About this episode
In this episode of the Bear Grease podcast, host Clay Newcomb travels across the border to the 33rd annual Ada Oklahoma Mule Sale. Johnny Kelso and son Justin Kelso talk about their family history with mules, history with the sale, and what it means to be "mule folks." Mule buyer and seller Max Bishop describes what he looks for in a good mule as the mule sale moves along. We answer the question of what a mule is and how they compare to a horse. Listen closely for the auction of the High Selling Mule.
