Johnston will talk about his career and how he got into the sport of harness racing.

Dave Briggs won the news/commentary category of the Hervey Awards for his story about the Classy Lane fires, and the barns being rebuilt. The story was in the January 8 issue of Harness Racing Update and provided raw details of how the area was working to re-build after the devastating fires. For Briggs, this is his ninth Hervey Award and his third in this category. Briggs will discuss his illustrious career with Mike and Mike, talking about how he got into the sport of racing and how his journalism career began.

Trainer Marcus Melander has a trotter that made a good amount of noise in 2018. He trains Fourth Dimension who made his presence felt in a good amount of stakes races for two-year-old trotters in 2017, but notably won the $464,650 Valley Victory at The Meadowlands and $59,400 International Stallion Stakes division at the Red Mile. Melander joins to discuss the future for Fourth Dimension and also talk about his career.
