1
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.

2
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,919
My Martin and you are listening to Dad's Bedtime Stories,

3
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,879
the podcast that takes the listener ideas and turns them

4
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:23,679
into bedtime stories. Tonight, we're headed back into my Spaceship universe,

5
00:00:24,039 --> 00:00:27,280
and if you've never listened before, it's honestly totally fine,

6
00:00:27,679 --> 00:00:30,160
because all you really need to know is that you're

7
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,159
a kid who has a magic spaceship and it takes

8
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,520
you to different planets and stuff, and it can kind

9
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,280
of do pretty much anything I imagine or you imagine

10
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,600
it can do. So let's check out the idea for

11
00:00:41,679 --> 00:00:43,240
today and get going.

12
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,399
Speaker 2: Hello, my name is Silas, and I would like to

13
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:54,079
suggest a rodeo planet where you aren't actually competing in

14
00:00:54,119 --> 00:00:58,679
a rodeo and all that. You're just trying all the

15
00:00:58,799 --> 00:01:04,920
events and seeing how they are. And there's different jobs

16
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:08,239
for the event where you can just make the show

17
00:01:08,599 --> 00:01:14,519
for showing all the people at your event. And you

18
00:01:14,599 --> 00:01:17,920
found a guy who can teach all sorts of events.

19
00:01:18,519 --> 00:01:23,480
He teaches you all the events, and then you want

20
00:01:23,519 --> 00:01:29,599
to customize your own event, so you create an event

21
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,239
that's kind of like bull riding, and then you have

22
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,760
to ride the bull, except when you get off the ball,

23
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:41,000
you have to try to wrestle the bull, and then

24
00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:43,200
you have to get onto your horse, and then you

25
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,000
has to last of the bull. Thank you, I love

26
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:46,920
your podcast.

27
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: Bye well, Silas great idea. I gotta be honest, I

28
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:55,159
thought it was a bit familiar, so I checked to

29
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,519
see if I've ever done a rodeo planet before, and

30
00:01:58,599 --> 00:02:04,079
the answer is sort of. I did a Cowboy planet

31
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,200
where there was a rodeo that happened on it. And

32
00:02:07,239 --> 00:02:08,599
I don't know if you guys have listened to that

33
00:02:08,719 --> 00:02:11,319
or not, but if you like rodeos, it's another one

34
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,039
to listen to. I guess we'll make this one different

35
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:16,680
and make it a full out rodeo planet, like a

36
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,479
rodeo only planet or something like that. And I think

37
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,639
the biggest challenge in this story is going to be

38
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,680
that event at the end where you have to wrestle

39
00:02:26,759 --> 00:02:30,319
a bull, because I don't think that's a thing. I

40
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,960
don't think that's a thing anyways that people really do.

41
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,280
Do people wrestle bulls? Can somebody let me know in

42
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:40,719
the comment somewhere if people actually wrestle bulls. I know

43
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,080
people like stand in front of them, and you know,

44
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,879
try not to get hit by them and stuff, and

45
00:02:46,039 --> 00:02:49,120
you know, wave little pieces of cloth and that sort

46
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:52,199
of thing. But I've never seen somebody wrestle a bull.

47
00:02:52,479 --> 00:02:54,159
So this is gonna be a fun one to make,

48
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,280
and I'm gonna have to come up with reasons why

49
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:01,360
that happens, and hopefully I can do that before we begin,

50
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:03,759
just a big shout out to everyone who's rating and

51
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,120
reviewing the podcast. It really goes a long way. Ratings

52
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:12,000
and reviews matter a ton on Apple especially, they matter

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,759
a lot on Spotify and everywhere else. They kind of

54
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,800
have their own rating systems, and I assume they matter

55
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,360
to some extent. So thank you for writing me those

56
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:24,080
ratings and reviews. I don't necessarily get to read every

57
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,639
single one because only once for my country kind of

58
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,000
show up for me to read, if that makes any sense.

59
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,560
But I can tell that people have been putting new

60
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,759
ones in, and thank you, thank you, thank you. Also,

61
00:03:36,039 --> 00:03:39,639
I know a lot of you don't like ads, and

62
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:41,960
that's why I try to make it as affordable as

63
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,560
possible to be able to join Patreon and get the

64
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:48,199
episodes ad free for as little as one dollar a month,

65
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,319
and you can even pay upfront for the year. Twelve

66
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,280
dollars for an entire year. Honestly, not that expensive in

67
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,039
the scheme of things, I hope. But if you don't

68
00:03:57,039 --> 00:04:00,080
feel like doing that, that's totally fine because ads help too,

69
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:05,319
just like this possible ad from a possible sponsor. Now

70
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,719
it's time to close your eyes, get as comfy as

71
00:04:08,759 --> 00:04:13,520
you can wherever you are, and imagine yourself doing what

72
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:19,279
the kid in the story does. You wake up on

73
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:26,639
spaceship as you usually do. Good morning, sunshine, spaceship says,

74
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,800
good Bordic spaceship. Where are we headed today? That is

75
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:38,839
an excellent question. I have recently discovered a planet where

76
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:44,759
the inhabitants enjoy rodeo. You mean, like the cowboy planet

77
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,519
that we've been to before, you ask somewhat. However, this

78
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,120
planet does not focus on being a cow person. Instead,

79
00:04:56,639 --> 00:05:02,879
it focuses almost entirely on Well, I guess that does

80
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,199
sound pretty cool, and well it would give me out

81
00:05:06,199 --> 00:05:11,360
of the spaceship. Set a course, you say, moving up

82
00:05:11,399 --> 00:05:15,720
towards the control panel. I thought you would say that,

83
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,319
spaceship replies as such, I have taken the liberty to

84
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,800
already set a course for the planet. We will be arriving. Now,

85
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,040
the ship stops and you find yourself floating over top

86
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:37,360
of a beautiful, blue, green, and somewhat dusty looking planet below.

87
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:40,959
You sit down in the control seat and take a

88
00:05:40,959 --> 00:05:45,519
hold of the controls, pressing forward on the throttle and

89
00:05:45,639 --> 00:05:51,519
aiming straight into the planet. You watch as flames appear

90
00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:56,319
around the ship as you pass through the atmosphere. Then,

91
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,639
as the ship cools off, you dip below the clouds

92
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,399
and sort of even the thing out over top of

93
00:06:04,439 --> 00:06:10,040
the landscape. Looking out the window below, all you see

94
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:16,079
are fields and fields of crops and free roaming animals,

95
00:06:16,759 --> 00:06:22,639
and a whole bunch of large stadiums that are sort

96
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:29,399
of well everywhere. Oh what are those huge buildings, you ask?

97
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:35,720
I believe those are rodeo arenas. Each town seems to

98
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:43,560
have their own. As I said, rodeo is very popular here. Well,

99
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,240
which one should we head to? That is an excellent question.

100
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:53,439
When in doubt, I suggest heading to the largest arena

101
00:06:53,639 --> 00:06:59,160
we can find. I believe the largest one is located here.

102
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,680
A map appears on the screen with a little glowing

103
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,279
dot and another dot indicating where you are in relation

104
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,560
to it. You steer the ship slightly to the right

105
00:07:12,759 --> 00:07:16,000
to make sure you're headed towards the dot on the map,

106
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:21,759
and soon you see the gigantic rodeo stadium in front

107
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:24,920
of you. It has a big sign above it that

108
00:07:25,079 --> 00:07:30,800
says Rodeo. You're surprised that the sign is written in English,

109
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:34,959
but you just shrug that off as you land as

110
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:40,600
close as you possibly can. Very good, Spaceship, says now,

111
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:46,519
I suggest wearing an appropriate disguise. I have replicated one

112
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:52,480
for you. A hand well, a large mechanical hand shoots

113
00:07:52,519 --> 00:07:56,879
out of the wall carrying what looks like a Hella

114
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:03,040
cowboy outfit check an old time he suret a cowboy

115
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,040
hat and those little things that go on the back

116
00:08:07,079 --> 00:08:13,000
of your boots spurs. You quickly take the clothing, put

117
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,199
it on as fast as you can, and look at

118
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,199
yourself in a mirror at the side of the ship.

119
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:26,600
You look like a real rodeo rider. Very good. Now,

120
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,680
why don't you bring Changer out for a little bit

121
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:37,600
of fun. Perhaps he would enjoy becoming your horse or bull. Changer,

122
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,720
excited to hear his name, jumps up off of the couch,

123
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:47,720
walks over to you, and starts to stretch outward. His

124
00:08:47,879 --> 00:08:54,720
body ripples and reforms itself, growing larger and larger into

125
00:08:54,759 --> 00:09:02,000
a large and very fast looking horse, black with white

126
00:09:02,039 --> 00:09:07,200
hair for some reason, and already equipped with a saddle. Somehow.

127
00:09:08,159 --> 00:09:11,679
You've never been sure how Changer makes things like saddles,

128
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:17,240
but well, if only he could talk. You quickly put

129
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,200
one foot inside the stirrup and lift your body over

130
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,519
top of the horse. You grab a hold of the

131
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:30,559
reins and give Changer a gentle little nudge. The back

132
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:34,799
hatch of the spaceship opens up, and you and Changer

133
00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:40,519
trod down and onto the rodeo planet. Just outside the

134
00:09:40,639 --> 00:09:46,320
Gigantic stadium, you see other people riding at top horses

135
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:51,320
and well even bulls for some reason, and you decide

136
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:56,080
to follow them. You slowly walk after them as they

137
00:09:56,279 --> 00:10:00,840
enter inside the stadium and move over or awards what

138
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,639
look like registration tables. When you finally get to the

139
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,480
front of the line, the person holding a clipboard and

140
00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:14,080
sitting at the table looks at you. All right, then,

141
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:22,639
are you here for the Rodeo Experience program? He asks, Uh? Yes,

142
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:28,679
You answer very good. Well, just to be sure, this

143
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:33,279
here is a waiver signing. This here waiver here by

144
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,320
declares that you will in no way, hold this rodeo

145
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:42,720
company responsible for any and all accidents, including and up

146
00:10:42,759 --> 00:10:46,679
to accidents caused by pure negligence on our part. You

147
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:50,960
also hereby understand that rodeo is dangerous business and can

148
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,879
result in many injuries, up to and including you becoming unlived.

149
00:10:56,799 --> 00:10:59,480
You think for a minute, and then you decide to

150
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:03,080
sign the After all, you don't even live on this planet,

151
00:11:03,159 --> 00:11:07,559
so it's unlikely that any illegal action would be possible anyways.

152
00:11:09,039 --> 00:11:12,039
All right, then we will hereby present you with your

153
00:11:12,159 --> 00:11:15,440
very own rodeo assistant, who will run you through some

154
00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:19,759
of the different rodeo tasks and events, getting you ready

155
00:11:20,039 --> 00:11:24,080
for the final performance, where you will be able to

156
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:29,320
construct your very own rodeo event or mix of rodeo

157
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:36,120
events to attempt to will essentially entertain the audience. The

158
00:11:36,279 --> 00:11:44,240
most entertaining participant will win the trophy. Oh okay, here,

159
00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:50,840
this here is Silas. He will be your rodeo coordinator. Well,

160
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,559
it's nice to meet you. Another guy wearing a cowboy

161
00:11:55,679 --> 00:12:00,759
uniform says he reaches out to shake your hand. You

162
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,600
lean down off of changer your horse and shake his

163
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,360
All right, Well, the first thing we're going to learn

164
00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:17,000
to do is obviously to ride a bucking bronco. Follow me,

165
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:23,120
You follow Silas over to wards a large arena surrounded

166
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:28,720
by a fence and lined with dirt. Inside the arena,

167
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,120
you watch as a person attempts to hold on to

168
00:12:32,279 --> 00:12:37,200
a horse that's kind of going crazy, jumping up and down,

169
00:12:37,399 --> 00:12:41,320
kicking its legs backward and doing its best to throw

170
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:48,080
the rider off. And well it's fully successful. You watch

171
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,919
as one of the other contestants flies up through the

172
00:12:51,039 --> 00:12:57,879
air and lands flat on his back on the ground. Oh,

173
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:03,960
he says, luckily for you. You've done some rodeo before,

174
00:13:04,159 --> 00:13:07,440
only your memory of it is starting to get a

175
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:15,559
little bit fuzzy. Spaceship, you say, yes, Spaceship answers through

176
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:23,240
your watch. Remember how you sometimes download memories into my

177
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:29,360
head about things like rodeo and stuff. Yes, would you

178
00:13:29,799 --> 00:13:33,799
like me to give you a little refresher on rodeo

179
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:43,559
techniques and strategies, Spaceship asks, yes, please, initializing Now, a

180
00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:48,799
strange electrical feeling passes through your wrist and directly into

181
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:54,440
your mind. In an instant, memories start to flood through

182
00:13:54,519 --> 00:14:00,320
your brain. Memories of riding bucking broncos, how to sit,

183
00:14:00,919 --> 00:14:05,600
how to counteract, the movement, and generally how to stay on,

184
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:13,240
memories of riding bulls, memories of roping different animals with

185
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:18,519
a last u of sorts, memories of barrel racing, and

186
00:14:18,639 --> 00:14:25,759
all sorts of other race related events. Until the memories stop.

187
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,360
You open your eyes and look at Silas. Ugh, are

188
00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:37,519
you okay there, young one? Silas asks, uh, yeah, I

189
00:14:37,559 --> 00:14:41,320
was just trying to remember how to ride one of

190
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:46,120
these things. I think I've done it before. Oh so

191
00:14:46,399 --> 00:14:51,679
you're experienced, are you? Well? Then why don't we put

192
00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:56,360
you on one of the craziest horses we have. We

193
00:14:56,519 --> 00:15:03,679
named it Crazy Horse. Oh okay. You climb off of

194
00:15:03,919 --> 00:15:06,639
changer and give them a little pad on the back.

195
00:15:07,279 --> 00:15:11,240
Then you walk over to the horse that Silas called

196
00:15:11,879 --> 00:15:17,080
crazy horse. All right, now, he's safe in this here cage.

197
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,399
What you're gonna do is jump up on top, grab

198
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,200
onto this here rope. Then we'll open the gate and

199
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:28,200
you have to stay on. Normally you would train you

200
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:31,440
on one of them mechanical deals. But since you say

201
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,840
you've done this before, man, he's on the waiver that

202
00:15:34,919 --> 00:15:38,000
doesn't know does responsible if something goes wrong here? We're

203
00:15:38,039 --> 00:15:42,799
going to start you off with this thing, all right,

204
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,600
you say, reluctantly. Climbing up over top of the fence.

205
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:53,000
You swing your leg around the horse, grip the rope

206
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:56,639
as tightly as you can, and hold on to your

207
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:02,600
hat with your other hand, almost actively ball right there.

208
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:08,799
Three to one go. Silas pulls the gate open and

209
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:14,799
you blast forward atop your horse. And well, they weren't

210
00:16:14,919 --> 00:16:18,840
lying when they said this horse was crazy. It begins

211
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,080
jumping up in the air, spinning around on its front legs,

212
00:16:23,559 --> 00:16:26,960
kicking its back legs up as violently as it can.

213
00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:32,840
But somehow your body knows exactly how to react. You

214
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,159
move with the movement of the horse, and you stay

215
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,799
on as it spins around, jumps around, kicks up, and

216
00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:48,840
eventually just sort of gets tired. Well, then that is

217
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,320
pretty amazing. I don't think even some of the best

218
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:59,000
riders have stayed on crazy horse. Silas says, now you're

219
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,399
gonna want to jump boff and run over to the

220
00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:05,559
side as quickly as you can. He's looking pretty tired,

221
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:11,000
but well he might want his revenge or something. You

222
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:14,720
look down at the horse and then quickly swing your

223
00:17:14,799 --> 00:17:17,960
leg over the side, land on the dirt and run

224
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:21,799
for the edge. You quickly leap over the fence and

225
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,160
look back at the horse, who's still just standing there.

226
00:17:26,319 --> 00:17:30,880
All right, Well, since you can, you know, take on

227
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:35,759
the crazy horse, I say we move on to a bull.

228
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,519
You walk over to an area off to the right.

229
00:17:41,279 --> 00:17:46,000
It leads into the same general arena, but this one

230
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,039
is full of a whole bunch of different, very mean

231
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:55,240
looking bulls. The idea hears the same. And since you

232
00:17:55,319 --> 00:17:58,240
were okay on that there, Bronco, I don't think you'll

233
00:17:58,279 --> 00:18:02,160
have any trouble here. Just swing your leg over the

234
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:07,359
side and hold on for dear laugh. You're feeling a

235
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:12,599
lot more confident now after surviving crazy Horse, so you

236
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,680
immediately climb up over the fence, jump on top of

237
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:21,319
the bull, and slide your hand under the rope. You

238
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,799
grab your hat with your other hand and nod that

239
00:18:24,839 --> 00:18:29,960
you're ready again. Silas pulls the gate open, and the

240
00:18:30,079 --> 00:18:34,680
bull rushes forward as if it's angry. For some reason

241
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:39,960
nobody can explain. It starts running around the arena in circles,

242
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,799
spinning around on its front legs, and just generally jumping

243
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,680
up and down, doing its very best to whip you

244
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:53,039
off of the top. You react, as you did with

245
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,319
the other one, moving with the bull, holding on as

246
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,799
tight as you can, and pretty soon a buzzer rings.

247
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:07,839
Good job you made it, Silas says, Uh, the bull

248
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:12,000
doesn't seem to be getting tired, you yelled back, Oh, no,

249
00:19:12,799 --> 00:19:16,799
bulls can do this forever. You're gonna want to jump

250
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:21,160
off nice and calmly and run over to the side,

251
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,240
he explains. You try to time your jump the best

252
00:19:26,319 --> 00:19:30,359
you can. The next time the bull bucks up, you

253
00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:33,960
let go of the rope and fly over to the side.

254
00:19:34,599 --> 00:19:37,480
You land on the ground, run for the side of

255
00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:43,559
the arena, and hop back over top of it. All right, well,

256
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,480
I guess we can move on to some of the

257
00:19:45,519 --> 00:19:50,240
other events. We haven't gotten to this part too often lately.

258
00:19:51,279 --> 00:19:52,960
Well what do you mean you haven't gotten to this

259
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:58,079
part too often lately? You ask? Oh, well, we kind

260
00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:01,240
of start with the broncos in the bulls because most

261
00:20:01,279 --> 00:20:03,920
people end up getting injured and then we don't have

262
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,960
to do anything else. To be honest with you, but

263
00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:13,160
you somehow survived, so well here we go. Next up,

264
00:20:13,279 --> 00:20:17,039
I guess is barrel racing. You can bring your own

265
00:20:17,039 --> 00:20:20,440
horse for this one if you want to. You move

266
00:20:20,519 --> 00:20:24,480
over and grab a hold of changers reins you pull

267
00:20:24,519 --> 00:20:27,759
it over to the next arena, where there's a whole

268
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:33,319
bunch of barrels set up in a little formation. All right, Well,

269
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:38,839
generally your idea here is to race around the barrels,

270
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,319
turn as tightly as you can, and kind of move

271
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,119
from one to the other. Here, I'll show you how

272
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:51,880
it's done. Silas climbs on top of another horse. Then

273
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:55,759
he gives the horse a little kick, and it races

274
00:20:55,839 --> 00:20:59,519
towards one of the barrels. He turns it tightly in

275
00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:03,480
a sort of figure eight pattern, and rushes back towards

276
00:21:03,519 --> 00:21:08,039
another barrel, where he again turns it incredibly tightly and

277
00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:14,000
continues this pattern back and forth through the arena. Then

278
00:21:14,319 --> 00:21:18,799
he rides back over to you. Well, see that's sort

279
00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:22,240
of how it's done. Well, let's see if you can

280
00:21:22,319 --> 00:21:27,039
beat my time. Changer looks over to you and sort

281
00:21:27,039 --> 00:21:31,200
of winks as if beating this guy's time is going

282
00:21:31,279 --> 00:21:34,519
to be no problem at all. You put your foot

283
00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:38,960
in the stirrup, climb back on top of your trusty horse,

284
00:21:39,839 --> 00:21:45,599
and wait until Silas gives you the go ahead. Three two,

285
00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:51,160
one go, he says. You kick Changer and begin rushing

286
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,720
towards the barrel's changer does most of the work this time.

287
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,279
You just try to hang on for dear life as

288
00:21:59,319 --> 00:22:03,400
he races around the barrel straight towards the other one

289
00:22:04,079 --> 00:22:09,039
at a speed that would impress a cheetah. You finish

290
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,359
the barrel race and walk back up to Silas, who

291
00:22:12,759 --> 00:22:16,160
clicks the stop watch and stares at you in amazement.

292
00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:23,880
That was that was amazing, he says, I've never seen

293
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:30,319
a horse move that fast. Cool. You say, huh, what's next?

294
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:31,519
Speaker 2: Ugh?

295
00:22:31,839 --> 00:22:35,559
Speaker 1: Right, well, I guess next we should probably learn to

296
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:40,279
use a lass. So he hands you a rope tight

297
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:45,160
in a perfect glass suit. All right, so to use

298
00:22:45,279 --> 00:22:49,200
one of these, what you're gonna need to do is well,

299
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,880
he continues to talk. You swing the rope around over

300
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,920
your head and throw it out towards a poll with

301
00:22:57,079 --> 00:23:01,759
the lands directly on it, and you pull it tight. Oh,

302
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,880
I see you've already done this before, too. Well, then, huh,

303
00:23:07,079 --> 00:23:10,359
let's try it from atop the horse. We got some

304
00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:14,079
sheep we're gonna let loose. What you have to do

305
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,799
is rope the sheep, get off the horse, and tie

306
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,559
the sheep up on the ground. All right, let's give

307
00:23:21,599 --> 00:23:26,480
it a try. You ride into the arena besides, Silas

308
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,920
with your last sue in hand, a buzzer rings, a

309
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:36,359
door opens, and several little sheep run in, spinning around

310
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:41,000
you very quickly. You set your sights on one of them,

311
00:23:41,559 --> 00:23:45,400
lift the rope up, begin to twirl it around, and

312
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,519
at what feels like just the right moment, you throw

313
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:54,359
the rope and release. The little hoop slides over towards

314
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,000
the sheep, lands around its neck, and you pull it tight.

315
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:03,880
The sheep falls to the ground. As you dismount the horse,

316
00:24:04,319 --> 00:24:08,279
run over beside it and tie up its feet, as

317
00:24:08,319 --> 00:24:12,880
you learn to do inside your memories, Silas does the

318
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:18,279
same to another sheep, and then moves back over towards you. Well,

319
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:24,319
it looks like you're pretty good at this. Thanks. Uh,

320
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:29,880
what's next? You ask? Well, I guess the last event

321
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:38,200
is bull wrestling? Bull wrestling? You answer? Is that actually

322
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,480
a thing? Well, of course it's a thing. Who wouldn't

323
00:24:42,519 --> 00:24:45,759
want to see a grown person wrestle a bull to

324
00:24:45,799 --> 00:24:52,480
the ground? Is it dangerous? You ask for the bull

325
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:58,759
or for the human wrestling it? Silas asks for the human.

326
00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:04,839
Oh yeah, very dangerous. For the human, bulls got nothing

327
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,440
to worry about, But you could very well become unaliveed.

328
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,640
And you guys, let random people who come in here

329
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,200
to learn about Rodeo just sort of wrestle bulls to

330
00:25:18,279 --> 00:25:23,759
the ground. We sure do that, Waiver theres iron clad

331
00:25:23,839 --> 00:25:26,960
and well. To be fair, we make our money from

332
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,279
the people watching, not the people learning. He points up

333
00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:33,799
to the stands where you see a whole bunch of

334
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:40,319
people eating popcorn and watching what's going on here? You

335
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:45,759
move over to the side. Spaceship, you say to your watch, Yes,

336
00:25:46,319 --> 00:25:52,119
spaceship answers, do you have any memories of people uh

337
00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:59,920
fighting bulls? No, Spaceship answers, I do not recommend fighting

338
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,880
a bull. Bulls are very dangerous creatures. It is better

339
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:10,880
to run away or evade the bull entirely. Yeah, I

340
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,039
get that, But this guy wants me to wrestle one.

341
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:19,200
How am I supposed to do that? You ask, excellent question.

342
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:26,599
Perhaps we could enhance your physical attributes? You can what

343
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,279
we can enhance your physical attributes, giving you a higher

344
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:40,039
level of strength, endurance, and speed. You can do that,

345
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:45,680
you say, of course, we can use the transmorphizer, the

346
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,359
same device built into your watch that allows you to

347
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:54,759
transform into different creatures. I will have it modify your

348
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,680
human DNA to make your muscles denser and far more

349
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:04,119
power powerful. I will also enhance your brain to move

350
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:13,200
faster and increase your reaction time. Oh okay, initializing a

351
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:19,839
strange tingling sensation passes through your body, only unlike normal,

352
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,640
Your shape doesn't change. Your muscles just sort of feel

353
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,960
like they suddenly tighten in place. Your eyes start to

354
00:27:30,079 --> 00:27:36,319
move faster, and your mind starts to work well more

355
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:43,119
efficiently than ever. How does that feel, spaceship asks, I

356
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:50,880
feel a powerful You say excellent. Now be careful not

357
00:27:51,039 --> 00:27:56,799
to become unalived. Ugh, who are you talking to over there?

358
00:27:57,319 --> 00:28:02,720
Silas says, it's your turn the ring. The goal here

359
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,480
is to wrestle the bull to the ground. If you

360
00:28:06,519 --> 00:28:12,240
can throw them down on his sad, you win. You

361
00:28:12,599 --> 00:28:16,599
enter through a gate in the ring. Silas closes it

362
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:21,400
behind you, and another door opens on the other end.

363
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,960
A large and very angry looking bull stares at you.

364
00:28:28,559 --> 00:28:33,200
It pushes its front hoof against the ground, then it

365
00:28:33,319 --> 00:28:39,319
runs directly at you. Something in your mind clicks into place,

366
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:46,160
and your reaction time suddenly speeds up, making the world

367
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:51,519
seem as if it's slowing down around you. You watch

368
00:28:51,599 --> 00:28:56,920
every step the bull makes and well pretty much slow motion.

369
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:03,400
As it approaches you instinctively and quickly step to the side.

370
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,480
You reach up and grab its one horn with your

371
00:29:07,599 --> 00:29:12,000
left hand and its other horn with your right. You

372
00:29:12,079 --> 00:29:15,480
pull one arm in and push the other one straight

373
00:29:15,559 --> 00:29:19,079
up in the air, forcing the bull to turn its

374
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,920
neck to the side and causing it to flop over

375
00:29:23,119 --> 00:29:29,519
onto its side. Oh, you actually did it, Silas says,

376
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:32,519
Now you're probably gonna want to get out of there.

377
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,680
You look around and then begin to run. Before the

378
00:29:36,759 --> 00:29:39,960
bull can make its way to its feet again, you

379
00:29:40,039 --> 00:29:43,440
hop over the side and watch as it climbs to

380
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:49,240
its feet and starts to run around rather angrily. Well,

381
00:29:49,799 --> 00:29:54,640
I guess you pass the class as we promised. You

382
00:29:54,839 --> 00:29:58,240
now have the chance to make up your own event,

383
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,880
maybe combine and some of the skills you've learned into

384
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:09,039
something that will be rather entertaining for the guests. Huh,

385
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,599
I wonder what that would be. Well, I don't know,

386
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,680
you could like ride the bull and then hop off

387
00:30:17,759 --> 00:30:21,119
and wrestle it to the ground and then I don't know,

388
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,960
like jump on a horse and last suet or something

389
00:30:24,079 --> 00:30:31,519
like that. Huh, Okay, you say, I was just joking,

390
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:38,519
Silas says, but all right, I guess we can do that.

391
00:30:39,799 --> 00:30:43,480
Silas moves over and starts to confer with others, setting

392
00:30:43,559 --> 00:30:48,759
up the entire arrangement. Then they move you over towards

393
00:30:48,759 --> 00:30:53,799
a bull. All right, well, I guess you'll start on

394
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,759
this here bull and ride it till you get thrown

395
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,759
off or jump off or whatever. Then you'll have to

396
00:31:01,839 --> 00:31:05,000
wrestle it to the ground, after which time you can

397
00:31:05,079 --> 00:31:09,039
run over to your horse, re enter the arena and

398
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,599
try to take it down with a lastsu kid, You've

399
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,440
done pretty well today, and I just want to say that,

400
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,119
as much as I am not liable, if you do

401
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:26,680
end up, you know, not making it here, I hope

402
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,680
you don't, or I hope you do make it, is

403
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:36,319
what I'm saying. Thanks, you say as you climb onto

404
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:40,920
the bull and slide your hand underneath the rope. But

405
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,519
with your increased strength and all the memories about rodeo,

406
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,480
it really shouldn't be an issue. A buzzer rings and

407
00:31:49,519 --> 00:31:53,880
the door opens up. The bull speeds out with you

408
00:31:54,039 --> 00:31:57,880
a top. It runs around in circles, it jumps up

409
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:03,440
and down and does its to throw you off. Unfortunately

410
00:32:03,559 --> 00:32:08,759
for it, you're not going anywhere the buzzer rings to

411
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,240
indicate that you've made it through the time limit. So

412
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,240
you hop up on your feet on top of the

413
00:32:15,279 --> 00:32:19,799
bull's back as it continues to buck around, and on

414
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,519
the next buck you launch yourself up into the air.

415
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,680
You perform a perfect front flip with a little twist

416
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,559
at the end, and land on the ground, staring the

417
00:32:31,599 --> 00:32:37,519
bull down. The bull, upset about you riding it or whatever,

418
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,680
begins to run straight towards you again. Your new sense

419
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:48,400
of perception kicks in its movements slow. You step to

420
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:53,880
the side, grab its horns, twist them, and well guide

421
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,960
it over onto its side. With the bull down, you

422
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,559
run to the side of the arena. You jump over

423
00:33:01,599 --> 00:33:07,839
the fence and climb on your trusted horse, Changer. The

424
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,799
doors open once again, allowing you and Changer to run

425
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,680
forward and circle around the bull. The bull gets up

426
00:33:16,759 --> 00:33:22,200
off of the ground, looking rather well annoyed about all

427
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,480
of this. You grab the rope attached to his saddle,

428
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,480
begin spinning it around in a circle and wait for

429
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:34,119
the bull to charge towards You change your steps to

430
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,799
the side. As you release the rope, it hooks around

431
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:42,440
the bull and you pull it tight. You jump off

432
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,799
of the horse and move closer and closer to the bull,

433
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:51,039
who has now been roped by your last sue. Though

434
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,200
nothing about that really makes the situation safe. It's jumping

435
00:33:56,279 --> 00:33:59,400
up and down and doing its best to get free.

436
00:34:00,279 --> 00:34:03,200
It charges towards you, and again you step to the

437
00:34:03,359 --> 00:34:07,680
side and redirect its horns, causing it to fall down

438
00:34:07,759 --> 00:34:10,760
on the ground. You roll over top of the bull

439
00:34:11,119 --> 00:34:13,760
and quickly wrap the last so around both of its

440
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:19,039
legs before standing up and looking at the crowd. The

441
00:34:19,159 --> 00:34:26,679
crowd cheers, stands up and begins to clap and shout. Well,

442
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,199
I can't believe you actually did that. That was one

443
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:36,360
of the most ridiculous things I've ever suggested. Oh good job, kid,

444
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:42,000
Silas says, slapping you on the back. Thanks, you respond,

445
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:47,079
Silas hands you a giant trophy. As you climb back

446
00:34:47,159 --> 00:34:50,760
a top changer. You hold the trophy in the air

447
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:56,079
and the crowd cheers once again. Then you give changer

448
00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,440
a little nudge in the side and you try out

449
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:07,840
of the arena, back outside and straight into the spaceship. Well,

450
00:35:08,159 --> 00:35:12,039
how was it, spaceship asks as you climb off of

451
00:35:12,079 --> 00:35:16,320
the horse, and the horse transforms back into a tiny

452
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,599
little earth puppy that quickly jumps up onto the couch.

453
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:27,599
It was kind of weird, you say. Interesting. I suggest

454
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:32,360
we now undo the physical changes I have made, Otherwise

455
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:39,800
they could cause complications. Ah fine, you say. Another strange

456
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,559
tingling sensation passes through your body, and your muscles sort

457
00:35:44,599 --> 00:35:51,840
of release. When the tingling stops, you feel weaker than before,

458
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:58,199
and well rather tired. I think I'm gonna go to bed,

459
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,239
you say. When you head out towards the door to

460
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:07,920
your bedroom, it opens automatically and you climb into your bed.

461
00:36:09,199 --> 00:36:12,599
You pull the covers up to your chin, and the

462
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:18,360
lights dim automatically. You listen to the hum of the

463
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:23,920
ship as it lifts up off the planet and blasts

464
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:31,280
out into space once again. With each breath, your muscles

465
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:39,360
relax more and more and more. You release the tension

466
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:46,719
in your arms, your legs, your shoulders, your neck, and

467
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:54,920
slowly you drift off to thoughts of new dreams, new adventures,

468
00:36:55,800 --> 00:40:54,000
and new rodeos to come. Good night, everyone in New York, more.

469
00:41:48,800 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 3: Union, no mom thing, no.

470
00:44:27,960 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 1: Mo in New York, Long.

471
00:48:55,880 --> 00:50:05,079
Speaker 3: Union, m

472
00:54:59,519 --> 00:54:59,559
Speaker 2: H.
