  • Indy 500 Lore (If you’re ready!!)

    Hey Kat! I have a question about some Indy 500 lore, only of course if you’re at the place where you feel comfortable talking about it. In 2016, you were supposed to do the 500 with Paretta when it was Grace Autosport. I know Beth doesn’t talk about it often, but can you let us in on what that process was like? What were the main factors behind you guys being unable to secure a car (was it similar to the 2025 500?)? Though it was awesome seeing Paretta get off the ground in 2021, it was strange ... more

  • Race and Gender

    That opening “not so white paper” was pretty racist. I want to like and support you and even defend you and then I go to check your podcast out and it right away starts off with a racist ad. With that said. I don’t agree with the threats you have gotten or any harassment.

    Love it! Even as someone who has little knowledge of the racing world, I’ve found myself with a newfound appreciation after just a few episodes! Keep up the great work, Katherine, and I look forward to hearing more!

  • A genuine and authentic look into the life of a professional racing driver

    This is unlike any other racing podcast that I’ve found, and I’m loving it. Katherine is candid, humble, and at the same time also shows how much drive and determination she has, and what it takes to persevere in motorsports.

    Question for the podcast: I’ve been club racing single seaters for the past couple of years, and am now getting into endurance racing (still at the amateur level). I’m about to have my first races with co-drivers who I’ve never met, and I’d love to hear Katherine talk abou... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Therapy Session with My Manager
Q: But how did you get started in racing, Katherine, and how did your path lead to this collaboration?
Katherine describes growing up on a farm, building go-karts, and leveraging early web-design ventures to connect with drivers and teams. Her persistence and hands-on learning helped her earn partnerships and build a career that could later attract brands like Elf.
Motorcycle Drag Racing and an ARCA debut with Dystany Spurlock
Q: What are the steps you see on the ladder from ARCA to Cup Series?
ARCA is the current entry point, then possibly the Truck Series, followed by the O'Reilly/NASCAR Cup path; the order is chosen to build familiarity with different vehicle dynamics before moving to top-level competition.
The Astrology of the Grid, Racing Drama, and F1 Hot Takes with Lily Herman
Q: How does writing for Engine Failure compare to podcasting and No Grip?
Lily explains that writing remains her core, with podcasting acting as a scripted yet flexible extension, and No Grip allowing broader cultural exploration.
The Astrology of the Grid, Racing Drama, and F1 Hot Takes with Lily Herman
Q: No Grip. Now, it's a Formula One Culture podcast, right?
Yes, No Grip focuses on the cultural side of F1, not just the races, and Lily explains how the show broadens the lens beyond on-track action.
The Mechanics of Racing and the Evolution of Motorsport Media with Marshall Pruett
Q: What's something fans think they understand about the sport but don't, and what do you try to explain instead?
He emphasizes that fans often misunderstand how much the car and human factors interact, and how much race results depend on team performance, strategy, and setup as much as on the driver alone.
