He delves into the balancing act of military, school, and baseball, and how to manage the pressure that comes with each. As a bonus, he spills the beans on his unique plays that gave him an edge on the field.But it's not all about the game.

In this episode, Justin and Josh travel to Lexington Virginia to investigate the historic and haunted Poor House Road Tunnel. It allegedly had a dark past full of murder and rape. Apparently there were two little girls that were murdered by a man and their spirits are left there telling people who visit to “Come On” or to “Get Out.” The two podcasters experience something bizarre and capture what they think is…the dead.

W.E. First Phase (Dressage) On Labor day weekend 2013 Carbon and I had the opportunity to drive up to Lexington Virginia from North Carolina to attend the Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club's (ERAHC) annual Classic horse breed show. You may ask why would I take a Quarter Horse to an Andalusian breed show? The answer is simple, to compete in Working Equitation. Right now, WE is relatively a new sport here in the USA and most participants are Spanish horse breed shows. Yes, Carbon and I enjoyed riding with all those fancy Iberian horses. We are very thankful that this was an open opportunity class, meaning any type of breed was welcome to come and play WE. As you can see in the video below, the first phase is very similar to Western Dressage. WE's first phase is judge much like dressage in the aspect that you are scored 1-10 based on the quality of movement. Because of this similarity, we were very attracted to this new sport.. Remember that this is the first of phases of three in Working Equitation; so keep an eye out for the others. In my next video will show the other two phases (EOH and Speed). This was level 4 under USFWE rules and test. If you are unfamiliar with Working Equitation, Here is a link to a little more information about WE. We hope you enjoy this video as an inspiration to WD and an educational opportunity for WE. Unlike some of the other Western Dressage videos that we have posted, this test is a little more advanced with a 15m working canter, walk canter depart, turn on haunches, and a whole bunch of flying changes. If you look closely you will see some mistakes, but we included Carbon's scores and the judges remarks to help you understand what is expected at this level. On a side note, we had the opportunity meet the president of the world association of working equitation from Portugal "Joao Ralao Durarte". What a great learning opportunity and treat that was.. We would like to give a special thanks to Carol Havelka... Videographer and let's not forget: Bruce Harbin... Photographer Jeane Bond... show committee Wayne Hipsley... Judge Joao Ralao Duarte... co-judge from Portugal USFWE.... Rules/tests USAWEA...Membership ERAHC... Show Org.

W.E. Second Phase "Ease Of Handling" (EOH) On Labor day weekend 2013 Carbon and I had the opportunity to drive up to Lexington Virginia from North Carolina to attend the Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club's (ERAHC) annual Classic horse breed show. You may ask why would I take a Quarter Horse to an Andalusian breed show? The answer is simple, to compete in Working Equitation. Right now, WE is relatively a new sport here in the USA and most participants are Iberian horse breed shows. Yes, Carbon and I enjoyed riding with all those fancy Iberian horses. We are very thankful that this was an open opportunity class, meaning any type of breed was welcome to come and play WE. As you can see in the video below, this is the second phase (EOH) of Working Equitation. If you missed the first phase (Dressage), here is the link to see the video. What attracted me to this new sport, is that this is the practical application of Western Dressage. This is the whole reason we do this. I find that a lot of Dressage folks forget why Classical training was first used. WE was founded on Classical principles which requires riding one handed to use the free hand to work cows or fight wars. Western Dressage was based on the same principles of teaching a western ranch horse to be guided by one hand while performing ranch duties. WE is the European equivalent of an American working ranch horse. If you are now doing Western Dressage, this is the next step in your evolution. On a side note, we had the opportunity meet the president of the World Association of Working Equitation (WAWE) from Portugal "Joao Ralao Durarte". What a great learning opportunity and treat that was.. Keep your eye out for obstacle #3 "livestock pen" Carbon was not sure about that little toy horse sitting in there. You will see him give the toy horse the eye. Note: None of the horses had ever seen these obstacles until they entered the arena. Remember that this is the second of three phases in Working Equitation; so keep an eye out for the last one (Speed). This test was level 4 under USFWE rules and test. If you are unfamiliar with Working Equitation, Here is a link to a little more information about WE. We would like to give a special thanks to Carol Havelka...

W.E. Third Phase "Speed" On Labor day weekend 2013 Carbon and I had the opportunity to drive up to Lexington Virginia from North Carolina to attend the Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club's (ERAHC) annual Classic horse breed show. You may ask why would I take a Quarter Horse to an Andalusian breed show? The answer is simple, to compete in Working Equitation. Right now, WE is relatively a new sport here in the USA and most participants are Iberian horse breed shows. Yes, Carbon and I enjoyed riding with all those fancy Iberian horses. We are very thankful that ERAHC and USFWE made these classes open opportunity classes, meaning any type of breed was welcome to come and play WE. As you can see in the video below, this is the third phase (SPEED) of Working Equitation. If you missed the first phase (Dressage), here is the link to see the video. Here is the link to the second phase (EOH) if you missed that one too.. What attracted me to this new sport, is that this is the practical application of Western Dressage. This is the whole reason we do this. I find that a lot of Dressage folks forget why Classical training was first used.

WE is the European equivalent of an American working ranch horse. If you are now doing Western Dressage, this is the next step in your evolution. If you are not familiar with WE speed test, it is a simple concept. Unlike the other previous phases, you are not scored on correct or proper movement. It is 100% on the clock. The fastest time with the fewest penalties is the winner of this phase. You may notice in this video that speed is not Carbon's strongest phase, but still pulled the fastest time. This was only Carbon's second WE show and he had some issues with picking up the correct lead after the jump. On a side note, we had the opportunity in meeting the president of the World Association of Working Equitation (WAWE) from Portugal "Joao Ralao Durarte". What a great learning opportunity that was. As in most of my videos, this is an educational video. We hope this will inspire you to improve your horsemanship and come and play WE with us..
