The running world lost a bright light and we start the show on a somber note and pay our respects to the great Gabe Grunewald. Then we talk everything NCAA track and field starting with the men (11:52) and how old is too old for NCAA runners, talk about how the LRC crew missed Mondo Duplantis for some BBQ (34:38), have a little men's 800 talk including Bryce Hoppel and Clayton Murphy (41:31), before turning to the women's NCAA meet (46:25). Then it's 'Mom Audio' with the Brojo's mom going to NCAAs and loving the discus and buying tickets with Devon Allen and Tim Broe (64:40). Finally, the Brojos win a journalism award and are compared to Eric Sevareid (72:33). We end with an Oslo Diamond League preview (78:48).
