When you show someone buggy for the first time, one of the standard responses is, "Is there really a person inside that?" Usually there is, unless they're looking at something from Robobuggy, a team who is working to build an autonomous self driving buggy. We hear about the history of their organization, how they broke into the buggy community and became a beloved meme, some absurd technical challenges they've had to overcome, exactly how robobuggy works and their thoughts on the future of an autonomous buggy division.Guests: Carl Curran, Danielle Quan, Haley Dalzell, Trevor Decker, Vivaan Bahl and Zach Dawson

Over the past decade no team has dominated the Buggy scene like SDC, winning a record 8 years in a row on the men's side and 10 of the last 13 on the women's. Many see them as the "New York Yankees" of buggy, but it wasn't so long ago they were the underdogs fighting to take down a PiKA dynasty. We talk to SDC alumni from those teams that battled in 2008 and finally broke through with a course record in 2009, about what it took to make it to the top, and then contrast that with more recent alums who set course records in 2017 to see how the culture has grown to allow for such consistent excellence. We ask them how they deal with the pressure of so much success, what it's like being 'the bad guys' and how they see the future of buggy changing, or whether they will win indefinitely until the end of time.

This week we sit down with two multi-generational buggy families, the Clay's and the the Zapanta's. We talk about what it's like growing up in a buggy household, seeing your kid take up the sport you loved, how sharing that experience can strengthen family ties, as well as the heartbreaking sense of betrayal that comes from learning your daughter has decided to drive for PiKA.

We're joined by 4 of the original members of the Spirit Buggy team, who share the incredible underdog story of how they went from a brand new buggy team, to four years later setting a course record that shocked campus and would last 20 years. They share the challenges of starting from nothing, making it up as they went along, and trying to enter a very established traditional sport as an African American interest group who was seeking to integrate more strongly with the campus at large. A can't miss episode this is not just a great buggy story, but a great sports story. Featuring Robert Bowie, Tom Felmley, Dave Sowers and Matt Wagner

We sit down with current and past members of the BAA to hear how it evolved from a prank trying to poke at PiKA's proclivity to prevent photography, to a key platform documenting the history of the sport, to actively bringing us raceday enhancements like Jumbotrons, as well as current initiatives such as providing mentorship to new organizations. Sam Swift, Aiton Goldman, Michael Darcy and Ben Matzke are featured sharing their experiences and stories.

The 5 Senior Buggy Chairs* joined us to reflect on the most unusual raceday 2020: they share stories of their preparations for the year, their reactions to the news of the cancellation and reflections on their time as a part of this sport. Oh and of course some fun arguments over still sore spots from recent racedays. It's amazing to hear the bonds built between these frenemies in confronting the raceday that wasn't

This episode features 3 of the most recent Buggy Advisors, Rowshan Lang, Kaycee Palko and Lifetime Spirit of Buggy recipient Anne Witchner, as we get the staff perspective on what it is like working with generations of buggy obsessed students to help make raceday happen. They share plenty of stories from the decades of races they've seen, as well as details on the vital behind the scenes work they do, perspective on how buggy compares to other student organizations, what it's like advocating for buggy to the upper administration, the city and our neighbors and the challenges and rewards of working with us buggy maniacs.

This week we're joined by Mark Estes and Andy Bordick, two of the most outspoken characters in the buggy world. They have been bringing their hot takes to the yearly buggy broadcast for about 15 years and now have an unfiltered platform to share from their trove of buggy knowledge and opinions: we go over their history with a broadcast, their time as students, theories on what makes greatness in the sport and where they think everything is heading. And of course all of this is with none of the FCC regulations they're usually subjected to during raceday. Enjoy!

In our premier episode Will sits down with Tom Wood, the Buggy Historian. Tom has been involved with the sport for over 50 years and played a major hand in its history. Tom shared stories from how he got his start in buggy all the way up til now as well as reflections on what it means for the sport to be entering it's 100th year
