In this episode of the Break the Ice Podcast, we welcome back "Good Looking Sal". I share insider tips from my trip to Saratoga for the Belmont Stakes and recommend podcasts for road trips.

We discuss player rivalries, like Caitlin Clark vs. Angel Reese, and their effect on women's basketball viewership.

We end with our future plans, including "Cooking and Booking" ,and encourage listeners to follow us for more content.
