—————————————————
The Against All Odds podcast is a true story of one man’s ride through the tainted world of horse racing – a world riddled with greed, corruption, celebrities, drugs, sex and the Mob.
Larry Rolla was a talented, respected trainer who invented new ways to fix aging and injured racehorses. Despite his success, his demons and his association with the Mob both helped and destroyed his life. He was involved with every phase of Thoroughbred and Standardbred racing, seen it all and done it all, learned how to duck and dive and live through it all. He is a unique man whose past most would not survive. More importantly, he was an extremely compassionate guy who took people with damaged lives and helped them as well, if he could. He liked fixing things that needed fixing.

Keep em coming Larry. I appreciate the videos. It's like Christmas morning every time I see another new one pop up in the feed.
Larry, I like your videos but have no interest in this down-under crap.
Taking up a collection to get Larry some more ink cartridges
Agree with the previous commenter and I commented about this Australian harness racing before. Nobody cares about it. I would be more interested in watching Amish buggy races
