The *Real* Clinton Anderson (profanity)

Oh man :grimacing: I’d like to find a hanging tree for that slime.

But on a happier note has anyone watched the video that comes right after his? Funny and cool!

The next video for me came up as a Japanese style omelet :smiley:

:smile: Oh! Was it the omelet that they fold in with the bread and veggies to look like a sandwich?

I wonder if he realizes that TB racing stallions worth millions get turned out daily to run and play and graze and be horses?

He’s such a moron.

Exactly! I drove past a tb farm last week and the one pasture alone probably had about 5 million $ in broodmares with foals cavorting around in it.

This was a really interesting podcast. Not CA’s Uncut and Real podcast but Mike’s Converse Cowboy. He was recalling a situation where he worked 16 hours at a tour, went to the hotel bar to down his sorrows because he lost $35,000 on the tour. Some woman who didn’t want to wait in line at the tour started up a convo while he was off the clock in a bar. He gave her short answers to indicate he didn’t want to engage. This woman wasn’t picking up on that and kept asking him questions. He finally gave her an answer to shut her up. Maybe listen to the whole podcast?

Regarding all the money he spent; I attended a couple of Steve Rother’s clinics and he would show up with normal 3 horse trailer and pick up. Then one day he’s there with a huge, custom horse coach big enough for his entire road show all decked out with Steve Rother emblazoned on the sides and custom paint job. I joked to him he better have a lot of shows lined up to pay for that enormous rig. He didn’t find that funny.

Clinics are different than tours. Clinics are for teaching people who sign up to participate in whatever the clinician is teaching. Tours are a production demonstration of what they teaching, selling, marketing and usually include meet and greets. Tours usually give away free tickets so you will sign up for their clinics, products, whatever they are marketing. An advertising tradeshow of sorts.

This video popped up on my feed the other day and the language is a real turn off. I understand some people find it humorous and I’m sure he doesn’t intend any real harm, but it’s a big ick from me. I guess maybe that’s part of the brand?

I had the exact same reaction.

The brand is…weird. It started out as being ā€œcuteā€ and Australian and that caught enough attention to get him going. Then it basically evolved into being more and more of an outright bully and it almost feels like a game of how nasty he can be while still getting paid.

I wonder what his equine mentors would think of his behavior.

The comments are surprisingly positive on the Facebook video. A bit disheartening to me, but seems to work for the getting paid!

Although the horses are bred very well and I’m sure they’d sell regardless of insensitive language.

He can also delete comments he doesn’t like on social media…

There are new people every day who don’t understand what they’re actually seeing, they just see the polish and confidence and that his horses do as he says and they want that, too. And he really does play up to the middle-aged ladies new to horses set.

He’s disgusting. And the horse he’s sitting on sure was puffing hard. Hey Clinton, how about walk that horse till it’s cool instead of opening your pie hole and reaffirming your total nastiness for us.

I’m not a prude and I understand ā€œdude to dudeā€ chatter that will have bluster and innuendo.

Clinton’s narrative objectifying the mare/females in that video is dark. My best guess is that he’s in a place professionally where he doesn’t care what people think. I’d never send a mare to him for training nor would I send a daughter to him for a clinic.

I’m shocked at how he views horses (in general), and not just mares/females: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1DtM7SNoRt/

:flushed::flushed: Clinton is really disgusting. He made a lot of assumptions about that horse.

Somewhere between the ā€œParellis Magik Horse Play 5 years of groundworkā€ stuff and that Neanderthal ā€œstart the colt in a shoebox wearing 7ā€ jingle jangle spursā€ is the sweet spot.
