In this episode of Beyond the Chutes, Doug takes us to the 10th Annual Mountain Cove Rodeo Reunion in Georgia, in North Georgia. Recording in the BTC bus, Doug shares stories from the show barn, where rodeo legends gather for this special event organized by Marlin Harris.
In this episode, Doug interviews Ernie Roberts, a bull riding legend who grew up in North Georgia and calls Friendship, Tennessee home. Ernie reflects on his early memories of rodeo, sharing stories of his wild childhood, how basketball dreams turned into a successful rodeo career, and how joining the UT Martin Rodeo Team taught him how to win. He talks about one of his mentors in the sport – Freckles Brown. With insights on the mental and physical demands of rodeo, the importance of having a strong foundation, and how friendships in the rodeo community and his personal faith have shaped his life, Ernie gives listeners a rare look into the heart of a cowboy. Whether you’re a rodeo fan or just love a good story, this episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and nostalgia straight from Mountain Cove and one of North Georgia’s Rodeo Greats.
