    Episode 341 -- Frank Stoddard on Going to Work at a YOUNG Age, Money and Bringing His Mentor Back From the Brink
    2025/04/09
    In the first of what will be three jam-packed segments, Frank Stoddard remembers going to work on a farm at an extraordinarily young age and how that played into him getting into racing. We then go Busch North racing … then Busch South … then back to Busch North with Stub Fadden, before finally heading to the Winston Cup circuit with Jeff Burton. We then dive into the January 20, 2005 issue of NASCAR Scene. Everybody else is headed for Daytona, while host Rick Houston is living life as a brand-new teacher and Brian France SAYS he isn’t looking for a new gig himself as an NFL team owner. NASCAR bans the Hutchens device … and Ryan Newman doesn’t like it … a reader REALLY doesn’t like Jeff Gordon … a fan maybe likes Michael Waltrip a little TOO much … and Kyle Petty LIKES Janet Jackson’s Super Bowl performance.

    2025/04/02
    In the third and final installment of our interview, Andy Papathanassiou remembers the departure of Ray Evernham from Hendrick Motorsports, the establishment of what amounted to a pit-crew department there, a terrible day in Martinsville and finally, his own departure from the organization he’d served for nearly three decades. We then take a peek at the October 1, 1992 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Geoff Bodine wins a rain-delayed race at Martinsville, while Rusty Wallace, Brett Bodine, Kyle Petty and Alan Kulwicki follow him to the stripe. There’s some movement in the Winston Cup standings … with Alan making up some fairly major ground. Dave Marcis and Michael Waltrip have at it and Mongo makes his way from West Point to pit road. Last but not least, we have reaction from Junior Johnson to a costly call at Dover andTim Brewer’s reaction TO that reaction.

    Episode 338 -- Andy Papathanassiou on Elite Education and Athletics and How it Propelled Him Toward a Career in NASCAR (1)
    2025/03/19
    This week in the first of what will be three installments of our interview, Andy Papathanassiou takes us through his academics-first, athletics-second upbringing in New Jersey and how that helped land him a football scholarship at Stanford. Andy started all four years of his college career, but a major surgery left him at a crossroads in his athletic career. And THAT’s when NASCAR first came into the picture. We then take a deep dive into the June 14, 1990 issue of Winston Cup Scene. The paper didn’t have anybody on the crime beat, so there was no coverage in this issue of Andy Papa’s first race ever and him sneaking into the garage. Rusty Wallace and Ricky Rudd are back at it at Sears Point, while Joe Whitlock turns in another masterful column … this one about his longtime friend Buddy Parrott. And … sadly … short-track legend Butch Lindley succumbs to injuries he’d sustained in a racing accident five years earlier.
