Speaker 1: Talking about horses. Nobody knows more about him. I don't
0:02
Speaker 1: think than Whyatt he was raised on him, and whyet
0:05
Speaker 1: i' miss now shows horses. He texts them all over
0:09
Speaker 1: the country. I know Boat Needle has already invested many
0:13
Speaker 1: many others, and in fact Bo's horse I believe one recently.
0:17
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. So both are already collected, I should
0:20
Speaker 1: say on this investment. And when Wyatt was a little kid,
0:24
Speaker 1: his late father Don, who we know very well, this
0:28
Speaker 1: was his dream. He thought one day that they can
0:30
Speaker 1: show horses all over the country and all over the
0:33
Speaker 1: world and make money doing it. And Don, of course
0:36
Speaker 1: passed away before the dream was realized. But it's happening,
0:41
Speaker 1: and it's happening because of the hard work of his
0:43
Speaker 1: little boy who's now a big BOYT Wyatt, Welcome back
0:47
Speaker 1: to sitting friends of the morning.
0:48
Speaker 2: Brother Hawaii, good morning, Thank you for having me back.
0:51
Speaker 1: Tell me about these before you get the conversation going.
0:56
Speaker 1: My business guy John Tarrett did this story this morning.
0:58
Speaker 1: I thought he was kidding, but he wasn't. What is
1:01
Speaker 1: going on with these screw worms? You guys nervous about
1:04
Speaker 1: that in Texas?
1:05
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what it's done more than anything
1:07
Speaker 2: is all these events we have, these roping events and
1:10
Speaker 2: futurities for young horses and rodeos and everything, they require
1:14
Speaker 2: cattle because you have to have something to rope, and
1:17
Speaker 2: the best cattle all these years that we rope came
1:20
Speaker 2: from Mexico. They were Mexican Corriente cattle native to Mexico. Well,
1:27
Speaker 2: when this screw worm outbreak came about a couple of
1:30
Speaker 2: years ago, now they shut the border down to all
1:34
Speaker 2: it's all livestock, so no, no cattle can cross. So
1:38
Speaker 2: what it's done more than anything is it's driven the
1:41
Speaker 2: price of cattle that are native to the States up astronomically.
1:47
Speaker 2: So people buying cattle and steers for all these big events,
1:51
Speaker 2: they're having to give double the money and what they
1:53
Speaker 2: had to give a few years ago. You know, there's
1:57
Speaker 2: a lot of guys down there on the border who
2:00
Speaker 2: they crossed cattle as a primary source of income. It's
2:03
Speaker 2: a it's a huge, huge market. You know. One of
2:06
Speaker 2: a good friend of mine is Martin Wall. He actually
2:11
Speaker 2: when Trump, when Trump went down during his first term
2:14
Speaker 2: and did like that YouTube documentary like the Border Wars,
2:19
Speaker 2: he interviewed, Uh, he didn't hit somebody interview my great
2:22
Speaker 2: friend Martin Wall and Martin talked about all the all
2:27
Speaker 2: the issues that were going on with all the illegals
2:29
Speaker 2: crossing and then the screwworm outbreak and everything else, and
2:32
Speaker 2: how it affected his business and his ranch. And you know, Martine,
2:36
Speaker 2: he was doing so well. He owns an Imrish ranch horse.
2:40
Speaker 2: So it's a huge market for a lot of people,
2:42
Speaker 2: and it's affecting the industry here with cattle greatly.
2:46
Speaker 1: Wow, how about that? See it's interesting that they wouldn't
2:50
Speaker 1: let the cattle a cross, but the terrorists are okay, Yeah.
2:54
Speaker 2: To let people across the.
2:55
Speaker 1: Bombs right, rape based and motors and terrorists you can come,
2:59
Speaker 1: but not the cattle. So really does make a difference
3:01
Speaker 1: down there. So again we we I just mentioned the
3:04
Speaker 1: fact that Bodedle has already collected on his investment. I
3:07
Speaker 1: put the word out there to a bunch of other folks,
3:09
Speaker 1: including Vinni Viola, who owns a horse Callden Temple that
3:12
Speaker 1: won the Kentucky Derby. And I know this thing is
3:15
Speaker 1: kind of just getting started, been a couple of years, wyat,
3:18
Speaker 1: but it hasn't really hit the popular outy. You think
3:20
Speaker 1: it's going to hit So where are you exactly what
3:24
Speaker 1: stage are you in this show horse field.
3:28
Speaker 2: Well, it's building so much, you know, like it hasn't
3:30
Speaker 2: hit popularity yet just because you know, I think Yellowstone
3:34
Speaker 2: helped it a lot. But they're starting to pay out
3:37
Speaker 2: big money. So like, for example, the horse that won
3:40
Speaker 2: the Preakness, right, he wins one point two million dollars. Well,
3:43
Speaker 2: we got a big event coming up here called the
3:46
Speaker 2: Old West Horse Show in tiber City, Utah, and that's
3:51
Speaker 2: going to pay out one point seven million dollars wow
3:54
Speaker 2: for the winner. So you'll have a you can have
3:57
Speaker 2: a prekiss horse you know that runs in the Preakness
4:00
Speaker 2: and wins it and you win one point two million.
4:02
Speaker 2: Or you can have get a horse that's that's a
4:05
Speaker 2: real force in the Western performance horse industry, and you
4:07
Speaker 2: can win one point seven millions and it won't you know,
4:11
Speaker 2: it won't cost you probably nearly as much to get
4:14
Speaker 2: into it. The I don't know if you saw or not,
4:17
Speaker 2: but a few weeks ago, I guess been about a
4:19
Speaker 2: little over a month ago. Now, one of Bob Baffort,
4:22
Speaker 2: the Great Bob Baffort, legendary thoroughbred horse trainers, one of
4:26
Speaker 2: his guys gave ten and a half million dollars for
4:29
Speaker 2: a two year old at the big sale down there,
4:34
Speaker 2: the Thoroughbred horse. So I mean, you know, that horse
4:36
Speaker 2: could win the Derby, the Preakness, and the Bellmont, win
4:39
Speaker 2: the Triple Crown, and he wouldn't win enough to cover
4:42
Speaker 2: what he costs. So I think the economics of what
4:46
Speaker 2: we're doing is really cool. And again, I mean the
4:49
Speaker 2: Western way of life to some people is great. I mean,
4:51
Speaker 2: you saw how Yellowstone took off, so there's a lot
4:54
Speaker 2: of upsides, and I think the trajectory is just just
4:57
Speaker 2: on its way.
4:58
Speaker 1: Up because he Yellowstone. Look. I got into it a
5:01
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. My wife Danielle, my beautiful wife,
5:04
Speaker 1: and I we watched. We loved it, you know, because
5:06
Speaker 1: I liked the daughter a lot. I like cause she's
5:07
Speaker 1: funny and she's tough. She'll kick anybody's ass. But like
5:11
Speaker 1: I told you last time you were on, my interest
5:14
Speaker 1: pretty much went away when Kevin Kostner was off the show.
5:18
Speaker 1: I know it's still on, I guess, and it still
5:20
Speaker 1: has decent viewership, but it can't be the same since
5:22
Speaker 1: Kevin left. So is it still that whole Western culture
5:26
Speaker 1: that whole cowboy thing. Is it still popular or did
5:29
Speaker 1: it lose some of it with the last couple of years.
5:32
Speaker 2: I think the Yellowstone Show lost viewership obviously, and then
5:36
Speaker 2: they ended it of course last year. But the people
5:40
Speaker 2: that got in as a result of Yellowstone, they got
5:42
Speaker 2: into the horses and the western culture and all that stuff,
5:44
Speaker 2: and then they realized there was something here. So, you know,
5:48
Speaker 2: just because just as Kevin Costner wasn't on anymore, he
5:51
Speaker 2: might have been what got him in in that show.
5:53
Speaker 2: But once they got here and realized all the opportunities
5:56
Speaker 2: and the way of life and how cool it can
5:59
Speaker 2: be to be a part of it. I mean there's
6:01
Speaker 2: people who who stayed, you know. I mean, look a
6:03
Speaker 2: look at both Bo's in now. His horse is doing great.
6:07
Speaker 2: I have another guy that came from thoroughbred horse racing.
6:10
Speaker 2: He has a horse, he's doing great. You know, just
6:14
Speaker 2: keep small walks of life coming in and loving it
6:17
Speaker 2: and enjoying it and watching it take off. So I mean,
6:20
Speaker 2: you know, Taylor shared in yellow Yellowstone helped tremendously because
6:25
Speaker 2: he was able to get have a really far reach
6:27
Speaker 2: and telling people in. But yeah, I mean, once people
6:30
Speaker 2: are in, they've it's fun and they stay in and
6:32
Speaker 2: really enjoy it.
6:33
Speaker 1: I love it, So I'm interested. You know, you, as
6:35
Speaker 1: a little boy had both, right, I mean your dad
6:38
Speaker 1: had the cowboy hat, had the gun, what you did
6:41
Speaker 1: pull on me more than once. He had the whole
6:44
Speaker 1: thing going on. But you also spent time in New
6:46
Speaker 1: York City, right, You had a house in Westport, Connecticut.
6:49
Speaker 1: You had the apartment in Central Park. So he was
6:52
Speaker 1: kind of both, right. He was kind of like a
6:54
Speaker 1: cowboy in New York City. And I know you've taken
6:57
Speaker 1: on this life and you love it and your mom,
7:00
Speaker 1: you Joe, I speak to every now and then. She's
7:01
Speaker 1: so proud of you. But is there a part of
7:03
Speaker 1: you Wyatt that wants to be New York City or
7:07
Speaker 1: you one thousand percent contempt with the cowboy lifestyle?
7:12
Speaker 2: Well, I think that's what makes my situation so new
7:15
Speaker 2: Yeak so unique, is I was born in New York Hospital,
7:18
Speaker 2: so I mean part of me I was raised there
7:21
Speaker 2: my whole life. Obviously, my dad was on this very
7:24
Speaker 2: station we're talking on right now for years, and you know, so,
7:28
Speaker 2: I mean I am a huge part of me's New
7:30
Speaker 2: York And I mean I don't feel like if I
7:32
Speaker 2: had any if I didn't have any New York left
7:34
Speaker 2: in me, I'd be able to, you know, have a
7:36
Speaker 2: good conversation with you a couple of weeks ago or now.
7:38
Speaker 2: So I always want to keep those roots and be
7:41
Speaker 2: connected to those people. And you know, it was, it
7:43
Speaker 2: was such a wonderful childhood. And obviously you know my
7:47
Speaker 2: dad did it for years and you know, gave you
7:50
Speaker 2: the roadmap for what you're doing.
7:53
Speaker 1: No, he did. Listen, I give you a father a
7:55
Speaker 1: whole bunch of credit. Despite what Rob baldertn others tell
7:57
Speaker 1: your mother. Okay, although I said these guys, I'm always
8:01
Speaker 1: saying the person that had the most influence on me,
8:05
Speaker 1: and it's not even close. Look, I was around Mike
8:08
Speaker 1: and the Mad Dog, and I even worked with Howard
8:10
Speaker 1: Stern a little bit and other great people, not even close.
8:13
Speaker 1: Your father, far and away had the biggest influence on me.
8:17
Speaker 1: And I'm happy to say that. But I always said,
8:20
Speaker 1: is about your dad. So you're a New York guy.
8:22
Speaker 1: But the one thing about your father was, for some reason,
8:24
Speaker 1: he never liked the New York teams. Never. Never. He
8:27
Speaker 1: wasn't really a jet band, He wasn't really a Giant band.
8:29
Speaker 1: He wasn't really a meta a Yankee fan. He did
8:32
Speaker 1: boast about partying with the Islanders once with the Stanley Cup.
8:35
Speaker 1: But he was funny because whoever won that day, that
8:38
Speaker 1: was who your father liked. Like he liked the Patriots
8:39
Speaker 1: when they're winning Super Bowls. He liked the Lakers when
8:42
Speaker 1: they were winning championships, right right, Well.
8:45
Speaker 2: Look, he liked a winner, right. Everybody likes the winner, right,
8:48
Speaker 2: like Ricky Bobby and Talladega Nite says, you got to
8:51
Speaker 2: win to get.
8:51
Speaker 1: Lot, that's right.
8:53
Speaker 2: So here's the deal. Yes, we were New England Patriots fans,
8:55
Speaker 2: and they happened to have won six Super Bowls in
8:58
Speaker 2: the time we were fair, right, But he was a
9:01
Speaker 2: fan when they had Drew Bledstone limping out there going
9:05
Speaker 2: five and eleven.
9:06
Speaker 1: Good job.
9:07
Speaker 2: And then I was a fan when we were losing
9:10
Speaker 2: every game with Mac Jones. Yeah really, oh yeah, he
9:14
Speaker 2: stuck with me. I love the Patriots. You know, I
9:17
Speaker 2: think our coach needs to calm down and quit booking
9:20
Speaker 2: cruises with women who are seven more.
9:22
Speaker 1: Hold on a second, right, let me remind you that
9:25
Speaker 1: the coach that won you US six super Bowls, he's
9:28
Speaker 1: banging a twenty three year old Wyan.
9:30
Speaker 2: Well yeah, yeah, I can't defend that very much, but hey,
9:36
Speaker 2: he's a winner and he likes winners. He looks past.
9:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, no question. It's funny because Mike Rabel
9:44
Speaker 1: is getting such hell in Bowson. But Belichick because he
9:46
Speaker 1: won six Super Bowls with this girlfriend who's not only
9:49
Speaker 1: young but not very bright, you can do what he wants.
9:52
Speaker 1: Coaches at North Carolina. It's all good. So you still
9:56
Speaker 1: follow all those sports teams, even though you spend a
9:59
Speaker 1: lot of your days and knights with the horses on
10:01
Speaker 1: the stable. All that, you're still a pretty rabbit sports fan.
10:04
Speaker 2: I am. I enjoyed. I enjoy the Patriots. I follow
10:07
Speaker 2: him every year. Obviously watched the Super Bowl. I still
10:09
Speaker 2: follow the New York teams. They have so much, so
10:11
Speaker 2: many connections. Uh you know, I mean the Jets are
10:14
Speaker 2: really hard to follow. I don't think they haven't won
10:16
Speaker 2: anything since Nameth, and right, I think Nameth was older
10:19
Speaker 2: than my dad, which I didn't even know if that
10:21
Speaker 2: was possible. You know, my dad used to say he's
10:23
Speaker 2: so old he watched Moses part to see.
10:25
Speaker 1: Remember he used to say that.
10:26
Speaker 2: Yet but yeah, you know, I like the Giants. I
10:29
Speaker 2: liked that they got Harbor now. And uh, I'm a
10:32
Speaker 2: big fan of Jackson Dart.
10:33
Speaker 1: I like his Yeah he's cool. Yeah, he's cool. Yeah. Yeah,
10:36
Speaker 1: he's doing some cowboys stuff too. Just you know, he's
10:38
Speaker 1: got that Mississippi look going for him. What do you if?
10:41
Speaker 1: I I think i've I've asked you this last time,
10:43
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure it if I did it worth
10:44
Speaker 1: asking again? What do you miss most about your father?
10:49
Speaker 2: Well, you know, he was my best friend. And whether
10:53
Speaker 2: your best friends, your father, your brother, or just somebody
10:57
Speaker 2: you met in wife, losing them is in incredibly challenging
11:02
Speaker 2: and I just miss halving that person to talk to
11:06
Speaker 2: no matter what. But I'll tell you something about him
11:10
Speaker 2: that really not a lot of people know. I saw
11:12
Speaker 2: the other night he went to the Mets game with
11:14
Speaker 2: mister Cohen and Bill a rally.
11:16
Speaker 1: That's right.
11:18
Speaker 2: So I don't know if you remember o'reley has his
11:21
Speaker 2: show now, right? Doesn't he call one of his shows
11:23
Speaker 2: We'll Do It Live?
11:24
Speaker 1: That is his brand new podcast, which I guess that
11:26
Speaker 1: on two weeks ago.
11:27
Speaker 2: Yes, Well, I'm glad he can kind of make fun
11:30
Speaker 2: of himself a little bit. But I'll tell you what's great.
11:32
Speaker 2: So years ago, everybody, how you have to have seen
11:35
Speaker 2: when he was on doing an Inside Edition. He had
11:38
Speaker 2: that famous off air meltdown where you know he's screaming
11:41
Speaker 2: ef it will do it live and you know he's
11:43
Speaker 2: throwing papers around. It was fantastic.
11:45
Speaker 1: Oh that does a good job out of you. Because
11:47
Speaker 1: most people think he did that on The Factor on
11:49
Speaker 1: Fox News, They're wrong. You're right. Inside Edition very good,
11:52
Speaker 1: that edition.
11:53
Speaker 2: Of the nineties. Then it came out months later in
11:55
Speaker 2: the in like eight or nine, which around oh seven
11:58
Speaker 2: o eight. That a little time at home. It wasn't
12:01
Speaker 2: working for a little bit, but uh yeah, anyway, So
12:05
Speaker 2: we used to watch The O'Reilly Factor at eight o'clock
12:08
Speaker 2: on Fox, and then it would roll into handed In
12:11
Speaker 2: and we'd watch handed In. I still talk to Handy
12:13
Speaker 2: this day. I like it. I like mister Hall part
12:17
Speaker 2: of our It became a ritual in the I'ma's household
12:21
Speaker 2: around seven forty five. We would go on YouTube and
12:25
Speaker 2: we'd watch O'Reilly's note down and we'd be screaming, laughing,
12:29
Speaker 2: and then right about time we got done watching it,
12:31
Speaker 2: we'd roll in and watch the Rally.
12:32
Speaker 1: Fo that's funny. That was a nightly tradition for you guys.
12:37
Speaker 2: About once a week every night. It gets to be
12:39
Speaker 2: a little much, but we'd do it about once a
12:40
Speaker 2: week on Fridays and my dad going there in little
12:44
Speaker 2: living room and we'd watch O'Reilly freak Out and then
12:47
Speaker 2: we'd watch the a Rally Factor.
12:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you do realize that for anybody who
12:51
Speaker 1: thought that your household must have been crazy, that you
12:54
Speaker 1: just exponentially moved out up the next time, it sounds
12:58
Speaker 1: like a crazy out.
12:59
Speaker 2: And the part about it is when Family Guy, the
13:02
Speaker 2: animated show for adults, they did a recreation of it
13:06
Speaker 2: with Stewie and they had Stewie play o'iley. So we
13:09
Speaker 2: got to the point in the I'ma's Household where we'd
13:12
Speaker 2: switch back and forth. One week we'd watch the real thing,
13:15
Speaker 2: and then one week we'd watch the Family Guy version
13:16
Speaker 2: right before we watch The Factor.
13:18
Speaker 1: I got to play this for Bill. He's on every Thursday.
13:20
Speaker 1: He's gonna love this. It's actually funny, that's cute, and
13:22
Speaker 1: you guys had a good time with that. That's good.
13:24
Speaker 1: Bill's gonna appreciate that, trust me. Stewie and the actual
13:28
Speaker 1: audio from Inside Edition in the Imus household before Bill
13:31
Speaker 1: eight o'clock weeknights on Fox News. So before I let

Speaker 1: you run here, Wyatt, I do want you to give
13:36
Speaker 1: out all the information. The folks out there who like
13:39
Speaker 1: boat Needle may be interested and investing in what seems
13:43
Speaker 1: to be a pretty good deal here. You don't have
