Living Western
"Living Western" is a show dedicated to telling the real story of the rural American West through individual stories of amazing people who call this part of the country..."Home".
Are you curious about what life as a cowboy/cowgirl is really like?
Do you dream of someday living in the scenic landscapes of places like Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, or other places known for their Western culture?
Do you love TV shows like Yellowstone, The Cowboy Way, Ultimate Cowboy Showdown, and other western entertainment?
Would you like to know where your food really comes from and the process of how a steak makes it from a pasture to your plate?
Are you fascinated by stories of the human experience as lived in wild, remote landscapes in often harsh conditions, and how multiple generations of families have continued to find that lifestyle so rewarding?
Do you love the sport of Rodeo? Are you a fan of the sport's greatest athletes and are you curious about their real daily life?
These topics are all parts of the authentic cowboy life and the goal of the Living Western Podcast is to share this life with all of you who might live in a completely different world and are not able to experience life as a cowboy yourself.
If you are already a resident of our rural American West, and perhaps you are born & bred into the lifestyle of the working ranch cowboy, you too will enjoy this show and the guests who will share their stories with us. Heck, we may even call you one day to be a guest on the show!

#3 - J.B. Zielke - Part 1 - THE LOST COWBOY
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode is an interview with J.B. Zielke, author of "The Lost Cowboy".
This fantastic conversation lasted over 3 hours, so I will split it into 3 Parts.
J.B. is known for his epic journey to ranch on every continent that has critters to herd. The climax of this epic adventure was when he found himself riding a giant reindeer while herding other reindeer in Mongolia.
J.B.'s thirst for the wild in life and his aptitude for descriptive writing are reminiscent of introspective literary works like those of Hunter S. Thompson or "Greenlights" by Matthew McConaughey, but those who love books that hearken back to the old days of the wild west and pioneer cattlemen will recognize a similarity to the revered cowboy book "We Pointed Them North".
If you are curious what life is like for herdsmen/cowboys/Americans in other places around the world, or if you just love grand adventures with harrowing tales of disasters and conflict, as well as, heartwarming moments between people who cannot speak each other's language, you will love this book!
