Jeff Matthews was introduced to the music of Bruce Springsteen growing up in England.  His fandom built, and he eventually dove in head first.  He currently hosts the E Street Cafe Podcast, joined by two friends brought together by the music, and knowledgable sources in their own right.   You don’t have to be a huge fan of The Boss to appreciate this episode.  As much as anything else, it’s another example of someone pouring into their passion, and illustrates how the medium of music, and the shared experience of live music and can build connections.Support the showWe appreciate you listening to the Tinman Podcast!

Jaelin Howell, midfielder with Racing Louisville in the NWSL, is known as a hard-nosed player and fierce competitor.  She was a two-time national champion at Florida State and was awarded the Hermann Trophy, college soccer’s equivalent of the Heisman, in 2020 and 2021.  She has also earned multiple caps with the US Women’s National Team.  Being chosen by Louisville as the second overall pick in the 2022 NWSL draft turned out to be quite serendipitous, because as much as she plays all in all the time on the field, her commitment to giving back off the field is just as strong.  Her work with Down Syndrome of Louisville helped her earn the 2023 Nationwide Community Impact Award.  I’ve been a fan for quite a while, and this conversation with Jaelin Howell just solidified what I thought I already knew.Support the showWe appreciate you listening to the Tinman Podcast!

Darren Rogers is the Senior Director of Communications at Churchill Downs.  There are few people you can hear from heading into Kentucky Derby 150 that will have a deeper connection to the sport or the world's most famous track.  Darren can be found on media outlets around the state, around the nation, and around the world at this time of year, including as a co-host of the Inside the Kentucky Derby podcast alongside Kevin Kerstein.  I was lucky he took a few minutes to share some insights on this year’s Kentucky Derby field and the post positions.  Hopefully you can take a nugget or two that might help you as you watch or bet the race on Saturday. Support the showWe appreciate you listening to the Tinman Podcast!

Travis Stone, the Voice of Churchill Downs, is preparing to call Kentucky Derby 150, his tenth as track announcer.   He started with a bang calling American Pharoah's victory to start his triple crown campaign, and he's seen a little bit of everything since.  Travis grew up a short drive from another famous track near Saratoga, NY.   A career sparked by a childhood dream, his journey to the announcer's booth started when he raced marbles and matchbox cars on homemade race tracks sketched on his parents’ floors.  Whether he’s painting the picture of a thrilling stretch drive or capturing the sheer excitement of the Derby, Travis brings a perspective to horse racing that’s rooted in passion, honed by years of practice, and delivered with a voice that makes every listener feel like they’re standing alongside him from the best seat in the house. We talk about some of his strategies and preparation and the uniqueness of not just the Kentucky Derby race, but the entire build up.  And of course we talk about Kentucky Derby 150!Support the showWe appreciate you listening to the Tinman Podcast!

Scott Davenport is a national championship basketball coach at Bellarmine University.  He's also a horseman at heart, having developed a love for thoroughbreds and racing while growing up just blocks from Churchill Downs.  As we prepare for Kentucky Derby 150, it just seemed natural to check in with Coach Davenport.  We start with a little bit of discussion about Bellarmine and the state of college basketball.  He also talks about the pride in his childhood neighborhood putting their best foot forward at Derby time.  Then we talk about the Davenport Derby Dash, Louisville's newest Derby week tradition, kicking things off on Wednesday May 1.  The money raised benefits the Davenport Family Scholarship, which supports the programs student managers.  Items up for auction or raffle include a personal barrel of bourbon from Woodford Reserve.  You can check out information at the following link.https://one.bidpal.net/2024raffleddd/welcomeInside the Kentucky Derby - Around the Downs with Scott and Doug Davenporthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/inside-the-kentucky-derby/id1652895977?i=1000652749960Support the showWe appreciate you listening to the Tinman Podcast!
