BTC host Doug Simcox travels to Ramer, Alabama and sits down with legendary pro-rodeo announcer Jerry Todd. From riding bareback horses to becoming one of the most recognizable voices in rodeo, Jerry shares his incredible journey.
We discuss his start in announcing, being discovered by Preston Fowlkes, meeting his mentor Clem McSpadden, and working with several of the top stock contractors like Ken Treadway Rodeo, Charlie Lowry’s 4L Rodeo, and J-Bar-J Rodeo. Jerry reflects on calling the International Finals Rodeo (IFR), his years at the PRCA Southeast Circuit Finals, and the evolution of rodeo entertainment.
He also gives us a glimpse into life at Kick Back Ranch Resort, which he runs with his wife Mindy, and their work with the inspiring Miracle Rodeo for children with disabilities. Packed with history, humor, and heart, this episode is a must-listen!
