Welcome to Beyond the Ring, a podcast that covers all things in the stock show industry from the informative to the insane, starring Ryan Rash.

Be raw, be open, be real, because the last thing this world needs is another fake-ass person.

And Dale Hummel.

It takes nothing to join the crowd. It takes everything to stand alone.

Now on with the show.

Welcome to Beyond the Ring.

This is Dale Hummel, along with co-star, Ryan Rash.

Hello, hello, hello.

Ryan, I know there's a lot going on in the world, but I do have, I received a text from a listener.

He's good about keeping me informed of things going on in Springfield, Illinois.

I know all you know about Springfield is a state fair and how toxic it is, but that is also our state

capital. And he lives down in that area. This didn't happen in Springfield, but not far away,

Carlinville, kind of rural Illinois.

There are people out there protesting basically anti-Trump protesters.

Guess what a couple, I assume, farmers did while this protest was going on.

I hope they ran over them with tractors.

So do I.

I get this on my feed somewhere.

All that is, something about they only carry people that are harming protesters, and it's very entertaining.

But, no, they did not run them over, but they did get two loads of, I don't know if it was cattle shit, livestock shit, livestock manure and parked it right there at the protesters and left.

That's lovely.

They were very offended by it, it appeared.
