Imagine a sport that is like basketball but on horses and the ball is is a goat carcass. That's Buzkashi, the national sport of Afghanistan. It came about during the 10th century when nomadic tribes stole goats from each other and is incredibly popular in Central Asia. Kyle and Jheisson do a shallow dive into the sport and gab about their Thanksgivings, Korean BBQ and not getting covid.
