The Ride with JMV

Mainly sports, mixed in with pop culture. As likely to remember the participants from the 1987 Final Four and the top 10 songs on the charts that same week in 1987. No one is more connected when it comes to the Indianapolis Colts. And no one is in love more with Southern Indiana as JMV.

00:00 – 26:53 – On a Monday, JMV opens the show by providing his thoughts on the Brickyard 400 and the lack of fans that attended. He explains why it's been a tough time trying to make the event matter more. While he explains ratings are overrated, he explains why there's only so much you can do to make the event popular. 

26:53 – 44:05 – Kevin Lee from Trackside and Fox Sports joins and John asks him what IMS can do to boost the popularity of the event. JMV asks if it's possible to do the race the week after the 500 and why he wishes F1 was still here, while Kevin explains the differences as to why the Brickyard doesn't have as much of an appeal. Kevin comments on the Carson Kvapil controversy after he scuffed the yard of bricks. 

44:05 – 47:52 – JMV wonders if people out there know the origin of the Eastbay Dunk after video dropped over the weekend of Tyrese Haliburton doing it.

Gene touches on the importance of fans when you're in the music business and entertainment business at large. He also reflects on being a 6th grade teacher and how vital learning is. He also talks about the making of "I am Indianapolis".

1:12:53 – 1:26:24 – John wants to know if Tyrese Haliburton was able to throw down the Eastbay dunk BEFORE the achilles injury. Loyal listener Fulton had an accident at his softball game over the weekend and sends JMV the video accompaniment.

Then, Stephen Holder of ESPN joins to comment on if the CJ Allen PUP list designation is surprising. How worried the Colts should be with Alec Pierce still out, will they sign another WR? Plus, should we be shocked Daniel Jones is ready for camp and what should we expect when they start joint practicing with other teams? Stephen also outlines his biggest questions about the Colts heading into the year before we lose him due to the bad weather.

2:04:41 – 2:17:28 - JMV runs through the day's news of the Colts PUP listings, why there are more questions this year than last heading into camp, and looks at the training camp schedule
