  • When the Track Opens Up
    May 11 2026

    Mac and Rhoni talk Kentucky Derby excitement, comeback moments, and what happens when life starts moving again.

    From a dramatic final stretch run at Churchill Downs to launching a long-discussed boutique dream, this episode is about momentum — and the surprising way faith often begins with one small step forward.

    Along the way, the conversation turns toward Kentucky revival history, the Red River and Cane Ridge meeting houses, spiritual awakening in America, and the idea that sometimes the track opens up right when you decide to move.

  • You Didn't Miss Your Life
    May 3 2026

    Ever feel like you should be further along by now?

    In this episode of The Weekend Joyride, Mac and Rhoni talk honestly about the gap between the life we imagined and the life we’re actually living. From quiet regrets to unexpected turns, this conversation explores what it means to trust that your story isn’t off track—even when it feels like it is.

    Along the way, a simple (and slightly overanalyzed) movie moment turns into a powerful reminder: life moves in seasons. Some feel like things are falling apart. Some feel still and uncertain. But that doesn’t mean the story is over.

    If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re behind in life… this episode is for you.

  • Still Enough To See The Treasure
    Apr 26 2026

    Sometimes the things that mean the most to us… are the things we didn’t recognize at the time.

    In this episode of The Weekend Joyride, Mac and Rhoni reflect on growing up in San Saba and how places that once felt ordinary now feel like treasures.

    From longtime favorites like Pecan House Grill and Harry's Boots, to stories of vision, legacy, and the independent spirit of the West, they explore how perspective changes over time—and how some people can see value long before anyone else does.

    Along the way, the conversation is framed by the spirit of the West you hear in stories like Lonesome Dove—where people move toward something they believe in long before it fully exists.

    That idea leads to something deeper: what if that same principle applies to our lives and our faith?

    What if the treasure isn’t somewhere out there…
    but has been there all along?

    This episode is about slowing down, listening more closely, and learning to see what’s already right in front of you.
