    The Protector Culture Podcast with Jimmy Graham Ep. 103: Utah BDR

    At Able Shepherd we believe that adventure is at the heart of every man, woman and child. Over the last couple years men, women and children through Able Shepherd have participated in several BDR's (Backcountry Discovery Routes) which are routes designed for adventure motorcycle riding. This year they took on the Utah BDR and were met with one incident after another, but ended with the same results as previous...coming back a better version of themselves!

    The Protector Culture Podcast with Jimmy Graham Ep. 101: WAKE UP DOUGLAS COUNTY

    Over the last couple months Able Shepherd was under attack for having members of the community protesting a Drag Show in Castle Rock. The protest was not an Able Shepherd organized or sanctioned event. It was men and women who share the same desire to protect their community! Following the event there was a meeting, in this video Jimmy and BK look at this meeting and give context to the conversation.
