A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This has become my favorite podcast, not just in NASCAR, but all of motorsports. Jeff and Jordan do a phenomenal job of hitting the big topics, shedding light on the under-the-radar news brewing, and feeding off each other. I tend to agree with Jeff 95% of the time, but these two have great points, insightful knowledge, and provide plenty of laughs along the way. Don’t change a thing!

Chad200 · Aug 2023

It is so great to have another podcast to add to my week. Jeff is the foundation of this Podcast real even keel. Great insightful discussion everything NASCAR. Grateful to have it during the weekly grind.

Rumble18 · Feb 2023

Jeff and Jordan have one of the best weekly Motorsports Podcasts out there. Every week they discuss the races and offer their insights on NASCAR, F1 and Indycar. These two have a great, humorous relationship and are always entertaining. Plus their articles on The Athletic are expertly written and make for some great reads during the racing season. You guys are awesome and I appreciate the great content you give us race fans. Thank you!

JayGetsTheShow · May 2022

This is a great podcast, that is available immediately after the results of Sunday. Great breakdown of the events that happened, centered around NASCAR but not limited to. Give it a listen you’ll be glad you did, Jeff and Jordan are calm level headed takes on what is happening in motorsports 👍👍

Fireball111 · May 2022

I used to enjoy this podcast, but it’s obvious the hosts don’t like each other and the nonstop whining about the Kyle Larson waiver situation made it unlistenable. It’s a shame because there’s not a lot of good NASCAR content out there. But this has become absolutely brutal. Hope they read this review and take it to heart. Less whining and more good NASCAR talk without the bickering.

TaylorTravis15 · Jun 2024

Ever since becoming a regular NASCAR viewer in 2019 (returning after watching as a kid in the 1990s and early 2000s), I had looked forward to the post-race analysis provided by this podcast. However, in the last year, I’ve found this podcast becoming an increasingly tedious and frustrating listen. Less analysis than a regurgitation of hot takes and opinions generated seemingly more to create controversy than provide insights into the racing and the events we just watched happen. But by far the most frustrating aspect of this podcast and why I’ve finally unsubscribed - “the good race poll.” This is the scourge of following NASCAR on social media. Judging every race by the arbitrary “was it a good race” cheapens the experience of watching a NASCAR race. Every race won’t be a mad dash, three wide race to the line with crazy storylines. Some will be dominated by one driver or team. Some will have long, endless green flag runs. Some will have bad officiating calls, tire failure problems, or endless wrecks. That’s all part of the sport - always has been, even in the nostalgia-fueled, [not as] golden [as everyone remembers them] days of the past. The slow burn races or sleepy ones make the really great races all the more memorable and incredible. The “was it a good race?” concept has come to dominate NASCAR social media conversations, making already negatively-charged NASCAR fans even more inclined to kick and scream that everything is terrible, all the time. What’s worse is that the hosts of the show have followed NASCAR social media down this path, shaping their own conversations around the “was it a good race” framing. For now, I’m stepping away from this show with the hope that the cogent and enlightening post-race analysis will return someday in the future.
