Despite its name, Foxhunting isn’t necessarily about foxes, nor hunting, but it is an amazing sport that honors old traditions that are carried forward to this day. Scarlet coats, tall boots, beautifully turned out horses, and even a little port wine with breakfast, make the sport of following hounds across the countryside a spectacle to remember. Buck interviews Helena this week as she recounts a joyous return to a sport she fell in love with years ago.  Plus, Buck dishes about the best black bean burger in Newport. Listen in!

This week’s sponsors: Gurney’s Newport Resort & Marina and our media partner, The Newport Buzz.
