In honor of Lafayette native and former LSU great Mondo Duplantis’ gold medal-winning pole vault in the just completed Olympics in Paris, we’re replaying host Pam Bordelon’s conversation with filmmaker Brennan Robideaux about his film, Born to Fly, the intimate story of Mondo and his rise to fame from child prodigy to the greatest pole vaulter of all time. His jump of 6.25m (that’s more than 20 feet!) was the ninth time he's broken the world record.
