Scott and Galen revive a yearly tradition --- it's Indy 500 preview time! We start off by talking about our observations from watching old races on YouTube, with a focus on the 1983 Indianapolis 500 broadcast. We then move to discussing the bizarre series of events that took place over the course of qualifying weekend, including a rookie winning the pole and Team Penske suffering yet another inspection violation. We go through the field, talking about some of the storylines of the various drivers and which ones have the best chance to win. Finally we give our race predictions, and preview the weather for race day.

Team Penske has been rocked by a second cheating scandal in just over a year. Indiana residents can apply for money from the state to help make their home more energy efficient. Indiana collected about $51 million less in taxes last month than even the recent, very pessimistic revenue forecast projected it would. Indiana families who received credits for groceries through a federal food benefits program last summer won't get that help in 2025. Want to go deeper on the stories you hear on WFYI News Now?
