Horsing Around bucks the traditional athlete podcast. Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Pete Fairbanks throws the old format a curveball and hosts a range of guests to discuss the superiority of Brussels sprouts, play games like Watch, Re-Watch, Shelve, and, of course, honor the greatest Pokémon of all, Blaziken. There will not be an appearance from BoJack Horseman, but you will get Players Weekend style content, all of the time. Less deep, less researched, but way more entertaining than Revisionist History, this is Horsing Around.

Rays, But Make It Handball
Pete and Neil sit down to discuss the 2020ish Olympics. Pete redoes the Olympic logo, lists the 33 Olympic sports, and wonders which sports Rays players could excel at on the international stage. The guys then draft the Rays active roster for competing handball teams and realize they have limited size options. Who gets picked first? Who is cooking for the team? Who relives PE class and gets picked last? It’s not Horsing Around with Neil Solondz, this is Horsing Around with Pete Fairbanks!

Ninjas, Baby Deers, and the ABCs of Training
Pete brings in his strength coach, Tracy Fober, for a little horsing around with Neil. Tracy has coached athletes and Olympians in several sports including snowboard, skiing, volleyball, golf, and swimming. The group dives into the similarities and differences between snowboarding and relief pitching, sports sampling vs. sports specialization, alpine racers as football players, snowboarders as baseball players, and toddlers as exemplars of better form. You will learn about physical literacy, movement competency, and whether Luke Skywalker’s upbringing aptly prepared him for Jedi training.
