Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 1.7k ratings
  • Unsubscribed

    Too much bickering between the hosts and putting the winner in the title is not cool. Some people have to work overtime on the weekends and can’t watch the race live so this completely ruins the race for us.

  • Great Content, Better than the Races

    Great show and love the added background. I am looking forward more to the podcast than I am to the races. No need for Chevy or Ford to show up to an oval. Will Byron catch him, we all know Denny was saving his stuff and Byron had zero chance.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kings of the Hill
Q: So how did you decide that Cup racing was the right move for you, and what changed to make this transition feel like the right step?
Austin Hill describes realizing he could handle Cup competition after observing performance gains, leaning on supportive teammates like Austin Dillon and the RCR group, and recognizing the opportunity to chase a longer-term Cup future while balancing the rally program.
Larson's Double Do-over
Q: Is there a clear sense of how close you are to returning to top form with Hendrick and the Cup teams?
It's tough to quantify; the competition is fierce and the gap fluctuates weekly, but the improvement is real and the goal is to keep pushing forward together.
Larson's Double Do-over
Q: Why do you put in extra media work after races, like the Matt Weaver interview or the infield beers piece?
Fans matter a lot to me, and staying accessible helps grow the sport; it's a way to show appreciation and keep the energy alive beyond the track.
Larson's Double Do-over
Q: Kyle, you had a big Saturday with the Knoxville win, what goes through your mind in that moment?
I'm focused on the moment, but I also think about the work it takes to get there—the practice, the team's setup, and how the different disciplines push me to stay sharp, while appreciating how unexpected the day turned out to be.
LIVE From the Brickyard's Hauler Parade & Alex Bowman's Retirement
Q: Can you take me through what led to your decision to retire after next season?
Bowman explains a combination of long-term health considerations, the toll of racing, desire to be a dad and spend more time outside racing, and a belief that stepping away while still competitive is the best move for his overall life balance.
