About this listen

Hey y’all, welcome back to In The Loop Podcast! I’m your host, Jordan Jo Hollabaugh, and I couldn’t be more excited for this episode because we’re diving into one of the biggest events of the year—the Women’s Rodeo World Championships (WRWC)!

With the WRWC right around the corner, I sat down with Linsay Rosser-Sumpter and Sami Jo Smith, two of the incredible women behind this game-changing event. We talked about everything from the $1.2 million payout to the new additions this year, and what makes this competition such a special moment for women in rodeo.

Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:

✅ How the WRWC has grown over the past six years and what’s in store this year
✅ The road to AT&T Stadium—how cowgirls qualify and what’s new in the format
✅ The Smarty Rodeo Goat Tying Showcase and why this event is a game-changer
✅ Why the WRWC Gala is one of my favorite nights of the year
✅ Our vision for the future of women’s rodeo and why we’re not stopping here

This isn’t just another rodeo—it’s a movement. I’ve had the honor of competing at WRWC, and I can tell you firsthand how life-changing this event is for women in our sport. So whether you’re a competitor, a fan, or just love a good underdog story, this episode is for you!
