A podcast dedicated to breakaway roping — one of the fastest-growing events in professional rodeo and the collegiate circuit. The host is a breakaway specialist who has competed at the college level and now coaches youth and amateur ropers. Episodes cover the technical side of the event — swing mechanics, loop delivery for the shorter slide, horse rating under pressure, and building a consistent run at speeds that leave no room for error. The podcast interviews top WPRA breakaway competitors and coaches who break down what separates a 1.8 from a 2.4 run, and what practice structures actually produce improvement. The show also addresses the political and organizational side of the event — WPRA rule changes, breakaway being added to more PRCA-sanctioned rodeos, and what full PRCA breakaway inclusion would mean for the women who compete in it. Episodes on youth breakaway development and the pipeline from high school rodeo to college competition are consistently among the highest-rated.
