Send us a textPassion fuels Ava Weil's racing journey across dirt and asphalt, creating a remarkable story of perseverance and growth. This high school senior from Plymouth, Indiana doesn't just race – she lives and breathes motorsports with dreams of turning her passion into a career through motorsports management.Ava's racing roots run deep, beginning at age four when she climbed into her brother's quarter midget for the first time. Though she stepped away from quarter midgets after two years to balance school and sports, racing remained in her blood. At thirteen, she found herself back in the motorsports world, working alongside her uncle and cousin on their street stock and modified cars, absorbing knowledge that would later prove invaluable.The most fascinating turn in Ava's story comes with her transition from asphalt to dirt racing. After purchasing a front-wheel-drive car at fourteen that rarely saw track time due to her busy sports schedule, a chance invitation to try a go-kart on dirt opened an entirely new chapter. Despite having no dirt experience, Ava's natural talent shone through – finishing second in just her second race with her own kart. Now in her second season, she's claimed three victories and secured multiple sponsors.What makes Ava's experience particularly noteworthy is her position as one of only three females racing at MoCarts of Marshall County. Her success isn't just personal – it's inspirational. She actively encourages more girls to enter motorsports, even letting young girls try her kart after races to spark their interest. Her philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: racing means more to her than typical teenage activities because it fulfills a deeper passion.The technical aspects of racing don't intimidate Ava either. She works closely with her father on kart setup, particularly focusing on tire preparation and maintaining the required 5,500 RPM limit. These hands-on experiences provide practical application for her future studies in motorsports management.If you're inspired by stories of young women breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated spaces, Ava's journey will resonate deeply. Follow her progress on Facebook under "Weil Racing" and witness firsthand how determination, family support, and raw talent combine to create a promising future in motorsports.Support the showFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/womensmotorsportsnetworkandpodcast INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/womensmotorsportsnetwork/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ TIKTOK: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ X: https://x.com/IWMANation FACEBOOK Personal Page: https://www.facebook.com/melinda.ann.russell

Presented by 6D Helmets Last weekend at the Big Bear MX Grand Prix, I spotted a guy walking through the pits in a matching T-shirt and short pants, adorned with the JT Racing Bad Bones graphics that were made famous by Ron Lechien in the late 80s. Of course, the outfit was a modern offering from the licensing holders, but it got my mind reeling with memories of the glory days of JT Racing. That said, I shot a text and a photo I snapped of the guy to John Gregory, the man who founded JT Racing in 1968. Before I knew it, I had John on the phone for this podcast, which will eventually be part one with the man. Gregory lives on an isolated ranch in Idaho these days, and an unexpected visit from his neighbor ended up cutting our time short. Still, it was an entertaining chat and should be a great listen for anyone eld enough to remember the iconic brand. Enjoy!

Recently on Soundside, we took a ride into the world of micromobility. Specifically, we wanted to know as more e-bikes and scooters crowd the streets and sidewalks, how are cities like Seattle adapting? And after that segment, we got an interesting listener question about helmets, inspired by this Slate article. So we decided to investigate. "I think it's very wise to wear a helmet," our expert guest told us. "But they're not the whole story.. there are so many other public health interventions that are also crucial." Guest Kathleen Bachynski, a professor of public health at Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania Links Shared bikes and scooters are getting more popular.

Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about fear and public perception, referencing how some Americans feel uneasy about visiting places like Washington D.C. or even going to Disney World. He then pivots to a sarcastic commentary on Vice President Kamala Harris’s alleged influences, jokingly attributing them to liquor brands like Captain Morgan and Sam Adams. From there, Brett moves into a broader critique of “woke” culture and criminal justice reform, using exaggerated satire to illustrate what he calls the “Woke Patrol” Beth Troutman from Good Morning BT is also here for this Tuesday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Beth talk about space-age tech and political theatrics, kicking things off with a wild story about astronauts returning to the moon wearing gold-plated Oakley visors. They dive into the science behind it, the fashion statement it makes, and even joke about how long it’ll take for one to appear in the Oval Office—especially if former President Trump is involved. From there, the conversation turns to global politics, with Beth giving her take on the anticipated Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska and what kind of tone Trump might bring to the table.

Baseball's Danny Gardella was no ordinary ballplayer. A compact powerhouse — “not much taller than a fire hydrant,” yet a left-handed pull hitter with undeniable talent — he hit .267 with 24 homers and 85 RBIs in just 169 Major League Baseball games. That blazing two-year stretch with the New York Giants in 1944–45 proved his major-league mettle. But Gardella's story didn't end in the box score. Humble and working-class, he was a true Renaissance man — writing poetry, quoting Shakespeare, Freud, and Dewey, singing opera and vaudeville, boxing Golden Gloves, and defying gravity with acrobatic stunts in the clubhouse and on the field. When many veterans returned after World War II, Gardella's once-promising career faltered. Faced with limited opportunities and bound by baseball's reserve clause, he made a bold move — “jumping” to the Mexican League's Azules de Veracruz in 1946. That leap didn't just cost him his place in Organized Baseball — it catalyzed his fight for justice. In "Dangerous Danny Gardella: Baseball's Neglected Trailblazer for Today's Millionaire Athletes," author Rob Elias recounts how this “little-known but remarkable ballplayer” took the sport's reserve clause to court, sparking a legal battle that would echo through decades. Gardella's act of defiance set the stage in later years for Curt Flood, Marvin Miller, and the struggle for free agency — and ultimately helped birth the modern MLB Players Association. It's a compelling blend of baseball lore, legal drama, and the human story of a forgotten pioneer who dared to challenge the game — and, eventually, changed it forever. PLUS: "Gardella Gardens" - the upper left-field balcony section of the old Polo Grounds, where ardent Giants fans cheered on their favorite player - affectionately nicknamed "Gardenia".   + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Store: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/good-seats-still-avalable?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):   "Dangerous Danny Gardella: Baseball's Neglected Trailblazer for Today's Millionaire Athletes": https://amzn.to/4m7tklY   SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):  Old Fort Baseball Co.
