The Jets reportedly wanted to keep the "tush push," potentially for Justin Fields. Gio's contacts found the Brett Favre documentary disappointing, and he wondered about the vanished NJ drones. The conversation then shifted to numerous calls about the Knicks-Pacers game. Jerry's final update included Coach Thibs discussing the Knicks' Sunday comeback. A young fan subtly asked Aaron Rodgers about playing for the Bears, while Joe Burrow preferred an international game over more Baltimore primetime matchups. The Yankees beat the Angels with a Volpe bases-clearing double, and the Mets won against the White Sox on a Lindor sac fly. The "Moment of The Day" involved furry talk with Eddie and Phil Simms. The show concluded with discussions about the high-rated, commercial-heavy Indy 500 and the lengthy challenge reviews in NBA playoff games.
Hour 1 The Knicks took Game 3 on Sunday, with Brunson and Hart leading the charge. They look to continue their road winning streak tonight in Indiana, where Tyrese Haliburton's dad will be in attendance. Jerry provided an update, noting Charles Barkley had counted the Knicks out when they were down 13. In baseball, the Yankees defeated the Angels, and the Mets beat the White Sox on a Francisco Lindor sac fly. Gio avoided the norovirus, unlike his daughter, and Stephen Waldron is out due to an appendectomy. Finally, Pablo Torre rented the Airbnb where the Bill Belichick Ring camera footage was taken. Hour 2 Tonight is Game 4 for the Knicks and Pacers and calls came in about people surprisingly wanting the Knicks coach fired, despite their run to the Eastern Conference Finals. Jerry provided an update with OG Anunoby on the Knicks' Game 3 win, and Kevin Harlan's funny "I'm wet, I'm dirty" comment from Game 2. Bill Simmons had Jon Stewart on his podcast where they talked about WFAN, Mike & The Maddog, and "two bald guys." The Yankees beat the Angels thanks to an Anthony Volpe bases-clearing double, making them 13 games over .500, and the Mets won on a Francisco Lindor sac fly, with Gary Cohen on the call. There were also furries in the crowd. Finally they discussed the missing Larry Johnson 4-point ball and more about the furries. Hour 3 Tonight's Knicks-Pacers Game 4 is being hyped as another "biggest game in 25 years." A caller who caught Boomer's football from Friday weighed in, and questions arose about how "furries" got into Citi Field. Jerry's update covered the Knicks-Pacers preview and the Thunder's 3-1 series lead over the T-Wolves. The Yankees beat the Angels again, with Anthony Volpe hitting a 3-run double, as heard on Dave Sims's call. Jerry also shared audio from an Australian radio show about short-lived marriages. The Mets secured their third straight win. A caller even wondered if Phil Simms is a fox furry. The hour concluded with talk of the "Kickoff To Summer" with Chris Lane and more anticipation for the Knicks game. Hour 4 The Jets reportedly wanted to keep the "tush push," potentially for Justin Fields. Gio's contacts found the Brett Favre documentary disappointing, and he wondered about the vanished NJ drones. The conversation then shifted to numerous calls about the Knicks-Pacers game. Jerry's final update included Coach Thibs discussing the Knicks' Sunday comeback.

It is finally time for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing, and our resident open wheeler Conor Daly will be rolling off P11 this coming Sunday. He joins co-host Chase Holden to break down all of the action from practice week and qualifying, which saw many surprises and breath-taking crashes. No surprise of course was bigger than rookie Robert Shwartzman putting his Prema entry on the pole. But, the news that Josef Newgarden and Will Power had failed tech and were being penalized also rocked the paddock. Conor gives listeners a detailed look at how his final qualifying attempt unfolded, which originally placed him in 13th, just a few tenths away from locking into the Fast 12. He also explains how on edge the cars are this year, and the major differences between being in qualifying trim and race trim.Pole winner Robert Shwartman joins the show to reflect on his historic feat of becoming the first rookie to capture P1 since 1983. He talks listeners through making the Fast 12 and the feeling he had laying down a perfect lap that held up for the top speed of the day. Robert explains that after the hardship he's faced in the Formula One ranks, it was incredible to feel the support from the crowd at Indianapolis. Conor and Chase also get to know Robert, the person outside of the race car, as they discuss his interest in hip hop music and how he is an aspiring musician himself. The guys chat about Prema team members like Ryan Briscoe being an asset and how Robert's car is feeling going into the big race on Sunday.
Few could deny that Ott Tänak was the fastest driver on Rally Portugal 2025 and would most likely have won by a handsome margin had he not been hampered by power-steering failure on Saturday afternoon. Instead, it was the old master Sébastien Ogier who was there to bring his Toyota GR Yaris home without any dramas while still outpacing all of his team-mates. David Evans and Luke Barry dissect all the action and consider why three of this year's WRC title favorites – Thierry Neuville, Kalle Rovanperä and Elfyn Evans – had relatively lackluster events. They also catch up on the American Rally Association's Oregon Trail Rally and look ahead to this year's DirtFish Women in Motorsport Summit, which takes place on Saturday, May 24.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Month of May is well under way, and Conor Daly brought home a hard fought 15th place finish at the Indy Grand Prix to kick things off. He joins co-host Chase Holden to fill listeners in on how a lap one dust-up with Callum Ilott caused him to have to fight from behind and how tire strategy ultimately allowed him to make a late race recovery. They also discuss Alex Palou's continued dominance and Rahal Letterman Lanigan's surprise qualifying efforts. Conor shines a light on the attrition and inconsistency the rest of the paddock (besides Palou) is seeming to deal with thus far this season and how everyone is operating on razor thin margins of error that can make or break race efforts.Four-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves joins the show to highlight his quest to capture an unprecedented fifth Borg-Warner trophy. Conor inquires about Helio's journey from full-time racer to part owner of Meyer Shank Racing, and how the team is adjusting to their technical alliance switch from Andretti Global to Chip Ganassi Racing. Helio gives listeners insight to how the major IndyCar teams (Penske, Ganassi and Andretti) operate behind the scenes, as well as their similarities and differences. The guys also chat about Helio's Indy 500 ride, his legacy in the sport, how Alex Palou ranks historically and working with Conor as a teammate at MSR.

The 1909 opening of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway marked a foundational moment in the history of automotive racing. Events at the famed track and others like it also helped launch America's love affair with cars and an embrace of road systems that transformed cities and shrank perceptions of space. Brian Ingrassia tells the story of the legendary oval's early decades. This story revolves around Speedway cofounder and visionary businessman Carl Graham Fisher, whose leadership in the building of the transcontinental Lincoln Highway and the iconic Dixie Highway had an enormous impact on American mobility. Ingrassia looks at the Speedway's history as a testing ground for cars and airplanes, its multiple close brushes with demolition, and the process by which racing became an essential part of the Golden Age of Sports. At the same time, he explores how the track's past reveals the potent links between sports capitalism and the selling of nostalgia, tradition, and racing legends. Learn more about your ad choices.

Conor Daly and the Juncos Hollinger team brought home a 19th place finish in yet another event that ran green in its entirety. He joins co-host Chase Holden on this edition of Speed Street to chat about the team's struggles with the primary tires this year and how the lack of attrition is forcing the entire paddock to adjust to gain on-track positions during the last three races.

Alex was pleasantly surprised by the hybrids in the test at IMS, but there are still some issues to work through, plus it's race week, not Tim's -no one cares about that one- but Barber. All that, plus Alex had another squirrel in his place, and apparently Brunner is a Houdini-Doodle, or Houdoodle, if you will.+++Off Track is part of the SiriusXM Sports Podcast Network.

Last week race fans had the opportunity to see IndyCars on track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time in 2025, and Conor Daly turned in impressive results during both days of the Open Test. He joins co-host Chase Holden to discuss what he and the Juncos Hollinger Team learned during their time in the IMS paddock and how the hybrid system performed its first time out at the legendary oval circuit. Conor explains why he thinks Team Penske will once again be in the running for the front row sweep, and how the littlest details matter when it comes to superspeedway racing. The guys also look ahead to this weekend's race in Barber and make some podium picks for Sunday.IndyCar Youtuber David Land joins the show to chat about the current state of the IndyCar Series and what social media content creators like himself can do to help drive the sport to the next level. David talks about how there currently aren't many Youtubers who concentrate solely on IndyCar, and how more creators with a similar output would be useful to bringing in new audiences. The guys talk about the current manufacturers in IndyCar and what can be done to attract new interest from other OEMs, including efforts to make the cars more of a focal point for the series. The interview also tackles the tough topic of negativity surrounding the series and what can be done to help curb bad publicity on social media, including changes to the schedule and less down time between events.

It's finally time for IndyCars to take the track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and Conor Daly will be one of 34 drivers behind the wheel this week. He joins co-host Chase Holden to break down the schedule for this week's Indy 500 Open Test and what teams and drivers are hoping to gain during their track time on Wednesday and Thursday. Conor explains that the big question mark this year will be the hybrid system, which did not come into the series full-time until after the Indy 500 last year. In an effort to gain data on the new system, IndyCar is allotting teams qualifying power during this initial test, which is something that normally doesn't happen until the Month of May. As a result, there will be many unknowns during the open test, and race fans will be able to tune in for all the action this year on IndyCar's Youtube channel.

Conor Daly had a rough showing at the Long Beach Grand Prix, and he is back on Speed Street to join co-host Chase Holden and break down what happened. After struggling in qualifying, Conor and the 76-Juncos Hollinger Team had an error in their fuel calculations during the early stages of the race, which Conor explains took him out of competition due to having to reduce speed to save fuel. He also outlines some of the mechanical changes the team was making to help get him more comfortable behind the wheel, but ultimately it was a difficult race day. Despite a record turnout for the historic race, IndyCar is once again in the headlines for the wrong reason: poor television ratings. Conor and Chase dig into the problem that has plagued the series in recent years and ponder solutions that can help put the series' fantastic racing product in front of more viewers.Race winner Kyle Kirkwood joins the show to chat about Andretti Global's success on street courses and how he was able to stay ahead of series point leader Alex Palou after the last pit cycle. The moment of the race was when Kyle managed to run competitive lap times on cold tires to keep ahead of the charging Palou, who made things interesting in the closing laps. The guys talk about the confidence Kyle will carry forward to Barber and the Indy GP with a win under his belt and how he hopes to close the points gap between him and Palou. Kyle explains how he hopes to improve on ovals this year and how he's learned to love that form of racing in recent times. The conversation also touches on the electric environment in Long Beach and looks ahead to the open Indianapolis 500 test.
