We start this episode with our usual entertaining chit-chat. This time we discuss the multiple new golf course communities planned for the area, local mayor's races, Costco, the Stock Show, and FACE LASERS. Mike highlights Courtney Patton's brand new album.

Glenn Bates and Jen Howard give us an update on the really great things that the Noah Bates Foundation is getting to do to promote ATV/UTV safety.

We also discuss how the real-world effects of the recent happenings in Washington D.C. As a person in non-profit world, Jen gives us a unique and personal point of view.

In today's episode (Number 50!) we begin by chatting with Dee Kellner from local business The Merry Dog Holistic & Nutrition Store. Dee provides holistic pet food, engaging toys, nutritional supplements, and personalized health consultations that address your pet's unique needs. She also has raw goat milk for your pets - direct from her own herd. We also talk about stock shows, rodeo prayers, TikTok, listening rooms and naps. Not necessarily in that order.

OK, "extravaganza" may be a bit of an overstatement. Though it is a bit of a Christmas miracle that the episode got recorded at all. But there is a ton of Christmas (and Hanukkah) talk on this episode. We also talk heifers (of course) and the general chaos of the season. Mike highlights his recently departed friend and icon of Texas Music, Tommy Alverson. Talk to y'all soon.
