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.
