that was a wonderful listen thanks all
at last an aggressive thoughtful answer to people calling for a ban on horse racing well done Matt ..there are 14000 horses involved in racing ,what on earth do they think is going to happen to them .11 million pigs a year die in the UK .it pales into insignificance
the most enjoyable yet .Willie Mullins once again showed himself as a humble decent man but with a steely determination,not easy qualities to keep under one fedora..well done all
Great show again ..the interviews really help .I think paddy has mental issues .good man tho
