On this episode I chatted with return guest Steve Cook about how he has transformed his feed business using social media. We talk about the opportunity in the equine industry for growth, how Steve has doubled down on performance horse feed and supplies and his plans for the future.
In 2009 the Cook Family bought the old Cross Brand Feed store in Oklahoma City and created what is now Cook Feed & Outdoor at 63rd & Bryant. By staying dedicated to the needs of performance equine customers, that one store has grown to four! The Yukon Store opened in 2014. The Norman Store in 2020. And the Remington park location in 2022 But in addition to our physical stores, we’ve created an outstanding online store that features Delivery straight to you in more than 100 zip codes in Central Oklahoma!

This is David Davis - National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum | Route 66 Exhibit
Saturday Mar 14, 2026
Saturday Mar 14, 2026
On this episode I chatted with David about the wonderful celebration of Route 66.
The story of the American West is, at its heart, a story about movement. Folks moving across a wide, wild stretch of land—different people, cultures, and communities all heading west for their own reasons. Over time, the push westward became less about wandering and more about building—building ways to get people and goods from here to there. And at the center of all that movement? The roads, rivers, rails, and trails that carved their way through this rugged land.
We tell that story in our new exhibition: Route 66: From Trails to Truck Stops.
