This week on Tom McCutcheon's The Show, we're joined by none other than Todd Bergen—an NRHA 2 Million Dollar Rider and NRCHA 2 Million Dollar Rider. If you've been around the reining or cow horse world, you know Todd's no stranger to the winner's circle. He's a true legend, and we've got plenty of stories to prove it.Todd's been around long enough that he's got a history with the guys, so we had a lot to talk about. We take a trip down memory lane, chatting about old show runs, why Todd switched to just cow horse, and the tricky art of adjusting your ride for different arenas. Oh, and we had to bring up the time Todd definitely overworked Cade on his first day working for him—good thing Cade's tough.But it's not all just old stories. Todd opens up about moving from Oregon to Texas a few years ago and how it's made a huge difference for both him and his horses. And for anyone wondering why Todd's all in on cow horse now—he talks about how the variety keeps things fresh and fun, especially after feeling a little burnt out from reining.Oh, and we can't forget Gunny's man crush on Todd (sorry, Gunny)—there's definitely some teasing involved.It's a fun, laid-back episode with lots of laughs and great insight from one of the best in the business. You're going to want to hear this one!
