NASCAR Podcast: He’s A Winner. Hate Him Now.

Join Tam and Rene as they give you NASCAR talk for fans by fans. Tam and Rene offer an unapologetic, humorous, and unfiltered perspective on all things NASCAR.

In episode 82, we discuss:

The All-Star Race package debate, when the music is crunk, NASCAR’s largest diversity class ever, why do NASCAR fans love you until you start winning all the time, Kevin Harvick wins again, and more NASCAR talk. #AllTurnsNoBrakes
