You need a sidekick, although I don't think RHT1985 fits the bill. Having another handicapper on your broadcasts will make them seem to go faster for the viewer and gives you someone to bounce ideas off of.

Not much to choose from in Erie. I could get Pops to do weekly profanity laced jockey rants but his energy would be better spent battling cancer.

Ogygian, a poster here from my gym, could come on and talk about how another horse will never run a 120 Beyer again and how Easy Goer needs a big race named after him.

No reason that person would need to be local.

There are methods to combine video clips into one.

He could rotate guests as co-hosts.

All very attractive females, with not much clothing on, preferably.

I certainly don't want to be a hater, but speaking of handicapping shows, what is the point of this one?

http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-raci...dicapping-show

Nothing against these guys, but if you're going to have a show, could you at least put more than 2 minutes of preparation into it and offer up some kind of insight that isn't painfully obvious if you glanced at the PPs yourself for 30 seconds?
