This is a special throwback episode from Logan's old show, because when the National Finals Rodeo is happening, there\u2019s no better time to revisit a story like this. In this episode, Logan is joined by Tim O\u2019Connell, the 3x World Champion Bareback Rider and one of the most dominant cowboy athletes in modern rodeo. Rodeo runs deep in Tim\u2019s blood, and you\u2019ll hear that from the very beginning of his journey. Tim walks us through his early days as a bull rider, the pivotal wreck that made him realize bull riding wasn\u2019t his future, and the moment he shifted into the bareback world\u2014where he ultimately became a champion. We talk about the mindset, the injuries, the physical toll, the adrenaline, and what it actually takes to compete at the highest level in rodeo. You\u2019ll hear about: \u2022 Tim\u2019s start in rodeo \u2022 The brutal bull riding wreck that changed his direction \u2022 Why bareback riding \u201cclicked\u201d and how he found his groove \u2022 What the bareback rigging actually does to your body \u2022 How elite cowboy athletes train and stay in the fight \u2022 Insights into the rodeo lifestyle during NFR season Tim completely opened our eyes to the reality of professional rodeo, the cowboy culture, and the grit it takes to be the best in the world. With the NFR in full swing, We figured there\u2019s no better time to bring this story back to life.
