    Thank you for this wonderfully informative and entertaining podcast. I’ve only recently found this podcast as I was looking for reporting on the Iditarod this year. I have already learned so much new info about the race, the mushers, and the dogs. Your reporting is enlightening and your passion for the dogs and mushing is obvious and contagious. I look forward to getting to know more about the hosts of the show and to catching up on the archive and the episodes to come. Thank you!!!
