Jason looks back at the big weekend of racing including Friday night's Charles Town Classic and the big Travers day card at Saratoga.  

Jason is joined by Maggie Wolfendale to discuss some of the Travers' weekend stories from Saratoga, the new Belmont, and more! 

  About this episode:  The October 1777 victory at Saratoga opened the door for an alliance with France, and that nation's aid was crucial for American independence. All too aware of that fact, Jefferson Davis made European recognition a priority. For as many Southerners put it, this was their second war for independence. Conversely, Abraham Lincoln was just as committed to keeping the Confederacy isolated. This is the story of two governments waging war in the art of negotiation. This is the story of diplomacy in the American Civil War.        ----more---- Some Characters Mentioned In This Episode: Henry John Temple Napoleon III Robert Barnwell Rhett Charles Francis Adams John Slidell Ferdinand Maximilian   Subscribe to the Threads from the National Tapestry YouTube Channel here   Thank you to our sponsor, Celebrity Word Scramble.

In this episode, James and Audrey examine the Saratoga campaign of 1777, in which British General John Burgoyne led an army south from Canada in an effort to cut New England off from the rest of the rebelling colonies. As Burgoyne’s supply problems mounted and the promised support from Barry St. Leger, William Howe, and Henry Clinton failed to materialize in time, American forces under Horatio Gates, Benedict Arnold, John Stark, and Daniel Morgan steadily gained the advantage. The hard-fought battles of Freeman’s Farm and Bemis Heights trapped Burgoyne’s army near Saratoga and forced its surrender on October 17. The victory persuaded France to enter the war as an American ally, transforming the Revolution from a colonial rebellion into a global conflict.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Emmet Kennedy is joined by one of racing's most respected pundits, Gavin Lynch, for a special episode of the Final Furlong Podcast recorded live at the Curragh Racecourse. It's never too early to talk about the greatest show on turf, so we look ahead to the new National Hunt season through the prism of the Cheltenham Festival 2027 Championship races. For the first time in four years, the Champion Hurdle is set to feature neither Constitution Hill nor State Man, while the annual Willie Mullins question of whether Lossiemouth runs in the Champion Hurdle or Mares' Hurdle is gone. So where does that leave the division? The defending champion is available at 5/2, and that's Gavin's first port of call.

The Grade 1 Travers Stakes is DRF's Saturday Race of the Day for August 29. David Aragona and Mike Beer offer their picks and analysis.

Bobby Doss and Wally Mulhearn open the episode by celebrating the milestone of reaching 201 shows and reflecting on listener engagement from Oshkosh and beyond. The main topic focuses on the first five minutes of flight, the phase where workload spikes as pilots manage engine start, avionics, passengers, and clearances before taxi. They stress the importance of sterile cockpit discipline once the engine is running to prevent distractions that can lead to incidents like runway excursions. Wally shares his approach to control checks before engine start and using checklists as verification tools rather than to-do lists. The conversation covers common checkride mistakes such as incomplete taxi readbacks that omit the assigned runway and failing to anticipate instructions by listening to other traffic. During the taxi to run-up phase, they highlight situational awareness in congested areas like the delta ramp at Hooks Airport and the value of positioning to allow space for others. Bobby outlines his three-part mental model of setup, decision point at run-up, and final go/no-go assessment while advocating for finding reasons not to fly rather than reasons to proceed. The takeoff decision includes the fifty-seventy rule for aborting if rotation speed is not achieved halfway down the runway and personal flows like lights, clocks, and fuel. In the initial climb they stress completing the after-takeoff checklist promptly to avoid configuration issues such as forgotten flap retraction. The episode closes with a listener challenge to develop and test a personal first-five-minutes flow along with a candid confession from Wally about once departing with a rudder gust lock still installed.

Send us Fan MailDale and Brian Karmie take a closer look at some of the Revolutionary War's most infamous “goats”—men who had the potential to be heroes but ultimately found themselves on the wrong side of history. From Charles Lee and Horatio Gates to Benjamin Franklin's loyalist son William and the infamous Benedict Arnold, they explore how ambition, selfishness, disloyalty, and poor decisions turned promising figures into cautionary tales.The conversation also examines John André, the British officer whose role in the plot with Benedict Arnold placed him on the “goat” list despite the honor and respect he demonstrated in the end. Throughout the episode, Dale and Brian reflect on a larger lesson from these stories: the difference between ambition that serves others and selfish ambition that puts self above country, relationships, and the greater good.Episode Highlights: Charles Lee's fall from favor.Horatio Gates and Saratoga.Benjamin Franklin's loyalist son.Benedict Arnold turns traitor.John André and honor in defeat.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on ForeverLawn:www.foreverlawn.comImpact Without Limits Instagram: @impact_withoutlimitsForeverLawn's Instagram: @foreverlawnincGet Grass Without Limits HereVisit our show notes page HERESubscribe to Our Newsletter HEREDale's Instagram: @dalekarmieBrian's Instagram: @bkarmieFind Our Shorts on the ForeverLawn YouTube ChannelThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

(Originally aired: 8/18/25)Season 10 is officially here, and we're kicking things off with a splash! Bunnie Xo sits down with Martin Riese, America's first certified water sommelier, to unpack the myths, science, and politics behind what we drink. Bunnie shares her own viral “water debacle” and what she learned from testing different sources, while Martin breaks down the subtleties of water taste profiles, the role of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), and the environmental toll of bottled water. Together, they clear the air on false claims about Mountain Valley's arsenic levels and stress the need for transparency and fact-checking in the industry.Martin also calls out the dangers of multi-level marketing schemes, debunks the rumor that sparkling water causes cancer, and highlights how basic chemistry and proper filtration can make all the difference. He taste-tests Saratoga, Mountain Valley, and even a rare 2,000-year-old Australian water with 1,300 TDS, while critiquing Perrier's lack of transparency. Along the way, he explains why RO systems and shower filters are worth the investment, and why America needs to improve its water infrastructure instead of relying solely on bottled brands.The conversation wraps with Martin previewing his upcoming app, Sourced, which will offer free, reliable water education, and a reminder to approach water debates with compassion, curiosity, and a commitment to the facts.Watch Full Episodes & More: YouTube
