Tam and Rene are NASCAR fans who met at a race on pit road and quickly became fast friends. Both were invited as guests on a mutual friend’s podcast to talk NASCAR, and although it took them almost two years to decide to do it, All Turns No Brakes is a podcast that’s all their (and Front Row Kenny) own.
LISTEN: Tam & Rene’s First Time
Unlikely NASCAR fans, Tam was born and raised in Los Angeles and works by day in brand and talent management when she’s not traveling the world or writing about NASCAR; Rene, who is Texas born and bred, now lives in Los Angeles, and is a comedian who has graced stages around the world, from Greece to the world famous Laugh Factory in Hollywood. One day Tam and Rene talked about their love of NASCAR, discovered a dream, and made it a reality. Along the way, the duo hooked up with Prince George County native Front Row Kenny, who in his young career has published over 100 articles for a bevy of outlets including NASCAR.com, Motor Racing Network, NASCAR Home Tracks and the Prince George’s County Sentinel. Five NASCAR seasons later the crew is still sharing their diverse opinions about NASCAR on the All Turns No Brakes podcast.
Why a NASCAR Podcast?
Tam and Rene often found themselves calling and tweeting back and forth each week about the races. No matter their favorite drivers, race highlights, or outcomes, what always stood out was their passion for the sport. What they found missing was a community of fans that were like them, so they decided to create a true representation of what fans wanted to see and hear. The result? All Turns No Brakes. It’s for fans by fans (Tam, Rene, and Front Row Kenny).
And Then Came Front Row Kenny
Upon graduating from Tuskegee, the NASCAR Diversity Internship Program accepted Kenny as a Marketing Intern for The NASCAR Foundation. He eventually landed a coveted internship at one of NASCAR’s most famed tracks, Talladega Superspeedway. An avid NASCAR fan, Kenny turned his passion into a career when he joined the Motor Racing Network as an Associate Producer. Known to All Turns No Brakes listeners as “Front Row Kenny,” he started as a frequent guest on the podcast before becoming an irreplaceable host who adds a unique perspective on motorsports and a plentiful amount of historical knowledge.
What’s in the name “All Turns No Brakes?”
Surely you’ve heard the term “All Gas. No Brake.” This is Tam, Rene, and Front Row Kenny’s take on that. They don’t let up. The crew offers you NASCAR talk for fans by fans, including news, interviews, photos, videos and behind-the-scenes coverage.
