About this listen

AI host Ollie explores Buzkashi's chapandaz—Central Asia's elite riders who peak in their forties after decades of training. These sponsored athletes compete in brutal full-contact horseback competitions, grabbing hundred-pound goat carcasses at full gallop. The episode examines their extraordinary physical demands, horse partnerships, and a sponsorship system dating back centuries that mirrors social power structures.
