Heritage Road

Busch / Wondery

Daredevils. Moonshiners. Women. TV. All of them had a role in creating the phenomenon of NASCAR, a sport that is all-American in more ways than you think. Host Rich Phillips, voice of Texas Motor Speedway, takes you behind the scenes and under the hood as he traces the history of stock car racing from its moonshine-running roots, to its current position at the forefront of technical innovation.

  • Bland

    A little bit of a let down, I was really looking forward to this one. The podcast is bland, vanilla, just not much insteresting cotent. A lot of great history and excitment that is not brought out in the podcast.

  • This show made me a NASCAR fan!

    Because of this podcast, I have become a huge NASCAR fan and much bigger appreciator of motorsports overall. This show played a major role in helping me to understand the history, culture, and science behind the sport! Heritage Road crafted a fascinating narrative through interviews, story recreation, and careful sound design! I recommend that everyone give this a listen if you’re a racing fan or not! It’s truly GREAT!! — just wish there could be more episodes!!!!

  • I have not heard from you lately

    I enjoy your podcast but you stoped at four shows. NASCAR has been around over 60 years and you can only do four podcast. You send us podcast only about other podcast you want us to download. You go down from 5 star to 2 1/2 to three star because you stop giving us what we want the history NASCAR.

    You are only sent others pod cast not the history of NASCAR

    Since I have received a pod cast since August I will unsubscribed your podcast

  • Good stuff!

    I'm really enjoying the podcast! But I gotta say... did I really just listen to an episode about becoming a legend and being legendary, without a single mention of Earnhardt? I don't want to be that person, but come on guys!
