On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors podcast, Sheldon sits down with Brett Gardiner, the 13-time Rodeo Announcer of the Year and one of the most recognized voices in Canadian rodeo. Brett shares his journey from the early days in the arena to becoming a key figure in the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) circuit. Together, they dive into the heart of rodeo culture, discussing the western lifestyle, the energy of live events, and the powerful sense of community that surrounds the sport. Beyond the spotlight, Brett opens up about the importance of men’s mental health—particularly in high-pressure, rural, and performance-driven environments. He and Sheldon explore how the cowboy way of life encourages strength, but also how it must evolve to support vulnerability, wellness, and connection. This episode is a powerful look at the people, stories, and values that keep the western tradition alive, on and off the dirt.   Thank you to our sponsors: https://www.ihunterapp.com/  https://www.heightsoutdoors.com/  https://orvsappliance.com/ https://www.redneckhuntingcanada.com/
