#153 Marilyn Duplissey: We Taped Over the Light

Sep 30, 2025

In Part 2 of our conversation with Marilyn Duplissey, the stories get even wilder. From losing her college heifers to finding her stride in the IRA, Marilyn takes us through the early days with Dan—the horse that carried her to the top. You’ll hear about rodeoing on grass in Gainesville, altitude struggles in Albuquerque, and the unforgettable moment when Dan tumbled out on the highway at 70 mph… only to win the very next rodeo. Along the way, Marilyn shares what it took to get into the zone, the importance of great farriers, and the grit it takes to chase a championship. Her humor, honesty, and toughness shine through every story. Subscribe now—because this ride is far from over.
