  Speaker 4: But then then the parade starts at five o'clock, in
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: which we want to have as many people want to
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: get into it as possible. That's great. We have a
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: lot of the entertainers who will be performing that night
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: at the well worst show, we'll also be in the parade.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: So you kind of joined the parade.
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: Yes, well pretty much, yeah, pretty much.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: And and of course so the big feature is at
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: the last part of the parade is the longhorns trading through,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: and so that's always pretty I'm glad they're pretty well broke.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: They've done this a lot because there's we'll be got
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: we've got some exciting. Yes, there's almost one year they
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: start around that curve right there at the museum and
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: they decide that wasn't normally that curve, and so you
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: know that when you got about thirty head long horns,
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: they got about a six foot spread each one of them,
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: and all.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: Of a sudden, it's it creates traffic jam. They get
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: a little western there.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: Before we've got started, and so and but this year
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: we're going to do the parade route differently.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: We're going to reverse it this year.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: It so that way.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Basically, it's going to start up there by the museum
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: and go east down Main Street to the Highway and
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: then like the Christmas Parade goes and then back right
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: along the highway. So the cowboys say, yeah, we can
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: keep them long horns out of.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: The road, but it's a change for them. It's a change.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: Hey, this could get western real quick before the show,
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: so they could be excited. So there might be a
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: lot of entertainment there before they get beforehand.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: And the show is it kind of caps it all off, Yes, sir,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and that kind of harkens back to the to their
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Roudio and the original you know fact that the.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Round up show, because really it's not people get the
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: idea that it's We try to make it more of
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: a wild West show, not a road deal, because most
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: everything here is not a competitive deal. We do have
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: some like stray Gathering, which just shows how the cowboys
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: doctored their cattle in with our shoots without an open
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: gray opening, so they're just in the open that gott
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: to rope them and tie them down so they.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: Can work on them with the old ways.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: Of course, we have the trick Riders, which is part
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: of the old wild West show.
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: Sharp shooters, uh we have this year we have an
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: Indian dancer that will show up, which is fantastic and
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: you need to see him.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: He's does the hoop dance and that is a that
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: takes a.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: Lot of practice, a lot of talent, so it's that'll
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: be quite entertaining. The uh uh and but we've got
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: of course, we always got to ride Bronx Cimon, the
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Buccan horses is part of it. And this year we're
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: going to have some uh miniature Bronx and so these
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: kids that want to ride bucket horses, they're going to
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: start out with the little horses.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: I was so excited to get on with the show here,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: but I didn't really introduce you.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Richard Heinrich. Yes, Richard, and welcome to the show.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: And Carlota Gordon's here also representing that all the people
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: that put this on, because I know it's a community wide,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: a lot of volunteers involved and everything, So thank you
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: for yours.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: It takes a village.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know this is it's one of those things.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: But it's a great event. I mentioned that, you know,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: just going to that museum. If people haven't really connected
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: with this part of what goes on around here, they
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: need to go to this event and they'll have a
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: lot of fun with you young kids especially. It is
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: a really magical I think, to imagine your life as
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: a cowboy and the back in the wild West, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: this gives you a chance to kind of.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: God, this gives you kind of chance to get into
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: it to see what was kind of like. It's of
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: course it's different than it was, but it's still it's
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: still got the same attitudes, the same as the uh,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: the stik of that, that imagination.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: That you're going to have.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Igina, of course, yeah, the One.
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: Armed bandit is going to be there.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: He'll be trying too.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I think everybody comes to see john to see if
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: you're gonna fall off that day.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: He's way up there.
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: It is way up there in the pund Yeah, and
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: so well West Show is in the parground.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: And so this's that's kind of interesting because that the
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: ceiling is not real high, the cross members of those
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: trusses is not real high. And Johnson, I bet he
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: could grab a hold of one of them.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: He's that close to them.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: It's it's kind of and his truck barely fits in
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: that back.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: It's it's one of those where you don't get in
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: the big hurry.
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: You better can keep in mind.
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: He puts the Zeit Weell last year with a zebra
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: and the two horses on top of the trailer and
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: he gets up there with him.
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: So keep in mind, it's pretty exciting.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: That sounds exciting. Yeah, that's that's different. Good, I bet
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: it is.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: And that's what a lot of people like about it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Is that you're not sitting in a stand somewhere and
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: looking at some people down in the.
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: Arena, you know, three yards from them.
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: You're about one hundred feet now, maybe fifty feet because
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: that arena is only one hundred and fifty feet wide.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: So you're within fifty feet of the people.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: You're singing. What they're doing that's amazing.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: So that way you can really get into I think
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: they get into it more because you're ritching so intimate now, yeah,
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: because you could get dirt kicked on you and stuff
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: like that.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Well, let's go through the schedule one more time while
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: we've piqued everybody's interest.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: It all kicks off.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Around noon, yes, and you've got bands and entertainment and food,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: all kinds of stuff going on.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: When is the dress up contest?
• 8:57

  Speaker 2: Think that really it should be something they want to
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: check out. It's a lot of fun. That sounds like
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: it would be a great event. There's so much other

  Speaker 3: And that's going to be at the Elks Lodge on

• 12:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know if normal is really what you know,

  Speaker 2: a we get allocated vehicles twice a month by Toyota,

  Speaker 2: and we got twenty eight in the last allocation. That
• 12:53

  Speaker 4: he get old enough? You think, my gosh, I can
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: write anything with four legs.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: No you can't.
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: I didn't do the dang bulls. I was too scared.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: I'd I kind of like the saddle Bronx.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: I wish Bobby Dobkio. Oh yeah, big bull rider and
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: he was. He was crazy and yeah, a great guy.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: One of my best friends is.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: A coor dealer. But yeah, no, he was a lot
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: of fun and he definitely had no fear.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, I kind of all took up some trick roping.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: He's for brings everybody. If you got to rope, you
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: gotta be able to do some size rope, a metal
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: hang or something, sure, And so I just took it up.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: And then I was a friend of mine and his
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: dad had a rodeo company when I was in Southeast Oklahoma,
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: and they will come up to me one time and
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: I said, hey, we need some entertainment of our shows.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: And I said, what are you looking at me for it?
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: And so well, well, you know, you you little.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Little trick roping.
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: So I went down there and and I trick wrote
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: form a little bit.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: I wasn't all that good way back then, and they
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: paid me and I got the you know, my I
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. But I'll tell
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: you that I fucking wait a minute, I'm paying entry
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: fees to go rope, but they're gonna pay me to
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: do this.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: I thought, now we're gonna try it. We're gonna change
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: our direction here.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: So I got in.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Yes, I started doing a lot of trick roping and stuff,
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: and this one thing led to another and it got
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: toward it.
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: I was very fortunate with it.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: I got to go to Broadway and and rope up there,
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: and uh, it's it's like if else. I was up
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: there for about four or five days and doing at
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: the Girtschman Theater. And they come time to leave, and
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: got to the airport and scort always tell you, you know,
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: what seat do you want? And I says, ma'am, I
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: want to seat. It gets to Oplahoma first, the.
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: Rest of them, I don't care, give me out of
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: this town. And so but and did I've been like
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: I said, I got fortunate of which spent a week
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: at at disney World.
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: At the Epcot Center, and that was another exciting You never.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Know what things are going to lead you to. And
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: we called that Sparks at the dealership. And there's a
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: long heritage of that in my family. You know, how
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: my grandfather got into Ford businesses, the kind of like
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: that story where his father had passed away and and
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: they moved to Tonko, Law and my great grandmother was
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: teaching school, and they went to work at the Ford dealership.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Grandfather and his brothers that do it, you know, just
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: part time jobs sweeping and working in the parts department.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: One became a salesman and playing playing sports on the
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: basketball team.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Got a picture of them in the late twenties or
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: mid twenties going on that team. And later he became
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: a dealer there. And the just you know, those those
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: sparks imagining of things and the doors that opened when
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: you when you moved to Oklahoma or decided to test
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: that thing. I mean so many things like that. You know,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: I can just put back on the stories he tells
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: he and his brothers told, and anyway that I like
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: stories about that.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: How people get into these things.
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: You get into that and you kind of like whatever.
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: But and then had got tell me one time you
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: got to remembery, of course, the most famous trick roper
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: in Oklahoma's Will Rogers, And we could talk about that,
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: and you had to and all of a sudden reality,
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: will hitch you. You think Will Rogers did not make
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: his money rope. He starved to death this cowboy and
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: deals not you know, most of the time, it's not
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: a real lucrative occupation. And so but I.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Was one of the probably the worst famous Oklahoma and
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: over and you know, and it was the stories he
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: told and.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: You know, the way that he managed to create the
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: you know, the biggest persona in the world at that time.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: I think, yep.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: But I ended up I thought, well, I got to
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: make a live in some way, and I was pretty
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: much too lazy to work for living.
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: I think, you know, constraction.
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: So I went into teaching school, which ended up there's
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: a lot more work than I thought it was. And
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: that which I thought, well, okay, I've got to stay
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: with teaching because he will, you'll help pay for my
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: habit and and you know, exercise retired after forty years
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: of teaching.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: And I'm not crazy. People think that I got through
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: all that and didn't end up in the looney.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Half, But uh, where did you teach?
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: A different spots? So I'll spent my last I guess
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: fifteen years at Kinney Valley at Ramona, Okay, that's where
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: I lived, and that was that was a good place.
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: It's so then I retired. Then I got to really
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: do what I wanted to.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: Do because like I said, it was still the retirement
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: was still paying for my heads.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: So and it became.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: Answer that one thing later to another, and I've had
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: a lot of fun with it.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: So thanks for telling you.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: That's awesome, And it's a chance this weekend for those
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: of you listening to kind of get a glimpse of
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: that life of the Western heritage and the Western show
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: that you know goes back to our culture to the
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: middle of the last century. I think, yes, yeah, it's.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Such a great, great thing to tell those stories.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: And I, like I said, I remember as a child
• 20:55

• 20:59

• 21:04
  Speaker 2: all share in Oklahoma here.
• 21:06

• 24:06
  Speaker 2: more stuff coming later in the summer.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: I did give a little update.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I haven't mentioned soccer in a few months, but you
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: know that was has been a theme in the past,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: as both my sons played a lot of soccer, and
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: I've chased soccer balls now for it seems like the
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: last twenty five years. But now body's on a Division
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: III soccer team now that's up to number four in
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: the country. They're undefeated, they're six to soho and three.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: He's he's just a freshman and he's not really playing
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: right now. They have a senior goalkeeper. That's that's uh
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: got kind of so he's kind of learning many things now,
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: but he's watching and learning. He got last night to
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: go to the Columbus Crew game against Miami and saw
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: saw Messi score two goals and Suarez and anyway, that's
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: enough of a soccer report.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: But it's cool, good it is now.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: It's always great and proud of him and he's having
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: a great time in his fresh year at college and
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: lots of other stuff going on. Hopefully next week I'll
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: be bringing Mike DeVore, who's our body shop manager at Dungeons.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: You know, we're going through a transition at Dungeons where
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: we're actually selling the Ford Store and that's a sad
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: thing for us, but it's also exciting and I think
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: it's going to be a great thing for the community
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: and for the Forward and the Toyota brands here. As
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: we know, it just helps us invest more in our dealerships.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: But the body Shop is going to go with us
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: on the Toyota side and we're looking at expansion there.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: It's been a great business one of the last few years.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: And what's cool about the body Shop is the longevity
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: of our people there. There's seven people that work in
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: the body Shop with seventy three years of tenure and
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: so pretty pretty amazing a lot a couple of guys
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: that started out as teenagers and are still there twenty five,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: twenty six years later. And you know, it's one of
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: those businesses and industries that you can do that now.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: And that's kind of unique that, you know, people stick
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: with a position and goals like.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: That for through the decades.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: And you know that my uncle Joe and his uh
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: you know, he's been there fifty plus years and you know,
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: you guys and do we all know Joe? So anyway,
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: and he worked in the body shop for so long,
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: but so we'll talk body shop a little bit next week.
• 26:29
