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.

No New Year, New Me, bullshit. I'm going to be worse.

And Dale Hummel.

It's always sunny in Arizona.

Now on with the show.

Welcome to Beyond the Ring. This is Dale Hummel, along with co-star Ryan Rash.

Hello, hello, hello.

Ryan, it is a 70 degree plus day. The sun is shining and life is good in Phoenix.

Well, that's kind of annoying because it was 85 yesterday and all weekend in Texas and Oklahoma. And now it's like

32.

We've lost.

Mother Nature is all for meds and drunk.

I got a text from Commonwealth Edison, our power company last night that our power was out.

Craig said it's 14 degrees with 40 minute mile an hour winds at home.

You had thunderstorms. You had all kinds of stuff because you're rain. Tornado. Yes, because your ring cameras also send me those updates for your local weather, even though you're in Phoenix. I get all the cable weather nonsense. Yes. I don't get anything from my ring camera. Because you have the notifications turned off. I don't even know why you have the app on your phone. You do nothing for it. The goats could die. I wake up, I check on the goats and away you go. And if once, and all honestly, once I give you that code, I don't have to worry about it. Exactly. You also don't answer my text when people are petting the goats in the middle of the night, and I want them to stop. If they can hear you as a national, please quit petting Katie's goats. It's annoying. I think they can hear you. You can yell into the app. I think they can hear you. If I could yell at the people, I would. I'm not, I know you can hear them, right? Do you have the sound where you can hear what's going on? Yes, but I cannot yell back. And I would tell them. And I can't think of the, I can't envision a speaker. Maybe we need to get a one that we can go both ways. Maybe we can. I don't know. It would be very bad. There would be people very offended by me.

Well, I get that first night, I don't know how many texts I got from you, but this person's walking through. Why just all there?

Your goats are up and down.

Yes. I don't even texting the last three nights because you just don't pay attention and you don't respond.

So unless somebody's going to murder them or stick them with a needle, I'm not texting you anymore.

I'm just going to watch my goats in private.

I have not. Last time we recorded, I was not feeling well on it. It got a lot worse for a while.

And I'm definitely on the upswing
