Times up!

I'd imagine I can say this without worry about huwting your widdwe feewings...

I liked it a LOT. I like you voice, your expressiveness (is that a word?), that you don't sound like you're talking down to anyone, the information, the clips you used, everything BUT BUT BUT BUT you need to try to stop saying ummm and uh so much.

Watch one minute, any minute, and count how many times you do this. (I haven't and won't. I'm not judging you here. I'm only trying to help) and I think you'll see what I'm saying.

That aside, Mr. Eye Candy, it's really really good.

Talking at a laptop is very akward.

The ummm and uh stops when you have bullet point notes for transition. I took Oral Communication in high school.

Another horse from Doug's first podcast came back to win today at Turfway at 30-1. I only wish I had enough sense to play him.

Credit where credit is due. Great job Doug!

I appreciate that Paul!! It would have looked a lot worse if I posted about it.

He won wire-to-wire by more than 8 lengths at 30/1 odds...on the stretch out to a mile just like he figured.

Hopefully a few people got something out of the videos I did.

Platonium's last race is talked about at the 13:15 mark.

Very cool. That horse had insane pace figures on my numbers, stood out as big time lone speed today.
