Kyle Larson finally wins at Indianapolis
The talk of the spring in NASCAR was Kyle Larson trying to do the double – racing in the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 on the Sunday before Memorial Day.
The weather didn’t hold up to allow Larson to race in both, but Larson made up for that failed day with his win on Sunday at the Brickyard 400.
Rod Mullins joins the podcast to break down the win, and we talk off-the-track news with Cole Custer and Hailie Deegan. -
Ryan Blaney, not at all running on fumes, wins at Pocono
It will be a while before Ryan Blaney has a lead on the final lap and doesn’t worry about whether he has enough gas to get across the finish line.
He did on Sunday, taking the checkered flag ahead of Denny Hamlin.
Rod Mullins joins the podcast to recap the NASCAR Cup Series weekend.
We also talk about the struggles for Cup Series stars Kyle Busch and Bubba Wallace. -

Alex Bowman wins in the rain, Hailie Deegan, John Force updates
Chicago, for the second straight year, had its NASCAR street race, a neat idea, if there ever was one, dampened by rain.

Rod Mullins joins the podcast to break down the weekend on the mean streets of Chicago.
The show also goes in depth on Hailie Deegan’s bad breakup with her Xfinity Series team, and the latest on NHRA legend John Force. -
