nascar

I felt so seen when Victoria talked about liking Jeff Gordon as an unknowingly gay kid. As soon as she called it a rainbow car I was like "...wait is *that* why I was a fan of his growing up?"

Listening to that Twitter diversion in May 2023 hits TOTALLY different.

Graham Linehan is 6ft 5+ (he's really tall unfortunately!) but I reckon you could still take him

Adam Foster

Fireball Robert’s earned his nicknamed because of his skill as a pitcher for Stetson University’s baseball team.

Honestly that just sounds like the M25

Alice: "you watch a massive pack of cars drive in a circle for 6 hours, and occasionally there is a fireball" How is that not a ringing endorsement for NASCAR.

I do not understand how you missed the opportunity to call your future Cryptocurrency LGBTokens

This is the Endtimes

Would "Invasions" be a good topic for one of the next episodes?

Davies B. Orck

I get the impression that Victoria Scott would go absolutely gaga over the Bathurst 1000

new Patreon reward idea: Liam makes an actionable threat against you

Alice

Asscar :O)

This one is for the regular episode on the Mont Blanc Tunnel fire. In the Cars universe, what car would Jesus be? A popemobile.

Kevin Bodel

I have never been to Nashvile but is better city than Bakersfield.

Suggestion for future episode: The Ocean Ranger or the Demon Core

As a new listener going back through your eps, I found that the first time Justin says “I’m the person who’s talking right now” in the cast intro is Ep 10, and then other speakers start saying it (and keep saying it) from Ep 11 onwards. I’m curious, why did you start saying this, is it for an accessibility or recording reason?

IndyCar please. So much good, bad, ugly, drama and safety innovations to cover!

If you do an episode on the NFL I will be so pumped. I feel Victoria on this - her NASCAR is my NFL. I grew up idolizing my heroes in the sport. Then I discovered CTE, the fact that it's essentially a gladiator sport, the rampant sexism, homophobia, racism, and unchecked greedy capitalist enterprise of it all. The disillusionment was incredibly painful. If you do an episode on this it will be my favorite episode of WTYP yet.

just wondering, will you be putting out another 9/11 episode this coming 9/11? I'm thinking of planning a watch party

Alice

"I HATE NASCAR" he screams rewatching this and emplemon's nascar videos in the middle of the night

Man2quilla

Will admit that when l saw "LGBCoin" on the side of a stock car the thought that ran through my head was "Why did English TERFs create a crypto-coin? And why are they shilling it through NASCAR?" Definitely the most cursèd thought l've had in a long ass time. Possibly ever.

Ijon Tichy

Fireball Roberts spent some time trying to unionize NASCAR through the Teamsters, which would have been awesome.

Premium feed, puh-lease

I know a million people have already sent you "Hey, this bridge in Pennsylvania fell down". It was this reddit comment about the state of bridges in the US that made me sit up and go "shit, I need to tell the team about this". https://www.reddit.com/r/CatastrophicFailure/comments/sg0v57/comment/huti13s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

The genius of Earnhardt's driving was his ability to manage the risk of his own vehicle...a loose setup, etc...but his willingness to rub paint and go on the grass if necessary just made other drivers try to keep a cushion around him. My favorite Earnhardt moment happened at Bristol in like 86. He's battled Waltrip for a while, Darrel has to pit and goes to the back of the lead lap. Then Darrel passes the field and manages to get around Dale going into turn 3 on the last lap. Coming out of turn 4 Darrel has the line and is about to leave him behind...so Dale just cuts his wheel hard left and puts them both straight in the wall. Kyle Petty came around and got his first win that day. They put a camera in his face after he got out of the car and he just sorta smirked. It was fucking awesome. I hated that motherfucker so much but not as much as Bill Elliott or Jeff Gordon. The thing about NASCAR and SEC football is that it's not so much about cheering *for* someone as it is coming up with bullshit reasons to hate other folks. That's the southern thing at least. Or maybe it's just my mom's cluster b personality, whatever. Growing up I had every NASCAR race from 87-93 on VHS. My completionist ass porn collection was sorta inspired by my dad's race catalog.

Wayne Rogers

Ah yes, THE most American sport. Hell yea.

Allen

More value for your money here than Tad’s Steaks.

I'm listening to this in my car bad shirt

Noblesse Oblahaj

when Alice said Dales wrangler jeans machine looked like a minion i had a physical reaction

Martin Frank

Bubba *Wallace*...love you Tori, but put some respect on the man's name

when does the frick park special drop?

Richard Fitzgerald

The one-two combo of Justin coming in with the great 9/11 joke after being silent for most of the episode, quickly followed by Alice saying "All we need is a Supreme Court Justice dying," which was probably uttered a day before Breyer announced his retirement, just absolute poetry.

CoachPatches

Did I miss it or did you completely not mention Days of Thunder? That movie was awesome. I love you all.

David Pierce

The Corey LaJoie face car, but Georgy Zhukov.

FortressPlotter

Wait a minute, wait a minute. At the 37:57 mark: "Do you remember when we were going to sponsor that roller hockey team?" "Oh, right, yeah." And then you just carry on with the rest of the episode? I am HOOKED, I have to hear the rest of this sponsor story!

Space Buck

Y’all need to do a cryptocurrency/NFT episode. Get David Gerard if you can - he’s on Twitter all the time and usually answers mentions quickly.

Matt

When the Car of Tomorrow arrived, The Onion introduced The Car of Yesterday: your choice of a 77 Cutlass, 78 Dodge Diplomat, 77 Grand Marquis, etc etc which would be way more popular with the drivers. Drum brakes, no aero, column shift, etc etc. I'd watch that series.

Just remembered that the Autobots in Michael Bay Transformers fought for the allies in WWII. It is not addressed in the films what the Decepticons were up to

Mike Crotch - Harvey

I feel like I must have misheard or something, because from me reading wikipedia and whatnot it looks like it wasn't a very young guy Dale Earnheart at all who died, but the third generation guy, who had been going for 25 years or smth? I'm assuming that the rest of what you said was 100% true though.

Petter Ericson

WTYPP should sponsor a car for 24 hours at Lemons, with Liam as driver.

Nick Gully

24hrs of lemons

etienne

Just listened to El Tren Maya, now syarting the Nascar one. I'd feel bad for Eme, but if they actually listened to more episodes they wouldn't be about to get their hopes crushed.

Cory Effin Springer

I cannot express the laughing fit I just had at the idea of Roz sitting quietly for 11.5 minutes just to pipe up with "even he needs to get to work"

Scott Campbell

Where is there good racing anymore? I still like Indycar as a sort of inbetween NASCAR & F1, but whose racing weird stuff?

Jerry Schippa

I hope this mentions Supermega

smeef.exe

Griffon

reds taste like plastic. im judging you.

Richard Fitzgerald

My two favorite things on the pod: vehicular disaster and Victoria Scott

Would it be racist to ask Alice to do a bonus episode on golf?

Dies Volt

Jesse Y

Tristan Ryan

I’m still listening to Alex Jones getting his ass handed to him, but this is next.

Pressing 'Y' to 'Yay Liam'. Please get well soon Liam. Hope all of you are OK.
