    Howdy. I love your podcasts. As a small time race horse owner and breeder in Texas for 30 years, I never fail to learn something new about horse racing from Kenny and your podcast. I look forward to each episode. I listen when I’m doing the evening barn chores on my phone. Thanks so much

    Keep up the good work. Katie Hayes
