About this episode
The episode explores the film Seabiscuit and its connection to the upcoming Kentucky Derby, blending nostalgia and storytelling.
In this interseason bonus episode, we saddle up for a conversation that’s equal parts nostalgia, Americana, and bourbon-fueled storytelling. With the Kentucky Derby around the corner, we finally dive into Seabiscuit (2003)—a film Bob has been waiting 11 seasons to cover. It may be a loose connection (Seabiscuit never ran the Derby), but it’s the perfect excuse to explore one of the most iconic underdog stories in sports history.
