This week on The Show, we sit down with Taylor Sheridan — creator of Yellowstone and one of the most influential voices in modern western culture.
The guys talk to Taylor about how he got his start in the horse industry, his path into acting and writing, and what it actually took to get projects like Yellowstone, 1883, and 1923 picked up. The conversation dives into the realities of the entertainment industry, what his day-to-day life looks like now, and what he’s currently working on.
We also discuss his involvement in the western and performance horse industries through his own ranch, Bosque Ranch, along with his involvement in the ownership of the historic 6666 Ranch. From there, the conversation turns to the origins of The Run For A Million, the upcoming TRFAM qualifier, and the continued growth of the reining industry.
Throughout the episode, the guys talk about increasing visibility for the performance horse world, making it more of a spectator sport, and what that kind of growth could mean for the industry moving forward. Taylor also shares insight into his business ventures, including his ownership of Cattlemen’s Steakhouse in Fort Worth, as well as the bigger vision behind everything he’s building.
A big part of that vision is authenticity — preserving the western way of life and making sure what’s shown on screen reflects the real world. As Taylor puts it, nothing is accidental, and that attention to detail shows up in everything he does.
Plus, we get into Tom & Cade’s experience on Yellowstone and how moments like that are helping bring more recognition to the western lifestyle and horse industry.
A big thank you to Taylor for joining us — we appreciate him taking the time to sit down and share his perspective.
