Ep9 The Henry Chronicles

March 03, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 62.8 MB

The Henry Chronicles! If you know this guy, he takes a beating at the race track...not so much on it as he is one of our 2020 track champions, but certainly off it. Although it may appear some of this is directed at him, he seems to participate in some of the reckless behavior as well. Certainly more of an interrogation than an interview, but either way, fun all the way around!

February 24, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 105 MB

If 417 race wins and 39 championships sounds like someone you don't want to listen to, you may not be winning as much as you could.

January 20, 2021 19:15
