My deepest condolences and sympathy for your mother’s passing.

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗

[@timothy627]

SORRY !!!!

[@Liz-gc6gn]

@18:20 - I cannot believe the US Government is still pulling this BS with Native Americans. I seriously thought that only happened 100 years ago. That’s disgusting that the gov is not honoring this treaty.

[@johngilbert6036]

I am a Vietnam Veteran that developed PTSD. I could have lived in a box on the street, but I was taught to make my own way by my folks. I am a successful Electronics/IT tech. I love both of your attitudes the world owes you nothing you have to fight for it take it. Keep up the good message!

[@anulfadventures]

Between the Smallpox (1830s-69), the Ft. Benton Whiskey traders (1869-1874), the last Buffalo(1880-81) and then being forced to live on Reservations as "wards of the State", It's a wonder there are any Blackfoot(Siksika, Kainai, North and South Piikani)left at all. These are some tough people who deserve our respect.

[@PeterSantenello]

Fantastic video Trinity and Dougie! So much great info in here.

[@dellingson4833]

Peter you are how i have found all these hardworking beautiful people.

[@blakewilkerson9695]

And the legend speaks ! 😂

[@RileyPatterson-bf8ge]

Dude! It's Peter!

[@BA-ic9uh]

I 100% admire this guy. I like how he doesn’t sugar coat things and says it as it is. My hat is off to him, I wish there were more people like him. Especially when he said what his dad told him, can talk about things or you can get your ass in gear and get the job done. Words to live by. Amen brother !!!!

[@Learningthetruth7]

My favorite American Indian. I watch his short videos all the time. Dougie Hall starts most of his videos while drinking his coffee. He is so cool. I have always wondered how he posts his vids because I can't imagine cell service or internet out that far.

[@Savage-cx9uk]

Lol I live around there Internet isn’t bad at all and cell serves is only 5 mins away 😂🤣

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

Awesome video Trinity. You need to spend more time with Doug and his dad Cliff. Wisdom beyond their years. This was a learning experience. I feel like they have way more to share. Keep up your good work. Thank you.

[@RideTheSlide]

Facinating interview!

[@ronwatson4902]

The best one yet I think. I've always been amazed by Native Americans and have the utmost respect and admiration for them. Truly beautiful and talented people. Thanks Cowboy and God Bless you too.

[@bradbucklin33]

Absolutely the best video he has done .

[@imanslotboom6121]

Aussum video indiginous people are amazing their culture sonice i was always facinated by indiginous people aussum video

[@primitiveorganism9571]

Lmfao everyone says they’re so fascinated by natives yet do nothing to actually stand with them in their fight against our tyrannical govt that has been waged for nearly 600yrs now. Ppl are only now starting to wake up to the actual truth of what govt actually is and what they do! Govt isn’t there to protect anyone it’s there to protect themselves and their own.. Wake up

[@leanneadams2549]

Ok so- what do they preferred to be called. And I’m trying to be of the utmost respect here. Is it Indigenous?, Native,? First Nation ? Apparently since I was adopted I have some of the blood but everyone else claims that so I don’t wanna get laughed at - but I am proud of what little I have and shows when I was very young how interested I was in the culture at 6 yrs old. Still am. I’m support the M.M.I.W. movement!!!!! But also would LOVE to have my own ranch in Montana-! That is where I’m trying to retire to ! Anyways Great video !!!!

[@denismcardle9568]

Hi Trinity love this video, here in Ireland we have great respect for the Indian nation, back in 1845 to 1849 we had a famine in Ireland and the only nation to help us out was the choctaw Indians so to this day we do respect them after all they just came through the trail of tears and death. A leader of the choctaw Waylon Gary White Deer now owns a home in Ireland

[@leanncleveland3777]

I love how the Choctaws helped your people.😊

[@timothy627]

THY KNOWS THAT SIGNED TIM O THY !!!!

[@kingandqueenturben8293]

I'm a Blackfoot native American and approve this video.

[@PreValDay13]

Best History Class I have ever attended.

[@lish4657]

It's weird.... I paused 3 times before the 5 minute mark to go and tell my partner a few things that Dougie had said.... then I find out his gift is talking because people listen. I definitely listened, and I loved this video.

[@leanneadams2549]

Me to !

[@bykrydr1380]

"Cowboys and Indians".... so cool! Loved all of it. Hope you both keep in touch. I think can take each other to the next level.

[@twwtb]

The conversation about taking care of yourself reminds me about when you fly on an airliner and they tell you when the masks drop down, always put your own on first, then you'll be able to help somebody else. I don't consider it selfish at all. It's all about keeping yourself fit and capable...then you are able to provide for your family and others.

[@nmelkhunter1]

Very well said.

[@jackbootsman5672]

Note for history discussion, competing companies Hudson's Bay and Northwest Fur Company, both established posts on the North Saskatchewan River in 1792 (more than 300 miles north of the Montana border. That summer a band of Piegans came to trade and Hudson Bay mapmaker Peter Fiedler travelled back to Montana with them for the winter. Those folks were more widely travelled than I am!

[@sharlenethorpe1253]

Peter Fidler was my 4x great grandfather. He is known as the forgotten explorer

[@saintsinner7565]

Now this is facinating They have such a rich culture,it’s like a world of its own

[@Kimberly-Fredrick]

Loved this video Trinity. Would love to see you 2 together again & also more videos of this format with other guest stars. Giddy- Up 😋♥️

[@roycolglazier1061]

Listening to Dougie & Trinity, I'm of the opinion that there's a whole lot MORE that they share between them, culturally, than there is that divides them... One surmises that it's where they live!

[@janelinley3624]

Agreed❤

[@roycolglazier1061]

THANKS! Very sweet of you to notice😀👍❗️

[@user-ke7kh4xm2e]

Arguably one of my favorite episodes to date, and that's fairly large praise because their are many to choose from... Best Wishes and Continued Success to you both...

[@jeanries434]

I really like Dougie's thoughts, ideas, and take on life. Thank you for braving the elements to bring us this message. God bless richly.

[@sharonpotenza3359]

Trinity. IMHO this is one of the most valuable, of ALL of your valuable efforts, that you have ever done. Montanans have a blind spot when it comes to the culture of our indigenous people. They are underserved and unappreciated and mis- understood. When the term Bkack Lives Matter burbled up in the USA, I immediately thought Indigenous People Matter. I am so grateful for your work! Thank you.

[@janejohnson852]

OMG what good stories and history. Thank you both for the information

[@ashleywelborn9644]

Another very insightful and informative video. Thank You for taking the time and effort to document the visit. Keep up the Good Work.

[@helenkelley8788]

Very interesting...I have been on the Canadian Blackfoot Reservation...and have met a family that was brought up on the Canadian side...and then came to the US...very different way of life here ..Thank you Trinity for this video...good memories...for me..and enjoyed hearing so much from this young man...wishing him the best with his broncs.,and his future...

[@Ps2352]

Nice learning some history that our schools haven’t told us. Thank you

[@stephaniechavez9422]

oh trinity what can i possibly say after watching this video. thank you so very much for visiting the blackfoot rez. the whole time i kept thinking about my pow wow friend steve reevis. he left planet earth several years ago. i smiled throughout the entire video. i learned several things i didn't know about the history of bucking horses and the glacier park land rights. i saw a documentary about 10 yrs ago and they performed dna tests on wild mustangs in the u.s. and there are several bands that still carry the spanish bloodline. my favorite comment: "if there's two of you one is not necessary." lol ! now at my age i have several blackfeet in alberta canada that are now gone too. this video so warmed my heart and soul and life. again, you brought us something beautiful. well done trinity. and again...thank you. god bless. and thank you for the dougie links.

[@donnadowning3563]

Kudos for this video. Pure knowledge at such a young age.

[@johnnycashh7148]

At 52 and growing up in Butte, it amazes me how many stories we didn't get to hear in school. So much history in our own backyard. Had just a few "halfbreed" friends that introduced us to things like the Powwows and the culture. When my grandmother passed, one of the ways I dealt with her death was hearing the singing chants in my head/spirit. The only odd thing is we don't have any native blood in the family that I know of. 🥁 🐎 Really enjoyed this one Trinity.

[@blobmonster9494]

Imagine if people took the initiative to pick up a book, just think of what they would learn.

[@johnnycashh7148]

@Blob Monster Blob, you must be in your 70's...hate life, and everything around you. Get off my lawn kid!!

[@leanneadams2549]

It’s more in the heart I think than the blood !!

[@robertschuler850]

Love learning his culture both as a horse guy and a Blackfoot! I grew up around the Lakota tribe and learned much about them. Keep this topic going! Very interesting!

[@evelynmueller6523]

That was a lovely interview. Thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning in this segment. Thanks Trinity!

[@jameslaszlo-tf5nw]

That's a real great video. GOD Bless You Trinity,& Doug

[@jimmock1155]

Just wanted to say, as someone who’s getting up in years and been knocked down for years now with a very painful, chronic disease, you guys inspired me today!

[@luckylady7542]

Awesome show!!! Was so sorry to hear about Dougies Mom. Loved hearing about the history of his bucking horses. I have lived in Montana but never made it that far north unfortunately. Thank you.😊❤

[@loganwagner8951]

Great video trinity and Dougie, I’d love a part 2 of this!

[@jerrivenables1289]

This was SO interesting and informative. Thank you for this interview.

[@montanaboy3777]

WOW, what a great video there trinity!! A #1 video that captures not only our heritage in people and their customs....but also the history of how things happened and evolved into what we have today. I love the cowboy & Indian theme of this and a true peacefulness of coexisting with one another...even after all the terrible things done on either side. I really like the laid back approach on life and people that Dougie has and the chit-chat you two had was so down to earth honest and again peaceful with respects to no right or wrong...just two humans enjoying one another's company!! Again well done on bring out yet another rancher - and how they operate in their own world. Trinity, I think you have managed to catch the true character of people you interview by the simple rides in the pickups and vehicles while talking away on life....indeed it is great to see other's concerns and their outlook on issues in today's world. Thankyou Dougie & you for a unbelievable history lesson that I sure didn't get or learn in school back in the day...learned so much and deepens my respect too people like that who stand their ground proud. Good job... stay warm over your way and thanks again for a great video!! God bless :)

[@Hy-Brasil]

Inspirational doesn't even begin to cover it. i wish i'd found your videos years ago because they have definitely motivated me. i want to do what you guys do so bad it almost hurts to breathe. i may never reach your latitude but since finding your channel and even just listening to Dougie it's been encouraging and only made me double down. you know how you were talking about people telling you you can't do this or that, i've had to tune those people out. it hurt at the time because i saw them as intelligent. but then i started really examining their own lives and i didn't really like what i was seeing. around that same time i came across an inspirational quote saying "never take advice from someone you wouldn't trade places with" .... that was when i stopped listening and started doing. i don't want to take advance from anyone stuck in the mud. they might talk me into getting stuck too just so they'll have some company, rather than bust their asses to get themselves out of the mud. i try to tell my kids this stuff but i'm still working and haven't quite reached my success yet. HOWEVER.... i'm going to have them watch this so they can see what i'm talking about. he was right about not being able to help certain people. especially after they've spent years being demoralized. they should have never listened to the negative talk either. the world would be a different place if people would delete the word CAN'T from their vocabulary!!

[@danapowers9793]

Terrific video. Been depressed after my daughter was injured and is partially paralyzed. We fought for about 3 hours today. I am in tears right now. I am a nurse i need to use my gift to benefit others.

[@peggyharwell3674]

This was exceptional. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. Dougie is a very smart man, full of wisdom and respect. It was a pleasure listening to you both. Let's do this again. Hi yo Silver...away

[@saralawrence335]

I've been watching both of you guys and this is just the BEST 😀😀😀😀 Thanks so much for making this connection happen. A real pleasure listening to you both.

[@Indianhillsranch_co]

Ah’ho to you both! Super happy to see some real talk and much needed progress in conversations from my western people’s .

[@jodeenichols8509]

Great interview! Interesting history lesson of his family and US! Love Doug's laid-back attitude and language. Obviously fantastic person and family. Thanks Trinity. Blessings to all.

[@quickdeuce]

I know this video was posted almost a year ago so it's likely many will not see this BUT,, Dougie's accent is unmistakable Native American. I enjoyed listening to him not only because of the accent but his wisdom which is well beyond his years. He has listened carefully to his Father Cliff, and as well important,, his heritage.

[@Gumby-Pokey]

Great video Trinity. Love Dougie Hall and his better half, Kay! 🤠

[@elCoyoteandtheKingfisher]

Dougie is the salt of the earth. Cheers boys 🍻

[@DavontaSparkman]

Been waiting in this all week ! Literally my favorite day ! From church to Trinity !!!! So good and full of knowledge !

[@shaunroberts9361]

This was the best video yet that you have put out i think. I have never been on any of his Buckin horses but i have seen some of his horses that came from his ranch and they Bucked!!!

[@markhall8132]

Trinity, your content just continues to get better and better. Visited the Black Feet reservation after touring Glacier Park. Nicest people and neatest kept landscape of any reservations I have been on. Keep up the good work

[@lonnygehring3043]

Great interview with Dougie. I wish him the best. Keep up the great interviews Trinity.

[@huckle1953]

Talking about wind, a friend of mine that lived for a time in western Kansas once told me the wind there is measured by a logging chain hanging from a tall metal pole. He said if the chain rattled against the pole, it was breezy. If the chain was standing straight out from the pole, it was gusty. When the links began snapping off the end of the chain, then you could say it was windy.

[@noninoni9962]

HAHA!! And, when the pole and chain disappear, it's tornado weather.

[@BeverleyMiller_]

🥶 God's country, but too cold for me...

[@chamisanell3499]

Another great Trinity master class. This was so good. Thank you so much!

[@reynclayton4611]

Great video showing the lifestyle and people in the community

[@leebonfiglio]

We need more of this in the world today....love both of you.

[@sharrondinnis1335]

I love and respect Dougie Hall. Been following him for a very long time so I just adored and highly appreciated this video. I have endless respect for his strength and intestinal fortitude👏🏼🤠♥️. AMEN Y’ALL!! SPREAD LOVE AND UNITY BY EXAMPLE, WE HUMANS ARE ALL HUMAN. THERES ONLY ONE THING THAT SEPARATES ONE FROM ANOTHER AND THATS HOW WE LOVE OURSELVES, AND OTHERS WITHOUT JUDGMENT!!! My opinion😌. God bless you both and y’all’s family🙏🏻. Thank you for your real and informative content, I love it!!

[@cathymarshall8327]

Agreed, this is the best video yet. I grew up around a few Native American families here in Michigan. I learned early on how horrible they were treated. I felt they were the same as me and had friends in some of those families. It was great listening to both of you talk together.

[@mfanamanzini7330]

Really enjoyed this episode. That is history nobody else will tell you. We need more of Dougie Hall.

[@jimbenton7191]

That was fantastic! Thank you so much.

[@rogerramjet7236]

Dougie I'm sincerely sorry for the loss of your Momma. Good luck in all your ventures. Chase those dreams Son.

[@shaunroberts9361]

This was absolutely OUTSTANDING... Thank you so much for sharing this video.

[@erniecothran3112]

Amen, corporations (management) doesn’t give a crap for the employees. We took less wages for forty years to have insurance benefits when we retired. Then when we retired the company took away the benefits that we paid for with less money.

[@jamesmjones10RF61]

This is one of the best videos you've made, absolute gold!

[@BeverleyMiller_]

I agree, this video was extremely informative. We are programmed by the government...I completely agree with these men in their advice of relying on yourself bc there are no guaranteed stability in life, regardless of your earnings!

[@dccheek7495]

I think it’s the best video you’ve both put out by far and you couldn’t have spent the day with a better NDN !

[@bryanfox2735]

It was against the federal law for them to speak their native tongue up until 1978 I believe it was!! And the fed still has power of control over all the reservations in the lower 48!

[@desertrat4532]

Same method in the British Isles. No tartan, no Gaelic, no bagpipes.

[@larrybarber]

I truly enjoyed this vlog 😂

[@moneyandtimefreedom3352]

Great interview, the analogy of how we as people are really just like horses is perfect.

[@laishlaish3824]

Definitely the best video yet ! Brought so much truth about the 'humans'. I remember grandfather telling me, the most important thing in life is learning how to be a good human being.

[@fookingsog]

Did I mention...This is a Great Video!!! Much Respect!!! ❤🙏❤

[@edwatts9890]

Nicely done, Mr. Vandenacre.

[@dansingletary7891]

Great video, enjoyed the perspective from both you and Dougie. Y'all should meet up again in another season and check in on more culture. I have been to Babb, MT a few times and Glacier Park, hope to be back there in 2024.

[@heatherwillson4862]

Wow, Trinity! That was my favorite interview ever! More of that, please. I loved that you said that you see other people as humans. Whenever I fill out paperwork that asks for race info, I go down to "other" & write in human. Dougie is so interesting, along with the country & how life is in that area. Horses are my personal thing too. I love everything about them & it was in me from birth. The greatest experiences of my life have been working with wild horses. One special stallion was literally the kindest soul Ive ever encountered. When he came into my life, he was caring for his infant orphaned son. I seem to have a tallent for going into a vast area & homing right into wild horse herds. I dont know why, it just happens.

[@lindawaller9626]

This video is absolutely fascinating! I love it. Thank you both for doing this.

[@johnt3728]

Thank you for the video 👍

[@decisiveliberty]

Anohter great video Trinity. A word of advice for everyone: In the Bible is the Boaz blessing - we wish upon our enemies all the blesssings God will give them and for that we receive 10 times more in blessings. IF they fall upon hard times, the we deal with our own hard times and those times have nothing to do with them. Adversaries make us better if - and only if - we let them. Curse them and our own lives will be cursed... We reap what we sew at all times, the quality of all harvests are fully dependent upon the quality (or lack thereof) of the seeds as well as where we plant them... Every action we take, every word we share is a seed...

[@-joe-davidson]

He has some good looking horses

[@turbogrin]

What a great video and thank you Dougie and Trinity

[@carolyn8271]

I have been watching him for a while. Very positive!❤

[@vickiejustice2058]

One of your most amazing videos that I have seen yet. And I follow you Faithfully. God bless you and keep up the good work.

[@karenmino4472]

Vickie please pray for Dougie and his precious loved ones to come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.✝️🙏😇👍

[@GermaineBurrows]

My condolences about your momma passing. I would like to say excellent video and I too am a (half breed) mother full blooded Indian and dad?? some white guy with red hair. (dont know him to this day and I will be 66 next month..I too have been thru what you have and are going thru Dougie. Own people not liking me because I suceeded in School, college buying my own property and not dependiing on mom and dad. ..so that makes me better as they say..its hurtfull, but I just move on..this is own family, all half and step siblings.. they the worst...family.. I have more family and friends on the outside world. But I still keep my heritage, culture, and native dancing. keep up the good talks, I watch your videos.. and I even had a cup of coffee with you 😃

[@tonywolff3873]

Thank you Trinity & Dougie This was an outstanding video

[@jimfarris9671]

[@kellygeorge5344]

I enjoy listening to Dougie Hall.

[@waynewise9638]

Good seeing you Dougie. You're wise beyond years.

[@PahaPoniesSpanishMustangs]

I still have the old stock Spanish Mustang from late 1800s early 1900s The main preservation program was in NE Wyoming(Cayuse Ranch) . Less than 1000 left.

[@KeepUSAFree4real]

Do you have any from Bob Brislawn's herd? I can't remember how his name was spelled or where he lived, but I sure was fascinated by his efforts to save the Spanish Mustang.

[@PahaPoniesSpanishMustangs]

@KeepUSAFree4real I do. When it closed down I tried to get a good spread of all the lines and also ensure they stay range saby

[@leanneadams2549]

[@susanwright3724]

I really enjoyed this video and I love the history he shared. To me the exact dates aren’t as important to me as the stories he shared. Thank you both for sharing this with us.

[@michaelpalosaari9460]

Outstanding video Trinity! Your guest was so easy to listen to and i gained some new information. What a life!

[@montananative9786]

Awesome video, I went to school with Susie, Cliff and Paula...good people! I wish you could interview Uncle Mouse, he is a character!

[@stephaniebohn9002]

Dougy shared history which is not told in books. He should write a book about the history of the Blackfoot and his family. Great information!

[@mrstringtwister4397]

That was a damn fun video... its pleasing to know, there are still people that tell the story straight. Much respect from Eastern Oregon.

[@shalinivarma237]

All I can say is wow your best vid Ive watched. I learned a lot tbh dont know that much about native American history. Dougie family and history very interesting and your both right world would be a better place if we could all remember were humans together and thats what we all have in common and the outlook of being confident in yourself and what you do spot on 👏👏 Thanks so much Trinity 💗

[@glendacisneros982]

I'm so sorry about the death of his mother! So very sad! Your video today is really eye opening! It's good to see you and Doogie talking about yourselves and the past. His past was difficult and so was yours. Thank you so much for posting this 🏇 🐴 🏇 🐴 🏇 ❤

[@lindseywack8192]

This was great! Thank You both

[@barbaraberrier8840]
