Two Mountain Cove Rodeo Reunion Legends share the miles, the moments, and the brotherhood built on the road between rodeos.
Recorded last fall at the historic and legendary Mountain Cove Rodeo Reunion, organized by Marlon Harris, Sam Swearingen and Doug Simcox sat down with Mountain Cove Rodeo Reunion Legends Award winners Adam Wood and Kevin Ellis.
These two cowboys spent years running the Southeastern rodeo circuit—riding bulls, fighting bulls, chasing two rodeos in a day, and learning the hard lessons that only come from life in the arena and miles on the highway.
In this conversation, Adam and Kevin share how they got started, the mentors who shaped them, the practice pens and small-town rodeos that built their careers, and the friendships that lasted long after the bucking chutes closed.
From Alligator Alley runs between rodeos… to the legendary bull riding at Kissimmee and Okeechobee… to the moment Kevin discovered he was meant to fight bulls, this episode captures the grit, humor, and brotherhood that defined a generation of Southeastern rodeo cowboys.
Because in rodeo, the trophies fade—but the road stories never do.
