GOAT ZOOM ROOM Aviary Podcast Network

Brand New GZR as we get the "Sackmaster" Silas Demary on the show to discuss the impact on players after a traumatic experience on the football field. Andy and Silas both relive April 10, 2005 when Al Lucas sadly passed away from an injury that occurred during an Arena Football League game. How the league handled it. How the organization dealt with it as well. How it still impacts us today.
Brand new co-host James Moore also discusses how fans dealt with Damar Hamlin's cardiac episode. We ask Silas whether it would have been mentally possible to play a game after witnessing Hamlin's event while playing.
We finish up talking about Silas Demary Jr's commitment to University of Southern California and go down memory lane.

A new era for the Goat Zoom Room as not only will the podcast discuss horseracing but we will now be discussing all other sports.
Embarking on the new branding, GZR invited author Fred Segal who recently released "Freezing Cold Takes: Football Media's Most Inaccurate Predictions and the Fascinating Stories Behind Them."
Highlighting some of the stories in this wonderful such as Greg Cote's horrible Marino story. The media's awful take on Belichick and Tony Mandarich.
Andy, James, and Fred also discuss some other stories and tweets that didn't make the book.

Kaitlin and Andy are back with frequent contributor Andrew Champagne to discuss Saturday's Belmont Stakes and a few of the races on the undercard.
Andrew is all in on Flightline, Andy can't remember Andrew's name, and Kaitlin feels that Flightline could get beat away from California.
All three disagree on the winner of the Belmont Stakes.
They hope they can find a price to make the weekend a big winning one.

With Kaitlin Free off this week, Andy Villanueva(@avillanueva3rd) calls in reinforcements from "The XFactor Racing" Pod. Carson (@roguewolf007) and Nance (@Ohheyitsnance) join in on the conversation with recent Grade II winning jockey Tyler Conner (@tyler_conner519).
Conner just scored the biggest win of his career at Penn National in Grade II Penn Mile on Wow Whata Summer. Followed the entire night out with three wins, two seconds and third from seven starts on June 3rd.
Great conversation discussing how horse racing is in the family. We discuss how Motorcycle racing was what he began doing prior to his injury. Now he makes his living riding a different type of horsepower.
We get into his possible move to Kentucky and talk highly about super-agent Jose Santos Jr. He lets us know that Saffie Joseph has reached out to him to ride which is a big boost. Bring up how getting to a new colony is tough to break through at times.
Enjoy!
