Open Wide: Unfiltered Opinions between a Dentist and her Patient2 Jun

The Horse Racing World Is Wilder Than You Think

Two big stories this week and both of them are worth your full attention. First: a United Airlines Boeing 767 coming in for landing at Newark clipped a light pole and then a bakery truck on the highway, with 231 people on board, and somehow everyone walked away fine, including the bread delivery driver who watched a plane wing come through his window on camera. Jenny and Susan have thoughts, questions, and a healthy amount of airport anxiety to process together.

Then the main event: Cherie DeVaux just became the first female trainer in 152 years of Kentucky Derby history to win the race, and her story is one of the most genuinely inspiring things to come out of sports in a long time. She grew up barrel racing in rodeos, started at the bottom of the industry as a hot walker cooling down horses after their runs, survived a serious fall that ended her riding career, competed in bodybuilding while figuring out her next move, and never stopped loving horses enough to walk away. Jenny and Susan break down what it really takes to win at Churchill Downs, the jockeys and their weight requirements, the stud farm life waiting for the winners, the six-pairs-of-goggles mud strategy, and why the rose blanket alone deserves its own episode. Subscribe, share this with the horse girl in your life, and tell us, did you watch the race?
