    Very cool moment around 50:48-51:49 when Mario talks about wanting to be just like his dad as a 7 year old and seeing his daily work ethic to provide for his family. It hits Theo hard and he says, "wow, your dad must be so proud of you huh?" while holding back tears as if asking himself the same question introspectively.

    This is definitely one of his coolest, down to earth guest to date. I assume he makes close to 250k a year and is a rock star in that circle. Yet he is very humble. This is why I like success stories when people come from average-poor families. Idk why Theo kept trying to finish his sentences. It felt like he was rushing his responses, then I realized I think Theo subconsciously wanted to acknowledge that he understands him and to assist him in communicating, even though his English is very good.

    i was 20 minutes in, and listening like a normal pod cast. Then as time went on, the conversation and flow just got better and better. one of the best podcasts this year i've heard.. very interesting, and Nick asked some great questions. it was good to get an incite from such a talented jockey. i am a gambler myself lol... would be epic if Theo could own his own horse 'dark arts' -- or he could ask us to donate into a syndicate and his fans own it and share the winnings too. Good one guys.. BTW, down here in Ocenia, australia / NZ we have some talented female jockies like Mario says they are everywhere... AND in the UK one of the best jokies is a female.

    As a girl who started riding tough little ponies in England, it's nice to see a guy with the same feel for horses that I discovered I had. Back then people kept telling me I was good, everybody noticed it, but I was just having fun. I loved riding. What I didn't know was that they kept giving me the worst ponies to ride because they would do anything for me when with other people they were just mean and stubborn. For me, they were beautiful. The stable even asked me to do a demo ride for the British Olympic trainer when I was 12. Couldn't do it, though because my dad was military and we were moving away. I never rode again, but I've always loved finding some barn work to do just to be around the horses again, and I've still got that thing with the difficult ones, the ones you get a feel for and who instantly respond to you. That's a real kinship. I've been around many horse lovers and good riders, but I've never seen anyone who has that same feel til now, and it hit me the moment I saw this guy. Oh, yeah, he's special. He's got that thing I have. It's not a skill, it's just a thing you have or you don't, and when you're matched with those certain horses with potential, look out. They're hard to beat. This was a great interview, lovely man. (And yes, it's absolutely true what he says about the mares. Compliment rhem, flatter them, be sweet to them, especially the really bit@hy ones. They're much easier to work with when you do.)

    I loved this episode! I’m a college athlete and hearing peoples routines, struggles and overall experience in serious sports is awesome and there is so much overlap. Also I wrestle so the weight aspect of racing horses was interesting to learn about.

    Somehow missed this upload. I fancy myself a horseman, owned a racehorse, and was learning the training side of things around 2014-2015. You’re the man Theo and Mario definitely won me few dollars before

    Great episode, the guy came from very poor beginings and worked hard to make something amazing of himself. Very down to earth and not pretentious. Definitely looking forward to the Theo ig stories from a horse race. Gang son.

    I don't know about the rest of yall but I have scrolled through Theo's content looking specifically for these kinds of "everyday" people interviews. I love everything Theo does but there's something so endearing about the Rat King giving the "working class" a platform to express themselves.
