This week we got the chance to speak with race broadcasting legend Allen Bestwick, the man behind the mic for over decades in NASCAR, Indycar, SRX, and so much more. It's not often the broadcaster gets to share their personal story, but this week we get to learn about Allen's upbringing, what got him interested in sports and broadcasting, and how he got his start in the industry. Plus, why his keys to success are as simple as hard work, being in the right place at the right time, and creating genuine connections.

From MRN, to NBC, to ESPN, we get to hear the inside stories as Allen's career grew and progressed. How years of hard work led to an unsuspected opportunity to join NBC for half of NASCAR's season, why he and racing/broadcasting legend Benny Parsons "had to" become great friends, and how a kind gesture from Tony Stewart years ago impacts their partnership on SRX.

We also discuss the direction of NASCAR, with new tracks continuing to be added, and a new car on the horizon. Allen says the schedules changes are an effort for the sport to break over a decade of complacency, and the new car will offer smaller teams more opportunity to grow. How money and declining viewership are playing a factor in both.

An incredible opportunity and interview. Join the discussion!
