Recovering from a global pandemic, living in a world at odds with itself and in the throws of economic collapse, we’re of course talking about the 1930’s, right? In looking to our past to help us understand the future, our search for a hero came back with, well, something more on-brand for us. Welcome to the story of Mike Boyle, the “business man” who started an Indianapolis 500 dynasty. Recorded specifically for our Amazon Prime series, here are the less-edited versions of the same stories, beginning with Mark Dill who teaches us about 1920’s and 30’s racing, followed by Dr. Wayne A. Johnson and John J. Binder, two Chicago historians with a background in organized, errr, “business.” Closeout song is “When You Came Along” by CHPTRS. Thanks to Continental Tire, Valvoline and Acura for making this happen.
