In this episode, Jim Beaver sits down with Matt Martelli for a deep dive into one of the most unconventional careers in modern motorsports. From growing up in Parker surrounded by legends, to grinding his way into trophy trucks, to accidentally becoming one of off-road's most influential broadcasters and marketers, Jim's story is a masterclass in hustle, timing, and staying connected to the culture that raised you. Jim talks about building his first trucks from scratch, learning the media game before anyone else was paying attention, launching his own radio show out of thin air, and turning it into a nationally syndicated platform that's connected off-road to NASCAR, NHRA, IndyCar, Hollywood, and beyond. He breaks down his first big break with Red Bull Global Rallycross, the rise of Star Car, his relationships with icons like Ken Block and Travis Pastrana, and the B2B backbone that actually keeps motorsports alive. This is a wide-open conversation about racing, media, culture, sponsorship, eSports, and the future of off-road — told by someone who's been in every corner of it. If you care about where the sport is headed, or how to build something from nothing, this episode is required listening.

F1TV expert and six-time IndyCar race winner, James Hinchcliffe, joins Tom Clarkson to preview this weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix. Lando Norris leads Oscar Piastri at the top of the World Championship by 24 points. With three races and one F1 Sprint to go, there are still 83 up for grabs. So how will Lando and Oscar approach this triple header? Hinch shares his thoughts on the mindset of both McLaren drivers and tells Tom why it's still all to play for despite Lando's advantage. Max Verstappen is now 49 points adrift of Lando but, while his title hopes look slim, will he and Red Bull still be fighting for wins and have a say in the championship outcome? Plus, Ferrari have been on the Vegas podium two years in a row. Could this be the track where they score a first Grand Prix win of the season? After their double DNF in Brazil, Ferrari chairman John Elkann said Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc need to ‘talk less and focus on driving'. How does Hinch think those comments will impact the team?

Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden check in with the latest IndyCar silly season developments and Conor fills listeners in on his on-going search for a ride in 2026. The guys also discuss the recent IndyCar tests and the excitement around next year's return to Phoenix. Finally, Conor addresses rumors that IndyCar may be adopting a Playoffs-style championship points format, comparable to NASCAR and how that is unlikely for the time being.Lead singer of the All-American Rejects Tyson Ritter joins the show to chat about his recent introduction into the sport of IndyCar racing and how the band's relationship with Conor came to be. The guys explain that after a dinner discussion regarding the business side of auto racing, Tyson and the band decided to sponsor Conor's ride for the season finale at Nashville. During the conversation, Tyson also gives his impressions of IndyCar racing, how the band manages its busy schedule and how they are reinventing themselves 25 years later.
