DanShan is back and the world of Zed Run lending has arrived whether we’re ready or not. For current Zed Run stable owners the way to lend horses is simple. You stake 250 Zed tokens on the lending market to receive a permit. Then with the permit you can add horse to the market. If someone chooses to borrow it a four day contract will be initiated then you’ll split the winning while they have it. Pretty simple stuff but we go into pretty deep detail of the ramifications for the game going forward. We plan on lending out to each other soon to see how it all works and tank each other’s donkeys to oblivion.
The Strategy Behind Z268sWe also get some great breeding insight for the Z268 tourneys. DanShan really knows his stuff and I can’t wait to try his system out for myself. Definitely worth trying considering the cost to breed them.
Thoughts On 6 Horse Races
Six horses races have now been rolled out in an experiment and boy are they fun. Although there are concerns in regards to data analytics I think that’s an easy fix and it only creates more fun. Very encouraging to see and the fact they fill up so quick will only increase user involvement. Paid races in Zed Run needed this exciting little change.
Everybody Loves A Good Nood
Zed Noods are here! Honestly the nightmares haven’t stopped since I saw them. We kind of go off the rails here but sweet fancy Moses these things are terrifying. View at your own discretion.
Our First Zed Run Horse Giveaway!Last but not least we do our first giveaway! Huge thanks to DanShan for donating and congrats to Tad8754 for the win! Make sure you reach out to us to get your horse!

On Episode 2 we discussed how to buy a horse, but things change quickly in the Zed Run landscape so we wanted to make sure to clarify a few things. As more tools become available and easier to use there's never been a better time to make informed decisions when buying a Zed Run horse.
Speed Kills
As Blake said, “fast horses breed fast horses.” At the end of the day the more speed you have in the stable the more things you can do with it. Remember you want your breeding pairs to have matching distance preferences so keep that in mind when building your stable early on. Matching those distance preferences with similar high-speed horses in the same distance goes a long way toward building confidence in how you build your stable from within. Like most things, research is a major key. The more research you do, the easier it becomes to spot advantages and excellent pairings.
Things To Look ForWhen evaluating speed you ideally want to find horses that flash elite numbers in more than one distance. If you have two horses that flash hard at 1200m and 1400m they probably make a good breeding pair. If they have a matching tank distance even bigger bonus. One thing we've honed in on lately is finding those pairs with matching DP and tank distance preferences. With things ever changing in Zed Run, this seems to be a combo that has held strong in breeding 2.0.
Market ChangesA couple of months ago you could pretty much only buy horses on OpenSea. Now Hawku and others have stepped up as viable alternative markets. To be able to buy and sell on Hawkuyou'll need to purchase a very small amount of the MATIC token to bridge the transactions. Also, make sure you check if a male is in the stud barn before you buy! Happened to me twice lately.
Waiting on a few more entries for our free horse giveaway before we do the first one so please head over to Apple Podcasts and leave a five-star rating review. We need the review so I have your screen name to enter the raffle. Good luck everyone!

So as we’ve learned more about Zed Run breeding 2.0, it seems like not only is base ability and distance preference passed down, but variance most definitely is too. I’ve seen this firsthand with a new breed I just did Melrose Avenue. Definitely was able to get her mother’s high variance to go with her father’s distance preference. That goes a long way towards helping improve the line a little. Now going forward it doesn’t appear breeding lotto tickets will really hit like they used to. I could definitely see them tweaking the variance in new horses going forward for a breeding 3.0 update, though. I get they don’t want variance luck to be the only way to build a stable but there needs to be a balance with skill and some luck sprinkled in.
Perhaps the biggest nugget to drop was it seems progression is on the way. Horses will essentially have their power score and a potential score and it will take the best horse management to get the most out of it. This is a great development and gives me hope that a Zed Run version of Seabiscuit is out there. A perceived donkey that can thrive in the right hands. Can’t wait to see how this works out going forward. This could lead to an entirely new strategy for both breeding and racing.
Six horse races are now being experimented with a week after the screenshot was shared showing head-to-head racing. This is, hopefully, all leading to customizable private races where smaller communities can compete among each other without fear of getting killed by the bigger stables. If small stables only exist to kick up cash to the bigger ones the game is in trouble. In a perfect world, though, this is all laying the groundwork for that type of expansion.
Becca from Zed Run is doing some class system user feedback sessions so I’m guessing the changes there are coming soon. The game still has Its kinks to work out but, at end of the day, it’s still in beta testing and will take some work in the short term to achieve its full potential.
I’m working on a breeding spreadsheet that appears to be really helping me. Once I get it fully dialed in the template will be available right here for you to download and use yourselves. Appreciate all the support everyone and please reach out to @ZedPodcast on Twitter if you have any questions. Good luck out there!

After a week of studying (and some wild highs and lows) I was able to go over the Zed Token white paper and figure a few things out. Good thing BG was available to come on and help clarify things about the air drop and the future of the token going forward. The distribution still hasn’t quite been completely figured out but as BG says in the episode he’s figured out about 70% of it. The tier system still leaves a lot of questions there but since that was the only air drop it’s probably best to focus on coin distribution going forward. Ideally they’ll give us ways to spend it before they begin rewarding it to help keep the supply and demand in check.
However the token is available to buy and trade on a couple of exchanges such as SushiSwap and MEXC. Be careful as you would with any crypto investment but if you’re looking to stockpile before the game switches over to the coin you can find it to purchase there.
Now the big token related news this week was the announcement that lending is coming any day now. This has the potential to give a lot of horses value and onboard new players with minimum risk. It appears as if you’ll stake tokens for a lending permit then enter the lending market. Any profits made by the horses will be split between lender and borrower. No word as of writing this if the number of permits will be capped at a certain number or if they’ll be given out each month in a lottery type system.
There was also a very interesting screenshot posted by Zed creative director and co-founder Chris Ebeling on twitter. He showed a shot if two horses running down a two lane track in what we can only hope means head to head racing is coming soon. There’s been a serious problem with the competitive balance in the game and something like this will give every horse a chance to win a little by making the matchups as even as possible. This is the kind of thing that can lead to party mode and other ways casual players can enjoy the game without getting beat up by the top 1% of players.
BG also shares with us his plans for zandyland.run which will be coming soon and should be a major player in third party tournaments and other contests. It’s really cool seeing so many developers working hard to give horses a value outside the main game. It would be nice if Zed followed the communities lead more often and figured out ways to give even the worst horses a chance to win something. Obviously they’re not running a charity here but stable and player numbers are going down for a reason and lack of ways to win a little money is one of them. Big thanks to BG, DanShan, Zombie Racing and others who are really doing some incredible work here. I’m excited to see what people do going forward and hopefully we can keep it all evolving and finding new ways to get enjoyment from the game.

Well the big day finally came! Zed Token is here and so far it’s been a wild ride. On Thursday morning stable owners awoke to their wallets having a nice surprise in the form of Zed Tokens. Based upon a June 1st 2022 snapshot Zed stable owners were rewarded based on horse ownership, number of paid/free races completed, number of horses bred with your mares, number of studs entered into barn, skin ownership and more. So depending on your ownership and activity you were allotted so much based on what tier activity level you fell in. 34.7% of the tokens have been set aside for this play and earn feature so more is coming down the line. As of this writing the coin has been as high as $0.1934 per coin with several stables being rewarded thousands of coins so it’s definitely triggered some major buying and selling. Zed Token tournaments (courtesy of our dude DanShan) and poker games have immediately popped up with the community wasting no time to find utility for the coin. With Zed just launching the token and not announcing the uses for it in game yet it seems there’s a lot of potential here.
Thanks for checking this episode out everyone I hope this helps clear up any immediate questions and concerns and make sure you check out our next episode and post where we’ll help everyone set goals that will help you get the most tokens available in the distribution pool for your stable no matter the size. Remember this is NOT A FINANCIAL ADVICE show. I can’t really speculate here about the long term prospects of the coin or cryptocurrency in general. But this is easily the biggest development in Zed since I started playing and I’m excited to see where it all goes. Spend wisely and never feel any shame for cashing out money if you need it.

Everyone in Zed knows how fatigue can negatively impact our horses. If you run them too much they won’t perform until the stamina meter goes back up. Well, we as humans are the same and it’s important to keep that perspective. Avoiding burnout and exhaustion is important to having a fun experience with whatever you do whether it’s Zed Run, fantasy football, or golf. Okay, those are the only things I do. But doing these things in balance is important so we decided to take an episode to make sure we’re not going to flame out like Dick Vermeil. Sure we talk about the new tourney tracker and some other Zed things but this was a great time to confront the fact that it’s okay to step away from the game occasionally and it won’t hurt. You can recharge and gain a new perspective that will help you going forward. Feel free to hit us up on Twitter @ZedPodcast if you’re stressed or need to vent about something. As a community, we must take care of each other when things look grim. Thanks for your support of the show, we can’t wait to keep learning and growing with the game and all of you!

Back in the saddle again this week with our guy DanShan and it’s a beauty. Since he was last on, we’ve come a long way with our analytics and we got another lesson in peak performance this time as well. DanShan has scrapped his old StackedNaks and replaced it with ZLead. I’m a huge fan of the new site and love what he’s done with it.
ZLead has all the analytical data and charts we loved on StackedNaks but also provides a lot of stuff sites like Know Your Horses and Hawku have. It really is an all in one comprehensive tool that has pretty much everything you need. The Speed Chute is a simple chart that really helps you figure out where your top speeds are coming from. Plus the site is a great tool for finding horses on the open market complete with purchase links on Hawku. Definitely check it out and of course DanShan is always available on twitter (@Spotonparts) to answer any questions via DM. Easily one of the coolest guys in the world of Zed we love having him on and he’ll definitely be back soon.
We also discussed the new Top Six paid races and agree that they are really something the game sorely needed. Now they’re not true double-ups it would be great to see that next but it’s a solid start. On a $2.50 Top Six the payouts can vary with the price of ETH so in a recent one I ran the prize pool was $26.31. Payouts were: 1st-$8.42 2nd-$5.78 3rd-$4.21 4th-6th-$2.63. For this particular race the entry fee was $2.19 at time of writing this since the price of ETH has gone down from when the race occurred. We came to a consensus that these races are extremely valuable because as he said it “I either win $.50 or get to downclass at the worst.” That sums it up perfectly and these races just made more horses out there worth running in paid races. Good move by Zed and I hope to see more of these type of things. The C5/6 $1 races are alright but these have already provided me with hours of entertainment and caused me to reevaluate everything to make sure I’m running the right horses in these. I’m working on a top six profit chart I hope to have ready soon.

We’re back again and even though we haven’t reached ten episodes we already have our first success story. That’s right our baseball editor here at SGPN Blake Meyer got into Zed when we started doing the show and has since built up an impressive stable with solid success. He’s an absolute maniac pounding dozens of races a day and showing some damn good results lately. Check out his progress in the SGPN Slack Channel with daily reports. Seems like he’s always winning at least 15% of his races and 100% blames us for getting involved like this.
A big factor in his success has been focusing on speed. I kind of scoffed at race times for a while. It seemed like there wasn’t much of a gap in times from class to class. But using them to establish kilometers per hour and then comparing those top speeds to the median seems to have some serious value. Especially looking at fastest in last 90 days. That keeps you fresh and always with what’s currently happening in the game. Changes in Zed happen so frequently and it looks like more are on the way so it’s good to stay in the moment in your evaluations. To quote our own Ryan “Real Money” Kramer “there’s a reason why the windshield is bigger than the rear view.”
It’s so amazing to see Blake grow with the show and lap us in terms of picking and managing winners. It shows that with the right approach and trusting the data you can get it going in the right direction quicker than later. I’m excited to see where he’s at in a few months with his stable and evaluations. If you’re finding the show helpful and have things to add or confirm something that’s worked feel free to reach out to [email protected] or hit us up on Twitter @ZedPodcast and Instagram @zedgamblingpodcast. Big thanks to everyone out there that’s reached out or left a review. Make sure you leave a five-star rating and leave a review on Apple Podcasts to enter our contest to win a FREE horse!

Look no one likes losing. For those of us with a competitive streak, the idea of it is revolting. But in Zed Run, the ability to take some losses to stay in your winning range is a must. Not everyone has the firepower to hang in the higher classes. The worst thing that can happen is getting a horse stuck in C1 that you can’t get back down to a competitive level. You have a good horse that can’t win. I have one of those and it’s very frustrating. But what we’re going for here is using the data we have to put ourselves in the class we can be most competitive.
Now if you have a horse that’s in discovery it’s easy to find a weaker distance and pound that in hopes of being assigned a lower class out the gate. But not everyone will have that opportunity so my advice is to go to stackednaks.com or mjinformatics.com and learn to dial in where you’re more likely to finish in the 8-12th range. When you find a horse that has a distance preference for winning odds are they have one for losing too. Look around at some of the top stables and how they run their horses. You’ll see them hit the podium followed by bottom three finishes pretty regularly. Let’s not kid ourselves a 25% winner is incredible and extremely rare. They're still not winning 75% of the time. Let's understand that and try to use those losses to our advantage. By continuing to monitor your results and making the proper adjustments to the data you can get there much easier than entering races blindly.
Zed Bulletin: New features continue to be rolled out and the quick entry might be my favorite to date. Instead of guessing where others are entering you just have to be one of the first twelve to enter. Well done they must be listening to the show...On the other hand, the Z11-100 tournament was something of a disaster. Way too big a range there. Asking Z75s to compete with Z12s is just ridiculous. I'm all for specialized tourneys that get more people involved but let's be realistic about the competition in these fields...The Budweiser sponsorship seems to be turning some heads and getting noticed in the mainstream community. These types of deals give a lot of hope for the long-term health of the game...Make sure you leave a five-star rating and review at Apple Podcasts to have a chance at our first FREE HORSE GIVEAWAY. We’ll be doing the first one in the next few weeks.

For this week's episode, we had the pleasure of catching up with Tomi from Zed Bets who has a wild story about his involvement with Zed that culminated with the first Digital Derby in Las Vegas. His stream with partner Sean on Twitch was the first one in the Zed Run space to offer parimutuel odds and gives a real glimpse into the future potential of the game. I met him at the first live Zed event I attended here in Las Vegas for the Kentucky Derby and loved the backstory and what these guys have already been able to accomplish in this space. Hopefully, the red tape and all the legal stuff get worked out and we’re all able to download his Zed Bets app one day so we can place irresponsibly large wager on our horses. It’s people like Tomi with their creative spirit and ingenuity that truly make Zed Run an exciting place to be.
Zed Bulletin: With the recent uncertainty in the cryptocurrency market at large Zed announced on their blog that they’re moving 80% of the WETH supply into USDC to stabilize the game a little and ensure the payouts keep coming…the Belmont Stakes event at StarbaseLV was a great way to close out the Hybrid Triple Crown Series. GVG Genetics took down the big prize for the stables competing and there were even a couple hours of an open bar! Hopefully, we see more of these in the future as they bring the community together in a fun way…Speaking of live events I’m looking to get one together the first week of the NFL season in September. Ideally, we can line up a venue and get something fun together…NYC skins are available to everyone that enters ten paid races by 6/19…follow up to the Analytics with MJ episode, after going a couple of months in tourneys without hitting a quarterfinal podium I’ve now cashed two weeks in a row with a 3rd and 2nd place finish. Got killed in both semifinals but I’m moving up!

For episode 6 we were finally able to crack a puzzle we've been working on for a while. MJ of MJ Informatics comes on and takes us on a deep dive into his advanced analytics site. It opened up our eyes to a much bigger picture in terms of horse evaluation. His tools give you several data points and charts to get a clear idea of what you're working with when you're out on the track. His background in gaming, analytics, and more makes attention to detail something to behold. In addition to all the horse analysis, he also offers a StableView page where you can look at your entire stable in sort of a “cheat sheet” mode. We ask him about some of our weird theories and he handles them with graceful professionalism. We’re having him back next month as a part of our FREE HORSE GIVEAWAY!
To get your chance to WIN A FREE ZED RUN HORSE all you have to do is head over to Apple podcasts and subscribe to the show then leave a 5* rating and review. We’ll add the screen names from the reviews to a digital wheel and spin it for our winner! Thanks to our amazing guests DanShan and MJ we now have TWO horses we’ll be giving away and hopefully more on the way! Only one win per review is allowed. Each review will be submitted to each drawing until it wins.
Random notes: the Zed Run open class rollout continued with a swing and a miss on the Z200-267 tournament. The Z268 was a funny novelty early on but if they want to maximize user fun maybe it would've been better to do a Z50+ tourney or something else that could be bred quickly. Breeding fuels the tournament economy so it only makes sense to make the breeding required for the events to be more manageable and realistic...Saturday, June 11 4:00 StarbaseLV will host another live Zed Run event after the Belmont Stakes. If you're in Vegas get your free tickets here. Two drink minimum...Changes to tournaments remain ongoing with a controversial new prize pool split among each round. If it encourages more players I'm all for it. We don't need whales killing us every tourney to just keep pulling ahead of the pack. Free tourneys should help level the playing field a little.

For this week's episode, we had the fortunate opportunity to speak with one of the top minds in the Zed Run community, DanShan. He is definitely one of the hardest working stable owners in the game today and his knowledge is unparalleled when it comes to building a stable. A professional sports bettor and oddsmaker by day he brings a unique angle to a space dominated by computer scientist types. His website stackednaks.com gives you a great perspective on horse performance and will help you get the most out of your stable. His blood tool is one of the most advanced breeding tools in the game and comes with all the bells and whistles to give you every advantage possible in the barn and on the track.
In addition to all that he offers one of the top third-party racing platforms. With a wide menu of contests that allow for more ways to maximize profits on each horse. His double-ups and 357 tourneys are a great way to earn off horses that have trouble consistently reaching the podium. I truly feel his work in this area has forced Zed to begin offering a wider variety of formats.
It was a blast talking to DanShan and we’ll have him on again soon make sure you check out stackednaks.com for his tools and tourneys along with his impressive list of horses for sale.
Random notes: Starbase Las Vegas is hosting another event for the final leg of the Triple Crown. Tickets are free and available on Eventbrite however there is a two-drink minimum...this week marked the first all Z268 tournament and the cross-only tournament which seemed to have sparked a breeding frenzy. Breeding is really what fuels tourney money so expect to see more of this type of stuff and gives you a chance to have fun with it trying to find the right combinations to qualify for the open class events...we will be running our first promotion soon. Everyone that leaves a five-star rating AND review on Apple podcasts or has already left one will be entered into a raffle for a free horse. Keep an eye out here for the winner and of course, listen to the show for more details...next week's special Fibonacci Cup will be elites only so make sure you get that blue blood elite ready for it. I’ll be looking to make a statement with my Z11 Nakamoto Elite Oops My Bad and my Z19 Finney Elite Juice On The Loose.

In the world of Zed Run breeding makes up a huge portion of the game. With the game constantly evolving and the new conditional tournaments, being able to cheaply breed a horse on your own to compete in these events will only become more valuable. Now it isn’t cheap and I’m not about to pretend to have this part of the game dialed in yet but it is fun to smash horses together and see what you get! Hopefully, we can run through the basics for you here and give you some insight into the process.
When you open the breeding tab it will ask you to select a horse. If you own the male it will be placed in the stud barn where others can pay you a fee or you can breed between horses in your stable (I don’t recommend this. It’s cheaper to set up a second wallet address and stable and do it that way.) Now with your female, you’ll either select your male in the stud barn. If you're looking for something specific you can use the filters to find your stallion of choice. After you select your mate you’ll see the procreating screen then bam you will have your new horse.
Now only two genesis can breed a legendary and only two crosses can make a pacer. Depending on how you arrange the breeding pairs the chart goes as follows: Genesis-Legendary-Exclusive-Elite-Cross-Pacer
Now to me personally the major benefit of breeding IF you have the proper pieces is being able to potentially get a great racer at a discount. The problem is you may have to try it a couple of times with the same pair to get that big winner or find out you have a couple of bad breeders. It can be expensive. It’s cheaper in my mind right now to buy solid racers on the market for below the breeding costs. They’re out there.
Random notes:
-Starbase Las Vegas has been having a great series of live Zed events for the Triple Crown races. According to my source, this is going to be a monthly thing going forward. The next one will be the Belmont Stakes on June 11th. If you’re in Vegas that weekend it’s a must-attend event. 12 free horses are given out at each event.
-Social media logins are now available for new users. Great news for expanding the game and getting new users in. People will also be able to rent a horse for an hour to try it out before making their first purchase. I get the feeling we’re going to see a ton of new stables soon.
-Conditional tournaments are finally here! The first Fibonacci Cup Pacers-only tourney went off well and drew a ton of great reviews. Next week will be a Cross only tourney as they work up the breed type ladder. There will be specific tourneys for different Z numbers and bloodlines as well. Huge news for the game as it gives way more value to several existing horses and gives stable owners a reason to breed more.

There are many aspects to Zed Run but at its heart it’s a digital horse race game. The fun part of it is racing and always will be. So after you jump through the hoops and buy a horse it’s time to run it! The Zed menu makes it easy to navigate and get going real quick. Let’s take a look at the different types of races they have on there.
When you click on the Racing tab click Events now depending on your horses experience level you’ll either start in a class already or work your way up through the Griffin/Discovery process.
Griffin Race
A Griffin Race is a Zed horses first race. In North American horse racing we call them Maiden Races and same logic applies. In Zed all types of horses that will later be in a variety of classes all compete together in Griffin races.
Discovery Races
A Griffin Race is the first leg of the Discovery process. There’s been recent changes to it but basically you compete in ten races to earn a score and get your class assignment. This is a great time to experiment with different distances.
Paid Races
The name explains it all. You pay a fee to get in and then the prize pool is split between win, place, and show (1st/2nd/3rd). Prize pool is split 60/25/15. Zed used to take a small rake but now it’s split evenly down the line. Races are based on US dollar amount but in wrapped ethereum.
Free Tourneys
Free races are apart of a daily tournament structure. Click on tournament rules to get scoring details for each format. You need to race at least five races in a specific distance funnel to qualify in a tournament quarterfinal. Races from all funnels will count towards your score but you can only qualify in one funnel per tournament. Free races will count towards your stats and class standing but you only get paid upon reaching the quarterfinals and finishing in top three there no matter the format.
Third Party Tournaments
There are several people offering third party Zed Run tournaments now. I think some of the stuff that DanShan and Zombie Racing are doing is particularly interesting. Both are doing their best to create an environment where more horses can be profitable. Even deadbeat trash donkeys! DanShan has double ups which I especially like. I think Zed could definitely take a page from daily fantasy companies and offer a wider variety of contests from millionaire maker type events to basic $2 doubles ups.

Since the days of kings racehorse ownership has signified a status symbol among the elite. Well thanks to Zed Run us common peasants can get in on the action and feel like nobility. With this simple step by step guide you’ll be able to buy your horse and get your stable going in no time.
Step 1. Set up MetaMask wallet
Easy to find app that will serve as your main tool for logging in and out of Zed Run and sites like Hawku and OpenSea where you’ll actually be purchasing the horses.
Step 2. Add ethereum to wallet
There are several ways to purchase ethereum including directly on MetaMask. I suggest you find an exchange that you feel comfortable with that has Lowe fees and transfer to MetaMask.

In zed wallet bridge ethereum to polygon
Purchase small amount of MATIC
Step 5. Find your horse
Use filters on knowyourhorses and hawku to find what you want
Step 6. Buy horse on opensea/hawku
You can pay the current asking price on several and get them right away or try putting a bid in and see if they accept.
Step 7. Race your horse
Switch back to ethereum main network
Go to Zed run
How to Transfer horses
Step 1. Copy wallet address in zed
Step 2. Go to other stable
Step 3. Click settings
Step 4. Transfer will be first thing
Step 5. Click transfer
Step 6. Paste address. It will show the stable you’re transferring to. Double check and confirm.
Step 7. Wait a few minutes. Be patient.

Welcome to the Zed Run Gambling podcast! We’re looking forward to pulling back the curtain and showing you how the Zed Run game works and how to get involved. For the first few episodes we’ll walk you through the process and give you the building blocks to get the most out of your stable. Check back each week after you master the basics for interviews with the top stables in the game and updates on the fast changing landscape of the Zed ecosystem.
Our hosts Scott Bowser, Chase Sessoms, and Malcolm Bamford bring a unique combined skill set of handicapping, data analysis and degeneracy to the table with decades of experience horse gambling. Using models that have worked for horse handicapping in the past and incorporating new ones from things like Daily Fantasy we hope to bring a fresh perspective to the world of Zed Run.
Zed Run is a digital horse race game using NFT horses and cryptocurrency on the blockchain for a user owned horse racing experience unlike any other. Build, breed and race your stable in a game that runs 24 hours a day/seven days a week for nonstop action in the metaverse. It was actually inspired by a game called Crypto Kittens where people could own and breed kittens as NFTs on the blockchain. Problem is no one gambles on kittens so Zed Run was born. The game has now evolved in a short period as changes get rolled out almost every month.
Thank you so much for checking out this Welcome to Zed Run episode and we’ll be back next week with How To Buy A Horse. It was a wild ride but Scott was able to navigate Chase and Malcolm through their first purchases and is happy to lay it down step by step how to get in the game and what third party tools to use in finding your first horse. Make sure you download the SGPN app to stay updated with all of our upcoming content which will include twitch streams and more.
