Episode 54: Dale Earnhardt Jr. & Alex Bowman (RWP)

The final podcast of 2019 called for more than one guest, so here’s four! Jeff Gluck (5:26) of The Athletic, Jim Utter (34:11) of Motorsport.com, Dustin Long (1:29:49) of NBC Sports, and Jenna Fryer (2:20:51) of the Associated Press are here to help me share how we, the media, cover championship weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway. It’s a jam-packed weekend with three series crowning three champions and various media opportunities throughout. We discuss if Homestead feels different from other race weeks, covering Homestead versus the other 35 races, how we approach a busy weekend, splitting coverage with co-workers, staying in the media center versus chasing stories outside, if we know what we’re going to write, quickly getting content out, separating ourselves from the others, and opining on the three NASCAR champions for this year, as well as leaving Homestead for ISM Raceway in 2020. Music created by Tony Monge. Editor’s note on Dustin’s story title (Kyle Busch’s ride of a lifetime makes him forget past losses, if only briefly). Twitter handles: @jim_utter; @jeff_gluck; @dustinlong; @JennaFryer Lionel Racing is the market leader in the design, promotion and distribution of licensed die-cast race cars.

Episode 7: Tony Gibson

Danny ‘Chocolate’ Myers is known as NASCAR’s most famous gas man, having been a member of the No. 3 team with Dale Earnhardt. Meaning Chocolate has a lot of stories to tell and plenty of opinions on the sport. We start with an emotional story about coming into possession of his dad’s die-cast race cars; the origin of the ‘Chocolate’ nickname and if he’s ever called by his first name anymore; what personal highlights stand out from his career. Plus, a discussion on the benefits of being a weekly co-host on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio; where he feels the balance is between promoting the sport but being honest with his opinion; getting comfortable in his radio role. Then we shift gears and start walking through the Richard Childress Racing Museum and learn about some of the notable things that can be found there; whether Chocolate likes people still wanting to talk to him about Dale Earnhardt; the thought process behind assembling the museum and information on visiting; stories behind different cars in the museum; a hauler; a connection to 9/11; and how much longer Chocolate plans on being in the sport. Music created by Tony Monge. Lionel Racing is the market leader in the design, promotion and distribution of licensed die-cast race cars.

Jamie McMurray

Jamie McMurray is fully immersed in his new role as a member of the NASCAR on FOX team and he’s revealing how the transition has gone from what’s been fun to overwhelming and even the difference in expectations versus reality. What does his preparation look like and how does a day and week progress? McMurray also expresses how he uses his teammates for help on approaching his role; going from being focused on his team and career to discussing the entire sport, storylines, and drivers; how McMurray approaches offering an opinion and analysis; why interviewing drivers is the hardest part of the job and how that has changed his perspective on interviews. Does McMurray miss racing? Will he ever get behind the wheel again in NASCAR or somewhere else? How it has been working in the new FOX studio which is nothing more than a giant green screen; whether or not he analyzes his work; thoughts on how much he feels he knows the sport now versus when he was a driver; if McMurray has any desire to one day be in the race broadcast booth; if there is any reason why it seems McMurray has been more active on social media lately; what he is looking at as the second half of the NASCAR season begins.
