A young man growing up in the shadow of the Swiss Alps took his cowboy dreams
to the Canadian west and you'll hear a couple of his amazing adventures this week,
along with a horse trainer who describes what went wrong when the owner of a horse
he was training showed up. From Cattle economics to livestock politics, the Rangeland
News has some vital information. How to know when you're using too much, or not
enough pressure with your horse and a playlist of beautiful music of the west.
Hugh's guest this week is Joe Ribary.
