the conversation with Jaclyn Boester from the American Angus Foundation about their support of Angus endeavors in research and youth through Angus Foundation in both Denver and the Cattlemans Congress.
