The Conversations Shaping Today’s Show Livestock Industry
Drench Line is a podcast about sheep and goats, show life, and everything that comes with it. When to vaccinate, how to pick your animal, what to expect at your first major show, and what nobody on Facebook actually tell you. Pull up a seat.
Have you ever asked...
If any of these sound familiar, you're exactly who this show is for.
What should we actually expect walking into our first jackpot show?
How do I pick the right animal for my kid's first year?
How long do we need to exercise our animals to build muscle?
My kid weighs 70 pounds. Can they even show sheep or goats?
When am I supposed to worm and vaccinate — and what am I even using?
Is sheep and goat showing too much for a kid who's never been around livestock?
How do I navigate the Texas major show circuit without looking like I have no idea what I'm doing?
What kind of feed or supplements do I need to use at different times of the year?
What's the difference between how the top breeders feed and what the rest of us do?
Meet your hosts
Logan Newsom
Sheep producer — Olton, Texas
Logan was born in the Texas Panhandle and grew up in West Texas, where he showed sheep and hogs before landing at Angelo State to play football. He eventually joined the livestock judging team, spent time in Texas Agri-Life Extension Service, and returned to what he knows best: raising sheep. He's currently a full-time sheep producer based in Olton, Texas, raising his family in the same world he grew up in.
Sam Silvers
Sheep and goat producer, rancher — Junction, Texas
Sam was raised in Salado, Texas, spent his summers working sheep in West Texas, livestock judged at South Plains before finishing his degree at Texas Tech. He's held roles as a Texas Agri-Life County Extension agent, a Border Patrol agent, Livestock pharmaceutical salesman and is now the Small Ruminant Technical Sales Support Senior Manager for BioZyme Inc., the makers of Sure Champ and DuraFerm. He's one of the few people who can say both himself and his son have won the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo market lamb show.
Most show families figure it out the hard way. They ask around, get partial answers, and fill in the rest themselves. Logan Newsom and Sam Silvers have been in the show ring long enough to have made most of those mistakes themselves — and they want to share that advice with you.
Drench Line is a podcast about sheep and goats, show life, and everything that comes with it. When to vaccinate, how to pick your animal, what to expect at your first major show, and what nobody on Facebook will actually tell you.
Logan and Sam have been friends since they were teenagers working summers in Eden, Texas. Now they're both show dads, watching their own kids figure out the same world they grew up in. The podcast is their way of passing it on — not just to their kids, but to every family that's new to this and looking for someone to shoot straight.
About the show
Drench Line was built for the conversations that actually move the sheep and goat industry forward—the ones happening in the barn, on the wash rack, and behind the scenes.
We’re opening the door for a limited number of founding partners to get in early. That means flexible placements and pricing that won’t last forever.
Whether it’s a quick ad read, a full episode feature, or an in-person interview at a show or your operation, we’re building this with brands and breeders who want to be part of the conversation—not just sit on the sidelines.
Studio shoots and expanded video formats are coming soon, and our goal is simple: make your brand feel like it belongs here.
If you’re looking to lock in early, let’s talk.
