Like a Farmer

At just 20 years old, John Crimber is a PBR World Champion and he's nowhere close to finished. The bull riding phenom joins the Like A Farmer Podcast to take us inside his incredible journey from getting on his first bull at just six years old to reaching the top of professional bull riding and capturing the 2026 PBR World Championship. John relives the dramatic World Finals where he entered the final weekend after bucking off four straight bulls, bounced back with two massive rides, and how he learned he'd become World Champion. He also reveals what a 20-year-old cowboy does after earning a $1 million World Championship bonus.
John talks about growing up in a bull riding family, the impact his dad has had as both a father and coach, joining the PBR immediately after turning 18, and why becoming World Champion hasn't made him satisfied. He wants MORE, including chasing multiple world titles and attempting to become the first rider to capture the PBR and PRCA World Championships in the same year. From million-dollar buckles to buying cattle, John Crimber is helping lead the next generation of professional bull riding and the World Champion is just getting started.

Ross Chastain is back for another Ag to Asphalt presented by Fresh From Florida, breaking down a wild stretch in NASCAR starting with Bristol, where Ross reacts to the Carson Hocevar-Ryan Blaney fight, Ty Gibbs' water bottle toss and everything that unfolded after the checkered flag. Then Ross recaps a challenging weekend at Kansas, where the No. 1 Trackhouse Racing team spent the race making major adjustments before finally finding speed late, and weighs in on a busy NASCAR season, including the surprising Brad Keselowski news and other moves across the Cup Series. In this week's Georgia Boot segment, Ross sits down with No. 1 car fueler Brook Davenport to hear his unlikely journey from mechanical engineering to NASCAR pit road, how fueling has evolved with the Next Gen car and what it takes to execute some of the fastest pit stops in racing.

Wheeler Walker Jr. joins the Like A Farmer Podcast for a spirited conversation about his final album, final tour, the changing country music industry, and why he says he's ready to walk away while he's still on top. Wheeler explains how writing his new album Pulling Out ultimately helped him realize it was time to call it a career. After 10 years of doing things completely independently and entirely his own way, he says he's told the story he wanted to tell and would rather leave while he still loves performing than stick around until the fun disappears. But before he goes, Wheeler has PLENTY to say. No filter. No label. No regrets. Wheeler Walker Jr. is pulling out and he's doing it his way.

Ag to Asphalt presented by Fresh From Florida is back as Ross Chastain catches us up on a wild few weeks on and off the track.
Ross starts at Daytona International Speedway, where the No. 1 Trackhouse Racing team captured the pole with NASCAR's new superspeedway rules package. Then it's on to Darlington Raceway, where Ross doesn't sugarcoat a difficult weekend for the team, before breaking down a much different day at World Wide Technology Raceway. Ross takes us inside his late-race strategy, somehow keeps the car out of the wall during a spin, and battles his way to a fifth-place finish, his first NASCAR Cup Series top five in 203 days.

Away from the track, Ross and Ben recap their trip to Buffalo, checking out the Bills' new stadium and Ross taking on Dion Dawkins' viral challenge of catching an oiled-up watermelon.

Then, in this week's Georgia Boot segment, Ross sits down with Mike Roberts, front tire changer on the No. 1 car. Mike shares his journey from chasing a baseball career in North Carolina to breaking into NASCAR, learning the art of changing five-lug tires, winning races with Ross, helping his hometown after Hurricane Helene, and what life looks like away from pit road with his family, horses, and farm.

Finally, Ross looks ahead to Bristol Motor Speedway and another action-packed NASCAR weekend.
