Another Awesome guest (and PA member) Vic Stauffer

and some truly good industry stories.

36:30 = 'the Earthquake Call' = revisits one of the game's most famous race calls of all time.

This was genuinely one of the more entertaining Triple Clowns interviews from start to finish.

The Chris Koutoulak story was awesome. Koutoulak is literally the most boring horse racing announcer I ever heard. And apparently he had too big an ego to listen to Vic and bone up.

And that's why Vic got the job at HOL.

Entertaining, informative, and educational. A homerun for the Clowns and a credit to both Vic and the industry.

The Hollywood Park call gave me chills.

great interview, my favorite race call from Vic was when DECLAN'S MOON won the Hollywood Derby, "and its a total eclipse". the other's that everyone loves are great as well.

thanks triple clowns for bringing us this interview

Thanks Lambo. Declan was a very cool horse. Big fun.
