Hello, dear friends, welcome to the free trail podcast.

Of course, I'm your host, Dylan Bowman, here today with a special post-Hard Rock 100 episode recorded in conversation with my big brother, Jason Bowman. Long-time

listeners of the show will know that after the 2021 edition of the Hard Rock 100, Jason interviewed

me about the experience which we posted here in the podcast feed, an episode that to this day is

still one of our most popular ever. And now we are back to do it again, though in a race

with a very different result. Jason leads the conversation as the host. And I get to be a guest

on my own show, which is awkward, but also super fun. Jason was present in person

at Hard Rock last weekend. He witnessed my implosion, recovery, and eventual finish firsthand. So he

was well positioned to guide this conversation, what I thought was a really engaging direction.

I realize this episode is pretty self-involved,

but I hope our recounting and reflection

will be valuable for you,

the amazing listeners of the show.

Of course, we talk about the race,

the unraveling, the recovery, the finish,

and potentially the biggest question of all,

that being what comes next?
