Just dropped our most unique ranch story yet - Medlin Ranch, the only cattle operation that requires government radio clearance to check on cows.
What we uncovered:
Steve Medlin runs cattle 100 miles from Area 51's restricted airspace
His simple black mailbox became "the most photographed mailbox in the world" after Bob Lazar's 1989 UFO claims
Tourists camp at his ranch looking for aliens while he's just trying to run cattle
Had to replace his mailbox with bulletproof steel after UFO enthusiasts shot it full of holes
The reality: A Nevada rancher who never asked to be part of UFO lore, just wanted to raise cattle in peace. But when your ranch sits next to America's most secret military base, normal ranching rules don't apply.
This is where cattle ranching meets government secrecy in the Nevada desert.

NEW VIDEO: The Ranch That Outlived 3 Governments
Just dropped the story of America's most impossible survival - Bell Ranch has operated continuously since 1824.
The incredible facts:
290,000 acres under Spanish, Mexican, and American rule
Survived Apache wars, territorial changes, economic crashes
Original land grants that predate Texas statehood
200 years without selling a single acre
While every other 1800s ranch failed or sold, Bell Ranch endured through frontier warfare and complete government changes. This is how true permanence is built in America.
