The Business-y Podcast Ep. 33 Dr. Hamid Shirvani on Iran

Jessica Paquette landed a job many females in thoroughbred racing are not very well known for: race caller. She gets very honest about her beginnings in the industry that is very well-known for nepotism, but is making a priority to tell women that they have a place -and now a voice- in the industry. It has not come without much criticism, much to Jessica's stubborn and spiteful nature to overcome.  The only female US race caller at Parx Thoroughbred Racing is making headlines and creating a path for women of the future.

Professional Thoroughbred Jockey Mike Smith came from humble roots in Roswell, New Mexico, riding quarter horses for his grandfather. Where that love of horses took him was around the globe and to the highest status a jockey could go. He is a Hall of Fame jockey, winning races such as the coveted Triple Crown, Irish Guineas, Queens Plate and Dubai World Cup.  Mike has been part of some of the most controversial moments in horse racing history also riding for trainer Bob Baffert. He takes us through the highs and lows, letting us inside of the man that never quit for a Triple Crown, and letting everyone know he wants to do it again.
