Jeffco Crew #071 - Rodeo, Pride & Father's Day

I've watched approximately 95% of the World Cup so far, and have mastered being productive while soccer is on in the background.

Great tournament so far, I love the expanded field allowing smaller nations to have their moments, and they're taking advantage of those moments!

This upcoming week/end is a mix of Pride celebrations, World Cup viewing parties, Evergreen Rodeo and more.

And, of course, Happy Father's Day to all the Dads on the list!

Let's get into it.
