Cowboys not Eggheads
I visit with guests about topics like loyalty, honesty, authenticity, courage, integrity and resilience.
I come from a cowboy raised and egghead educated background. I’ve saddled and rode a horse, been on multiple cattle drives, fed cattle in 40 below temperatures, worked cattle in a corral, put up hay in 100 degree temperatures, fixed fence …. you name it … I attended high school at a prestigious private school. I got a College degree. I spent 31 years as a national politic operative, owned my own business and spent 13 years as a police officer.
My interesting life has lead me to the conclusion that the world is made up of cowboys and eggheads. I believe that we should have a few more cowboys than eggheads. Get ready, because you’re about to be pulled into the story of my life……

There is Opportunity Everywhere - with Special Guest Roger Johnson
Loyal listener since the inception of Cowboys Not Eggheads, Roger Johnson is the Founder and CEO of Badlands Tank Lines.
We explore the career path that Roger took using the power of networking in his younger years. Roger discusses identifying successful people as mentors and the power of observation and learning from successful business leaders. Working for various employers as an ethanol and oil trader he identified a need for his employer's customers that wasn't being addressed.
He used all these lessons to start a fast growing transportation company.
Roger talks about the challenges he faced and the personal risks he took to make sure his company and its employees are taken care of first.
Ultimately we learn that opportunity is everywhere if we take the time to find it.
