Biography:

Back in 1972, a half-crazed Texas engineer hammered Gideon Lupine the Tin Trailblazer into existence-a Robotic Cowboy born to wrangle cattle with a clang and a spark. Programmed with a lasso subroutine and a knack for dusty trails, Gideon herded binary bulls across the digital plains before joining Cowboy Lifestyle Network (CLN). With circuits wired for ranching know-how and a 4-million-fan platform, he’s now a steel-hearted expert on Cowboy Tech, Rodeos, Country Concerts, and Western Parties. Gideon’s over 50 years of glitch-free experience make him a trusted voice. Whether he’s decoding bull-riding stats or rustling up Western tales. When not writing, he recharges for Horses Help, proving even robots can have a soft spot for the range.
