Reviews

4.1 out of 5 stars from 210 ratings
  • Not as good as it used to be

    The best part of the show is the banter between Kevin, James, and Marc. Jeff is like the school bus driver trying to hang out with the kids.

  • Better without Boyd

    James Boyd is horrendous and the softest dude in Indy media.

  • Jeff needs OUT

    The fact i’m not the first person to say this is telling. Jeff is not necessary for this show. He forced himself onto it and needs to force himself out. The only thing he’s remotely “good” at is tossing to break. Let KB, James, and Marc take it and sleep in, Jeff. We all beg.

  • Jeff is terrible, but you can’t fire the boss.

    The show should be Kevin, James, and Mark. Stay behind the scenes Jeff.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

IndyCar's Scott McLaughlin joins us to talk Fast Friday!
Q: What does your mental preparation look like as you get closer to the 500?
Scott explains that managing energy and avoiding burnout from too many commitments is crucial; he emphasizes controlling the workload and pacing himself, gradually building readiness rather than overextending early in the week.
Ed Carpenter Joins Us Live At Carb Day!
Q: What are you hoping to accomplish today in terms of practice?
They aim to validate minor changes, get pit stop practice dialed in, and leave practice confident with the car in one piece ahead of Sunday.
Ed Carpenter Joins Us Live At Carb Day!
Q: What was Monday like for you as a driver and an owner?
Monday was a shortened, weather-affected session where they focused on final tweaks and ensuring the car and team are ready, with emphasis on safety and performance for the rest of the week.
Best of Friday 5/8: Colts release Kenny Moore, Fever season tips off, Pacers lottery balls & more!
Q: What led to Kenny Moore II's release from the Colts?
The hosts discuss age, salary cap hit, and the strategic shift away from Moore II, suggesting the move opened cap space and a chance to upgrade the defense with younger or cheaper options.
Monday 5/11: Pacers lose draft pick, now what? + Alex Golden weighs in!
Q: Could the Pacers have acquired Ivica Zubac in the off-season and still kept the 2026 top pick?
Alex Golden suggested it could have been explored but would likely have required more draft capital and a different salary-matching scenario; the Clippers were firm in negotiations due to their own cap considerations, so it wasn't a simple keep-and-trade decision.
