Great interview.Outstanding!!! Larry does such a great job. He knows all the right questions to ask. He also has great guests I also love the banter when they go back-and-forth.
he should have asked "Magic" about the thousands of races he has fixed in the 80s at M1 with Manzi, Campbell, Gagliardi, Webster and a list of others--and all the cocaine and strippers he used to get his bets in.Here we have a bitter gambler that lost everything! Were you one of the three losers with Hollywood Hayden that used to have farting contests at the lower level Meadowlands?
Great interview indeed ngc3 ngc3

Comes across as a great guy in the interview but if you really know him, you are laughing hysterically because he was a grade A douchebag when he became famous. The O'Donnell that was racing at Foxboro and Saratoga was friendly and actually funny but once he became a star at M1 he believed he farted out rainbows and shit out diamonds. The "No Shit" response to AK revealed how little class he actually had. I'll bet you 10 million bucks JC wouldn't have answered that way.I agree with you Mike he changed but always treated me well.
Larry Rolla is a sick old man living in the past. He is trying to be relevant for all the wrong reasons.Just like somebody else we know although his podcast's fail and Larry's doesn't.
Larry couldn't train a dog to sit..if the race wasn't fixed, he'd get squatMaybe so but he's got one hell of a podcast!
Larry is the to tell all that he lived a crazy life and did what he did to stay alive.Larry has been through a lot I also applaud him on his fine podcast and guests!
Takes guts to do that. Very interesting person who seems like a nice person that regrets the things that he did as well as anyone that he hurt along his journey.
Give him a break, I’m sure suffered enough for his mistakes.
Larry is certainly getting up there in years, and he's starting to show/sound it, but that's fine. More than fine. I once heard a reporter say that if there was ever a nuclear war, only two species would survive, cockroaches and Cher. LOL. I always added Larry to that list, LOL. Larry's the proverbial cat, and with nine lives. LOL. Many people don't like him, and that's fine too.Larry is so entertaining he announced that he’ll be having JC on the podcast that should be fun!
Regardless, while it wasn't Mike Wallace, LOL, I absolutely, positively loved the interview. Kept me smiling throughout. One of the greatest drivers of all time. They didn't call him Magic no reason. I always loved Billy O. Back in the day, when their dominance started at the Meadowlands, it was like Ali-Frazier, and everyone had their guy. Billy O was always my guy. Period. To some extent, I think JC and Billy O were like Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, respectively, LOL. Everyone at some point plays to their part, and Billy did that because that's who he was, LOL. Thanks for the interview Larry...and Billy too!
Larry or anyone else at this stage of his life has zero reason to lie about past events, for gods sake he wrote a tell all book that pukes about all of the things that he did. I say kudos to him for doing so.tmbz1
I don’t know the guy but from what I see from him I love who he is now, humble, nice personality, funny, praises others all the time etc.etc.
Others his age that may have had a suspect past continue to fuck people around until the day they die. Larry seems to be the exception. I think he’s helped many people along the way. Good dude that got caught up in bad situations and had no choice but to do the things he did, what choice did he have.
Larry is Larry, love or hate him, he's honest, more honest than most.
Larry is so entertaining he announced that he’ll be having JC on the podcast that should be fun!
I like the line where Paula Campbell said, "My name is Paula, not John Campbell's wife." If you know Paula, and in the context of the story, that's who she is. Top notch person who has given so much to this industry. Her commitment, passion, and the work she's done for the SRF is unequaled and knows no bounds.She has always been a class woman. She represents the sport well.
tmbz1Larry has always been a good guy! Refreshing compared to the other podcasts in regards to harness racing.
Absolutely. Come to Jesus or whatever, he made some major changes in his life, and today's he's happy with who and what he is. I am glad for him. He's transparent, open and honest today with how he deals with people. As far as the book and who he used to be, to each their own.

Where does Billy Odonnell live? Does he train any horses or breed them on a farm? How about John Campbell and Ron Pierce. Where do they live? On a farm? Train a little or breed?
Thank you Grandstand Handicapper. Interesting and informative. I just pictured those guys living on a horse farm doing a little around the stables.
All these years on PLOP and I actually enjoyed and learned something without the craziness. What a breath of fresh air in a crazy world.tmbz1
What job does he do for the $100K / Year ?
He is President of COSA (Central Ontario Standardbred Association).tmbz1

He has some wonderful guests on. I love the stories that they tell. You’re nothing but a Yanta. Your podcasts are drab and depressing and lack character.

You’re the king of doom and gloom maybe harness racing is dead in your eyes, but not ours. Anybody can make up numbers with views and clicks you know that game pretty well. In the meantime, Larry is living in a nice home with family around him. He’s made a pretty good life for himself. How about you?
How many subs??? ngc3Your not in his league who have you interviewed? Answer NOBODY!

Like Billy O said, the one thing about this industry is that it gives people a second chance-----if they deserve it and take it. Larry was always a smooth-talker, hustler, etc. Like Jerry Silverman, LOL. Who Larry was, how he's gone through what he has, book and all, everything-----this is why Larry can show up to any industry event and be welcomed.I agree. He’s working on a TV series. He has two networks interested he can do nothing but help harness racing.

Silverman was all class. A true Hall of Famer. Rolla was everything that is and was wrong with Harness Racing. What he did deserves no second chance because he had about 10 chances and fucked them all up. Blow it out your ass, poser

Agree! Rolla is a fucking wannabe that never was! Cheated so many horsemen and thinks he is respected in the industry. What a fucking loser! tmbz1
