  • Am I the only one that can’t keep up?

    I’m a lifelong racing and breeding industry participant that was excited to listen to the Phar Lap story but goddamn! I don’t know if it’s the editing or the lack of a proper storyline but it chops and changes from the start of the story to the end. A few times I’ve checked that I haven’t started listening to ep1 instead of Ep 6…. No systematic telling of the story. Have given up.
