Oklahoma Today Podcast: December 9, 2024

His epic mustache alone remains iconic in Oklahoma City, and his Blazers hockey team rocked the old Myriad in an era before the capital city turned major league. Coach Doug Sauter is a sports legend in the state, but what is the Saskatchewan native up to these days? Well, wonder no more. We caught up with him recently—and yes, he's still in Oklahoma. Sauter shows off his prized clydesdales and percherons at the Express Clydesdales Barn in Yukon, then we sit down to catch up with the coach on his own land a few miles away. What's harder, coaching hockey players or coaching horses? And what does he think of the old Myriad site being used for the new Oklahoma City arena? He answers all—and then some.

Also on this week's show, the editors share their favorite breakfast destinations in the state, and podvents gets a visit from Jimmy Stewart (sort of). You won't want to miss it!
