The Hosts
Ted Stovin
Yet another failed contestant, this guy didn't make it as a bull rider but he does consider himself a moderately successful college dropout. He's the creator of Everything Cowboy Inc. and co-founder of the Cowboy Sh!t Podcast. Since neither of those pay super well, he's also the sales rep for Canada West Boots and Montana Silversmiths in Alberta as well as a part time audio enthusiast mixing the music and working production at some of the largest western events in Canada. He resides in Calgary with his Fiancé Storm Dafoe and their wiener dogs, Ellie and Pippa.
Dustin Edwards
Like all rodeo announcers before him, Dustin Edwards couldn’t make money in the rodeo arena but could talk a lot. This led to his now 16 year career announcing rodeos across Canada. Despite having a face for radio (and podcasting), Dustin has also been the on-camera broadcaster for six Canadian Finals Rodeos. When not down the rodeo trail, Dustin works for the Calgary Sports & Entertainment Group as the Manager, Business Operations for the Calgary Roughnecks NLL team. Dustin and his partner Aly stay busy at their farm outside Drumheller and with their business endeavours Pearl & Hart and Barney’s Adventure Park.
