    Episode 24-04: Hailey Kinsel Is Back: NFR Prep, Barrel Runs & Luke’s Arena Shenanigans
    Nov 26 2025
    Four-time world champion Hailey Kinsel is back — and Luke does what Luke does best: drags her out to the Branquinho Arena for a little “friendly” NFR prep, a lot of coaching, and even more goofing off. Between the in-studio sit-down and arena time, they fine-tune her first barrel, laugh about the “Facebook warriors” who claim she blows past it, and talk through the real work that goes into sharpening up before Vegas. Hailey arrives at the 2025 NFR aiming for her fifth world title, coming off a season where Hailey's legendary horse, Sister, returned from last year’s NFR hamstring injury and placed at 20 out of 21 rodeos. She breaks down how she brought Sister back slowly, starting the winter on Spider and Reese, and how horses like Libby are being seasoned in high-pressure pens for the future. They also talk about Hailey’s fast-growing Youth Barrel Race, which expanded from a massive one-day event to a two-day blowout this year, with hundreds of runs, big-name sponsors, and tons of prizes. Hailey shares why being available to help riders — the way Luke once helped her — is something she’ll never take lightly. It’s real friendship, real coaching, and real prep for rodeo’s biggest stage... with plenty of laughs in between! ━━━━━━━━━━ ★ 📧 Get in touch with us: lbs@banditproductionco.com 🌐 Visit our website: www.thelukebranquinhoshow.com ➤ Follow on Instagram: www.instagram.com/lukebranquinhoshow ➤ Follow on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@thelukebranquinhoshow ━━━━━━━━━━ ★ Thanks for watching!

    Episode 24-03: Jackie Crawford on Dominating 2025 & Raising the Bar Yet Again
    Nov 21 2025
    Luke Branquinho sits down with 23-time World Champion Jackie Crawford, one of our FAVORITE returning guests, who’s having another standout year and dominating the arena with her trademark grit and precision! In 2025, Jackie became the first roper in WPRA history to surpass $1 million in career earnings, added another WPRA Team Roping Header World Championship, and continues to post strong results across multiple events — proving yet again why she’s one of the most accomplished competitors in rodeo. Luke and Jackie dig into the mental game, staying sharp through a long season, and what fuels her competitive drive. They even joke about the idea of a “soft retirement”… and how her current run makes that pretty hard to believe. Whether you rope, ride, or just love hearing from true champions, this conversation brings insight, honesty, and that signature Jackie-Crawford toughness. ━━━━━━━━━━ ★ Thanks for watching!

Bo brings a unique blend of Western roots and big-city marketing expertise. He’s one of the key people helping elevate the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo into a world-class, city-wide celebration. In this episode, Luke and Bo dive into: • How Las Vegas Events turns the NFR into a ten-day festival of rodeo, entertainment, and fan experience. • His role as General Manager of the Junior National Finals Rodeo, which spans ten days inside the Wrangler Rodeo Arena. • The strategy behind corporate marketing for rodeo, including sponsorships, partnerships, and year-round engagement. • Why the “NFR Experience” is designed to give every fan a rodeo moment—even those without an arena ticket. • How Bo’s lifelong connection to the Western lifestyle influences his approach to major-event branding. • The behind-the-scenes work that keeps Las Vegas the home of the NFR and the heartbeat of rodeo in December. ━━━━━━━━━━ ★ Thanks for watching!
