In this special If You’re Hot, Stay Hot Derby breakdown, JB and Ben take you from “I’ve never watched a horse race” to confidently placing bets before the gates even open.

We cover:

• How the Kentucky Derby actually works
• What all the weird terms mean (pace, lengths, stalkers, closers)
• The bets that can turn $2 into something ridiculous
• And, of course… the horses

From favorites to longshots to pure chaos picks, nothing is off limits. We’ll tell you who we like, who we don’t, and why some horses have absolutely no business winning.

Whether you’re here to gamble or just not sound dumb at a Derby party, we’ve got you.

Let’s talk horses.
