Modern Cowboy

Really enjoyed talking with Giulia Tacchino, she is a young, talented & motivated international entrepreneur carrying on a 150 year old Family tradition.IN 1862 GIOVANNI TACCHINO, A YOUNG MAN OF COUNTRY ORIGINS, DECIDES TO LEAVE THE COUNTRYSIDE TO REALIZE HIS DREAM…Tacchino was officially born in 1862, thanks to Giovanni Tacchino, a young boy of poor origins who left his beloved rural home and moved to Alessandria, a small town in the North of Italy that is famous for hat manufacturing.He started working as a hatter, quickly developing great abilities in creating felt hats, and after a couple of years he decided to launch his own business together with his wife.It all started with two shop windows in the city center and a steam table in front of our workshop. That is where Giovanni began to believe in his entrepreneurial dream and where our story originated.Today, 150 years after it all began, thanks to the ability of four generations of dedicated hatters, Tacchino has developed this business all around the world, maintaining ancient manufacturing quality standards.Tacchino takes care of hat lovers, guaranteeing the exclusive "Made in Italy" label for all of its collections.Resources:https://www.instagram.com/tacchinohatco/https://www.instagram.com/giulia_tacchino/http://www.tacchino.itShow Sponsors:https://www.instagram.com/tommyhawksaxehouse/www.tommyhawks.netShow Music:“The Ropin Pen” By: Trent Willmonhttps://trentwillmon.com/“Cowboy” By: Kolt Barberhttps://www.koltbarber.com/MC Podcast Production & Editing: Matt Kirschnerhttps://www.instagram.com/mattjkirschner/

Really enjoyed my conversation with Monte on the Podcast. He is an inspiration to everyone to pursue their dreams... It's never too late!Born and raised in southern Michigan on a small farm. Married my high school sweetheart Harriet while in college. We have a son, two daughters, six grand children and 6 great grandchildren. Graduated from Michigan State University in 1964 with a BS in AgriculturalEngineering and a commission in the U.S. Army. Served approximately 2 years active duty in the Corps of Engineers including 13 months in Vietnam; discharged as a 1 st Lieutenant.Started work at Caterpillar Tractor Co. as a research engineer in 1964. Worked innumerous jobs over 33 years in assignments involving research, new product development and testing, manufacturing, quality improvement and human resource development. Retired in 1997. With the military experience and work at Caterpillar I have lived in 6 states and 2 foreign countries.I have always loved horses and bought my first, a Welsh pony, when I was five. My love of the cowboy life and ways has been lifelong. My father was born in Adams Co.North Dakota where my Grandfather and Great Grandfather had homesteaded. I believe this is the seed for my western roots. Riding and developing ranch and roping horses is still still provides great pleasure.I always wanted to learn to rope… for as far back as I can remember, and always fooled around with one at home. In 1993 I had the opportunity to partner on some Corriente cattle and still enjoy raising them; we have a herd registered with the North American Corriente Assn. In 1995 I had the opportunity to attend my first roping clinic. It was fantastic. Since then I have been able to profit from help from so many generous professionals.Beyond my family, horses, roping and Corriente cattle have been the focus of my retirement. Since 1997 we have been able to spend a good portion of every winter in Wickenburg, Arizona. My wife loves the desert, exploring and walking daily, and I have all the great opportunities to rope there and ride on the desert.My struggle associated with learning to rope, coupled with my experience in quality improvement led me to write “Rope Your Dream”. This experience has led me to so many wonderful people and so much satisfaction in my retirement. Through this all my wife and family have provided wonderful support and encouragement; and God has blessed me with the health and resources for this incredible enjoyment.Resources:https://www.facebook.com/monte.alkireShow Sponsors:https://www.instagram.com/tommyhawksaxehouse/www.tommyhawks.netShow Music:“The Ropin Pen” By: Trent Willmonhttps://trentwillmon.com/“Cowboy” By: Kolt Barberhttps://www.koltbarber.com/MC Podcast Production & Editing: Matt Kirschnerhttps://www.instagram.com/mattjkirschner/

Had a great time on the Podcast catching up with great friend Craig Johnson - Certified Master Dog Trainer aka "The Dog Dude" I am a 1993 graduate from National K9 located in Columbus Ohio. I received a certificate in basic and advanced obedience, Scent discrimination, police k9 and personal protection, specializing in transformation of your dog's unwanted behaviors. I have worked with clients from all walks of life. From individual puppy parents to large families. As well as professional athletes to pioneer and icons in the beauty industry. But I have come to realize that my clients all seem to have a few things In common: they share a deep love, commitment and passion to create a relationship with their dog that they have always dreamt of having. Together we can turn those dreams into reality . When you work with me you will have a personal coach that can guide You and Your Puppy/Dog into a balanced canine. From the time I was able to walk, I had a deep interest and curiosity of animals in general and even more specifically Dogs . I have been doing in home lessons for the past 27 years, which I have found works amazing because your dog is on their home turf- so that gives me a chance to see their true colors. I do some group classes now and again which I love because it gives people a chance to bring their dogs together in a social setting. I like nothing more than to see people’s relationship with their Dog blossom into the partnership or bond that most can only dream of achieving !!!

Great conversation with a true Patriot & my personal tax expert, Mark Kent owner North State Consultants.As told by Mark: Born in Yreka California, my family moved to Running Springs in Southern California till fourth grade, and from there we moved all over the state of California because of my Fathers work with Cal Trans. I have lived in every part of the state at one time of another. I went to five different high schools Burlingame high, Hanford high, Yreka High, Happy Camp High and Graduated from Peninsula High in San Mateo. Went on to some college at CSM but most of what I have in education has come from hard fought battles in the real world, not academia. I have been self Employed since I was seven years old. My first business was a worm farm. I went on to other various business, paper routes, played accordion in a Italian restaurant , projectionist in a movie theater, Pool service company, Licensed Timber Harvester, along with other logging related activities. I build split rail fences and sold wood by the cord. I was also employed by various government agencies included CDF as Timber Faller, USFS Fighting Fire, US Army as a Power Diesel Generation Mechanic, and the public works Department at the City of San Mateo. I Started a Marble and Tile Delivery Service in the Bay Area in the early 80’s where I studied Law. Yes you heard that correct while driving delivery and being in the truck most of each day, instead of listen to music , I listened to Law and Taxation courses from various colleges including Cornell and Loyola just to name a few. So while driving delivery I listened and studied under America’s Greatest Law Professors. I referred to that old 1972 Chevy truck as my university on wheels or Commute U. Somewhere in this time frame my Son was diagnosed with cancer and I had almost a million dollars in medical expenses that I had no idea how I was going to pay. So I started a tax preparation and consulting business, while also working for and tutoring under some very experience businessmen. I have been very lucky to have had some amazing mentors and associates. Olympic weightlifter\tax Consultant, a Tax Attorney, Professional Baseball Player, Sales experts, Data analysts, all highly trained and motivated people. The best mentors I could find in their respective fields of expertise. They all contributed to my success in many different ways. I have completed so many courses on Law and Taxation it would be redundant to list them. So I like to say I went to the University of Hard knocks and earned a Degree in Results. I have been practicing in the field of Taxation for about thirty years now specializing in small business tax strategies. I also specialize in trouble shooting any problems concerning engagements with the IRS including but not limited to audits, collection, record keeping, entity selection and implementation.I have also been involved with, and helped set up and run several Not for profit corporations and associations. I currently host talk radio show on KCNR 1460 a local am station.

Had a great time on the Podcast with Zach Rhodes, we covered many topics including current events. I love Zach's attitude & fortitude not only standing up for what his believes but also taking action to effect change. Enjoy!Zach was born and raised in Reno, Nevada. His love for horses started at an early age, through rodeo. He enjoys calf roping and team roping at amateur and pro rodeos, and has been an avid Cross Fit enthusiast for the last three years, competing in local competitions. It is Zach’s passion in the arena that led to his passion in equine dentistry and helping horses. Zach is a graduate of the Texas Institute of Equine Dentistry where he obtained his first certification. He has also worked under his great friend, and world renown Equine Dentist Randy Riedinger. He has worked on horses all over Oregon and California, for many renowned horsemen and horsewomen, including 3 x World Champion Heeler Jade Corkill. He has been practicing equine dentistry for 9 years now. He became certified through the IAED (International Association of Equine Dentistry) in 2017. He has devoted the last 8 years of his life to helping horse owners and their horses solve common eating and riding issues associated with the mouth. In 2018 he was appointed chairman of the IAED Government Relations Committee. Since 2014 Zach has been committed to restoring the horse owners right to choose, as well as protecting the livelihoods of all equine dentists throughout various states in the U.S.Resources:https://www.instagram.com/zachary_rhodes89/?hl=enShow Sponsors:www.thecowlot.com / @thecowlotwww.canyoncoolers.com / @canyoncoolerswww.itsjerky.com / @its.jerkyShow Music:“The Ropin Pen” By: Trent Willmonhttps://trentwillmon.com/“Cowboy” By: Kolt Barberhttps://www.koltbarber.com/MC Podcast Production & Editing: Matt Kirschnerhttps://www.instagram.com/mattjkirschner/
