Yeehaw! Cowbow Talk with Texas Slim Texas Slim

Yeehaw. Okay, round two.

 I'm sitting here in the world headquarters of the Beef Initiative and the I Am Texas Slim Foundation.
Ranchers Storefront 
1505 4th Ave
Canyon, Texas 79015

And you know what I'm looking at? 

I'm looking at some catastrophic winds. Some of those winds just blew through here in the Texas Panhandle and we're in the middle of the latest disastaster and of the recovery and relief efforts.

And I’m here to tell you everybody is shining brightly because, you know why? It’s not because we’re so damn wind blown, it’s because…

Because we are from the Texas Panhandle, we are from a pioneering spirit that gives us this voice and this stance. It gives us this fortitude and it allows me to be very proud from where I come from. Those catastrophic winds that I'm talking about are happening across this nation and in many different ways.


It's coming in the form of spiritual bankruptcy, financial bankruptcy, nutritional bankruptcy and a lack of clear communication.

And here we are. Listening to this ole “Cowboy Talk.” 

Well, this cowboy talk has seen these winds blow through more than once. And folks, I'm here to tell you…
Ya’ll remember the last article and I brought up Justin Trammell of Panhandle Meats and my partner here at Rancher’s Storefront. 

Well, he ain't much of a talker until you get him a talkin. 

The one thing that gets him a talking….

Do you know what? 

Well, there is not just one storefront, there are actually 3 and they all are possible because of the Micro-processing center he and the Trammel family built and brought to market.

The WHOLE dang Trammell family.
-Trammell Cattle
-Panhandle Meats
-Tir Bluen
-Ranchers Storefront

Do you see how much of a whirlwind that is? 

They are on top of it. And I'm very proud to be able to be right there in the middle of it all and to be their sidekick.

Especially Justin’s sidekick.

He of course is the first person I shook hands with and who I asked to go on this journey with me. It was right when I got off harvest. I was in the middle of writing the Harvest of Deception. 

I’m going to ask yourself to ask yourself a question or two... or three…

How many times do we actually hear from other people? 

How often does someone ask if they can have a word with you?

How many times in real life does someone come up to you and reach out to shake your hand and ask you - “Would you please tell me what you do and why you do it?”

Lately, when I've gone out to the burn zone and I've come across these ranchers, I can tell they have been taxed to the limit. They have a little confusion, they're a little bit suspect of this ole boy, Texas Slim.

What I'm really asking everybody to do is to just… just take a pause.

Because we're not selling anything here, folks. 

What we're trying to do is we're trying to serve. “Servant Leadership!”

Everything I've ever done in my lifetime, and especially, ever since I started the Beef Initiative is that I've been able to reflect upon myself and those in which I have served and who have served me. 

It takes two folks. 

Many times in this life, a lot of people do not know how to receive. Therefore, we know how to take.

A lot of people do not know how to give, they know how to serve.

Many people don't know how to receive because all they do is take.

When you know how to serve, you know how to receive.

To receive is to serve and to serve is to receive. There's something I jotted down years ago and I'll be the first to admit. It was something that I'd written down because I needed to receive a part of me that was lost.

I want to share it here:. 

“When people are asleep their spirits wander off. When they are awake, their bodies are like an open door, so that everything they touch becomes an entanglement. 

Day after day they used their minds to stir up trouble. They become both swords. 

Sneaky & Secretive. 

They are consumed with anxiety over trivial matters but r

Texas Slim makes a spirited return to broadcasting with his brand-new series, "Yeehaw! Cowboy Talk." This series promises a mix of heartfelt, random musings with a healthy dose of sarcasm and that distinctive West Texas Dirt Road Twang. Slim plans to share tales of his adventures and insights, offering a glimpse into his life, his beginnings, and his clear vision for the future. As someone who's traveled extensively, covering 160k miles across three continents and circling the globe 1.5 times in less than three years, he brings a wealth of experience and stories, especially from his quest for global #BeefIntelligence.
Slim is setting the stage for a modern-day, local and global cattle drive, calling on listeners to gear up for some "catastrophic winds" ahead. He hints at exciting, challenging times, urging his audience to embrace integrity and focus, drawing parallels between life's trials and the journey of a professional team roper learning the ropes. Highlighting the foundational spirit of the American Cowboy, Slim shares anecdotes of camaraderie and resilience, from East Texas's distinct accent to the humorous and sometimes perilous cowboy life, including his own air-lifting adventure across the southern Rockies.
Announcing a grand vision for a "Worldwide #BeefIntelligence Kingdom Series" dubbed the new International Lifestyle, Slim intertwines his personal adventures with broader themes of market access, spirit, and freedom. He passionately speaks about combating what he sees as threats to children's innocence and the "Harvest of Deception," signaling a bold stance against undisclosed adversaries. With a nod to his roots and the "True Grit" instilled by his West Texas upbringing, Slim is poised to embark on a mission filled with purpose and determination.
In addition to his storytelling, Slim plans to share "Slimisms" and his love for West Texas Red Dirt music, giving shoutouts to local talents like Randall King and their shared dirt road heritage.
Stay tuned for "Yeehaw! Cowboy Talk" for a blend of tales, insights, and music from the heart of Texas, as told by Texas Slim himself.

Hey, I miss ya’ll….I’m back~

At least as far as doing that hippy-punk-cowboy kinda talkin….dang do I have some stories to share.

This new series that I am calling “Yeehaw - Hippy-punk-cowboy talk” is going to be random, it’s going to come from the heart, and it will have some sarcasm and a little West Texas Dirt Road Twang to it. 

I’ve been to a few places and I’ve done a few things throughout my  lifetime and now it’s time to give you some perspective of who this ole boy is, the vision I had in the beginning and the very clear vision I currently have. 

And we’re all going to move forward together….time to step up and focus in on the true art of story tellin.

I’ll tell ya one thing, it’s time to pull the trigger folks! 

A train wreck is coming but don’t go frettin…we built out a new rail system and the rail transition is ready to go. We’ve tested and have the results to prove it.

I’ll be tellin' ya’ll stories of my life, which started out by me looking up at the sky. 

I come from the “Llano Estacado,” the “Dessert High Plains” a place that is referred to as the “Caprock” and the land of the Comanches, “Comancheria”. 

THE Texas Panhandle! 

THE World Headquarters of the Beef Initiative and the I Am Texas Slim Foundation.

And boy howdy has it been one hell of a ride. 160k miles driven, 3 continents explored, 1.5 trips around the globe all on the quest for the most fascinating journey and exploration of global #BeefIntelligence the the world has ever had….and all that done in less than 3 years….you should hear about the prior 40 before that…

Oh, and btw it's just getting started so, let’s all pay attention and get a new “Yeehaw” swagger that is ready to scream across the world. 

We are about to start the next local and global modern-day cattle dri

In Episode 27, "Servant Leaders," Texas Slim discusses his relationship with four distinct individuals, each bringing a unique perspective to the table.
Dr. Brooke Miller, a family physician and cattle rancher, discusses the challenges faced by the ranching industry, particularly the monopolistic control of the Big Four packing companies. He emphasizes the importance of breaking up these monopolies and leveling the playing field for ranchers. Dr. Miller also talks about the Beef Initiative's role in educating consumers about the health benefits of beef and the sustainable practices of ranching.

Chris Watkins, a football coach at West Texas A&M University, shares his philosophy of servant leadership. He believes in leading with authenticity and service, rather than ego. He discusses his journey towards health and how he came across Texas Slim and the Beef Initiative through social media. Chris sees his role in the Beef Initiative as a way to introduce his players and the communities he works in to local farmers and ranchers.

Justin Trammell talks about his processing center and the importance of local food systems. He explains the difference between small and large processors in terms of volume and quality. Justin also shares how he met Texas Slim and his involvement in the Beef Initiative.  Clyde Sommerlatte, a seasoned cattle rancher with over 70 years of experience. Clyde shares his journey, starting from his first calf at the age of seven, to running a commercial cattle business, and eventually moving to the Angus breed. He discusses the importance of responsibility, a value instilled in him by his grandfather, and how he has passed this on to his son.
Overall, the episode emphasizes the importance of community, local food systems, and servant leadership in creating a sustainable and healthy future.  Links:  TBIAC.org https://2barc.com/ https://www.gingerhillangus.com/ https://gobuffsgo.com/sports/football

"The Cowboys History of the Internet" by Texas Slim, provides an in-depth exploration of the evolution of the internet from its inception to the present day. He shares his personal journey from being a cowboy in West Texas to becoming a tech-savvy individual in Austin, Texas. He discusses the early days of the internet, which was primarily text-based and open-sourced, and how it has transformed into a multimedia platform that is largely controlled by big tech companies.
Slim emphasizes the importance of understanding the internet's layered structure, from the foundational protocols like TCP/IP and DNS to the surface-level interfaces we interact with today. He laments the loss of the internet's initial vision of free information exchange and criticizes the centralization and control exerted by tech giants. He also highlights how the internet has impacted our attention spans and behaviors, particularly through social media platforms.
The podcast also delves into the intersection of the internet and the beef industry. Slim explains how the internet has influenced the industry, from selling products online to the centralization of commerce and banking. He introduces the Beef Initiative, a project aimed at pivoting away from the third layer of the internet and providing an umbrella of protection, marketing, and intelligence for the beef industry.
In conclusion, "The Cowboys History of the Internet" is a thought-provoking exploration of the internet's evolution, its impact on society and specific industries, and the need for a return to its decentralized, open-source roots.
