Welcome to the Jam Room......

In this episode, we sit down with Texas-based country band 12 Mile to trace their roots, explore their rise in a fiercely competitive music scene, and hear how they went from small-town gigs to headlining the biggest local stage on the 4th of July. From heartfelt stories about starting out in San Angelo to the adrenaline rush of hitting the road, this conversation dives deep into the highs, challenges, and roadside snack choices of a band chasing their dreams—one mile at a time.

🐴 Selso and Moose: Rodeo Rookies 🐮

It was a scorchin’ Saturday in Midland, and Selso had one goal: become a rodeo legend. Not the usual lasso-swingin’, boot-stompin’ type—but the kind that enters on a unicycle juggling toast. His trusty sidekick Moose (not a moose, just a very large, mildly confused dog who answers to "Buddy Cowboy") was equally determined, mostly because he thought “rodeo” meant “all-you-can-eat chili.”

They showed up late to the tryouts, Selso wearing a glittery cape, Moose wearing half a saddle and a cowboy hat that looked like it had survived a tornado and a toddler. The announcer squinted at them and said, “Uh...what event are y’all here for?”

Selso winked. “Surprise category.”

Their first challenge: the mechanical bull. Selso climbed on like a knight mounting a dragon. Moose sat beside the control panel and—trying to be helpful—accidentally pressed TURBO. The bull spun so fast Selso achieved temporary orbit. When he landed, he struck a heroic pose. “Did I win?”

Next up, the lasso challenge. Selso tried to rope a plastic steer while Moose chased it thinking it was a chew toy. Selso roped Moose by accident. Moose didn’t mind. He was just happy to be involved.

Finally, the freestyle performance. Selso and Moose burst onto the dirt arena with boom box blaring. Selso breakdanced while juggling toast, Moose did interpretive barking. The crowd went silent, confused, then slowly erupted into laughter and applause.

They didn’t win any rodeo trophies. But they did win something better: a golden spatula labeled “Most Creative Misinterpretation of a Rodeo”. Selso held it high. “This is for everyone who ever dreamed of dancing in dirt!”

Moose howled in agreement, his cowboy hat falling off dramatically.

Hey.....were back.........again.

So with both of our lives just being so hectic lately we decided to do an episode idea that we; had for a while. in hindsight its probably a horrible idea. But for the sake of getting an episode out we grabbed some snacks, got comfy and put on one of Selsos favorite movies. The 2003 skater film "GRIND". We had fun watching this movie and making some commentary on it. Let us know if you would like this idea or if we should scrap any future episodes with this idea.

SO if you're super bored and want to watch along with this episode , grab you some popcorn and twizzlers and lets do this.
