Rodeo Legends Pam Minick and Trevor Brazile Pay Tribute to Patrick Gottsch

Pam Minick, a longtime host on RFD-TV, reflects on her over two-decade journey with the network and her work on shows like Gentle Giants and The American Rancher. Minick recalls that The American Rancher was among the first shows on RFD-TV due to Patrick Gottsch's roots with the Superior Livestock Auction. She highlights her collaboration with Gottsch, sharing a memorable disagreement over music for a Don Imus special, which Gottsch ultimately won with his choice of Queen.

Trevor Brazile, a rodeo legend, praises Gottsch for his vision and innovation in the rodeo world, notably with events like The American and securing TV rights for rodeo. Brazile credits Gottsch for transforming the industry and expanding its reach through platforms like the Cowboy Channel.

Minick emphasizes Gottsch's passion for the Western lifestyle and his impact on rural America. She recounts being sent by Gottsch to produce a special on Willie Nelson and biodiesel, illustrating his innovative thinking. Both Brazile and Minick reflect on Gottsch's legacy, with Brazile cherishing a gold buckle he received, and Minick recalling Gottsch’s love for the Rose Parade, which he broadcasted for 17 years. Both guests celebrate Gottsch's contributions and the lasting impact of his visionary ideas.
