Episode 85 is on the scene with the King Of The Modifieds, Luke Baldwin. Baldwin talks about his season on the SMART Modified Tour thus far and what he has learned in the early part of the season. He also talks about his foray into the CARS Pro Late Model Tour this season starting at ACE on Friday night. The son of longtime Modified team owner and former Daytona 500 winning Crew Chief Tommy Baldwin also tells us about a budding media career. The podcast is hijacked by his brother Jack Baldwin and the Appalachian State student tells us about his own Modified career and who is the better Baldwin. They also take a moment to share stories over their fallen crew member and friend Glenn Dixon who recently passed away. It is over a half hour of fun that you do not want to miss with these budding modified superstars.The closest finish in Cup Series history is discussed in full at Kansas. Kyle Larson defeated Chris Buescher by 0.0001 seconds and we are glad that we do not have to hear about Aero Push, Tapered Spacers or anything else besides good hard racing. The boys also discuss Corey Heim and how big of a future he has in the top series and review the Truck Series Race.The zMAX CARS Tour returned to action at Ace Speedway on Friday night and we give you all the analysis, breakdown and interviews that you can handle. If your last name is Kvapil and you were on the entry list in the Late Model Stock or Pro Late Model race, you probably were very happy as the second Kvapil sweep at Ace Speedway alone took place Friday. Connor Hall may have had a tough night at Ace but he rebounded on Saturday with a sweep at Larry King Law's Langley Speedway to further his NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Racing Series point lead. We discuss Jake Johnson's first NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour win at Monadnock Speedway. Jody has been very high on the driver who piloted "Ole Blue" to its first win in over 2,000 days and it was only a matter of time before this driver picked up his first career win. Ty Majeski had a disappointing day at Kansas but he more than made up for it by winning the ASA Midwest Tour's Joe Shear Classic at Madison International Speedway.Mother's Day is this weekend and we tell you where you can take your mom, wife, baby mama, future baby mama or whomever to your favorite Short Track this weekend. The boys close the show by telling you who is tough enough to tame the track too tough to tame in Darlington.

Glenn Dixon's fourth book, Bootleg Stardust, is about a band in 1974, and for it the author created a full soundtrack of songs. Recorded on the legendary Rolling Stones Mobile Studio and then mastered at Abbey Road Studios, the project was the dream of a lifetime. His previous book, Juliet's Answer was published in twelve countries and translated into five languages including Chinese, Spanish and German. His second book, Tripping the World Fantastic, was a travelogue about music around the world. He has written for the New Yorker, National Geographic magazine, Psychology Today and the Globe and Mail. He lives In Calgary.

Hey folks! Today we talk with author Glenn Dixon. I truly enjoyed Bootleg Stardust - especially for the musical elements, which is kind of right up my alley (I mean, Almost Famous is one of my favourite movies. And I've worked in the music biz / music biz-adjacent for, uh...a long time). Enjoy.
