Hello and welcome to this episode of Kennedy saves the world.

If you have not been to a PBR event, your world has not been saved.

We went last year at Madison Square Garden, and it was amazing. I grew up watching a good

deal of bull riding and I've always been so intrigued by the brave people who can sit on top of

a wild ass bull and hold on for dear life and hope that they don't get stomped on into a great oblivion.

Kishon Whitehorse joins me now, the pride of the Navajo Nation. Kishon, welcome to Kennedy

saves the world. Thank you for having me. Kishon is here because he is the number 12 bull rider and all of the world.

How long have you been doing this, sir?

Professionally, this is kind of coming into my 10th season, but I was 5.

So I've done it for quite some time.

it just like anything else. Do you start on a mechanical bowl? You can. I think a lot of technique and

fundamentals are taught on a mechanical bowl, but sometimes some guys just get thrown to the fire and you

get on a bull or like if you're a kid, you get on a steer, a calf. But for the most part, you know,

you have clinics, they have rodeo schools that teach ball riding. And on top of that, you learn the fundamentals, the techniques, and all about the equipment that's used in bull riding. There's not much, but there is some. And from there, you'll move on to actually getting on a live animal and just taking each each ride jump or jump, as they say.

All right. So you are part of the Arizona Ridge Riders. It is a team sport. A lot of people think

that you guys are all out there as individuals. But how does the team aspect of PBR work?

So it's kind of similar to other sports. It's a five on five, but the only thing is,
