With Eric on vacation, Doug and Dan recap Road America and preview this weekend's AMS races.

They also discuss drivers spilling news and then Alex Bowman joins to talk about what driving in place of big name drivers is like.

Doug and Dan recap the Pocono twin bill, analyzing both Kyle Busch's gutsy win and whether Hendrick has a chink in its sheet metal. Dan talks about the difficulty of driving a transmission in only fourth gear and a reason behind the 9 team's lug nut penalty. Then Doug interviews the legendary Mario Andretti about, among other things, his karting centers in Atlanta.

The full crew returns to talk about Eric's new YouTube shows and the future of media. They also discuss the historical significance of racing and COTA and how to better officiate and equip for rain-racing. They also dissect the potential ownership role for Brad Keselowski at Roush-Fenway and the Indy 500 and F1 ups and downs last weekend.

Doug and Dan get together to discuss Alex Bowman's Dover win and how HMS finishing 1-4 makes a statement. They also talk about who the standout organization is (or isn't), pressure in the point standings, cheating the inspection line, and the youth movement in IndyCar. Dan also shares stories about meeting a Delaware governor and standing in for his brother Bill in a commercial.

With Dan and Eric out, Bud Hughes joins Doug to discuss the expectations of race fans who didn't think Darlington was a good race. They also break down how pit stops will change with the one-lug Next Gen car and what spec parts mean for longtime shop mechanics. Bud also shares fond memories of Atlanta Dragway.

The gang returns from a break with their impressions on the racing in Kansas and at Talladega. They also discuss the effect testing has on track revenue and the on-track product, how that late tire caution could upset bettors, if Kyle Busch's win was a statement, and what makes a good plate race.

The full crew digests Bowman's surprise Richmond win, Johnson's shaky Indy debut, the art of Lewis Hamilton's F1 comeback, the head-scratcher that is Kyle Busch, and Jen Jo Cobb's denial to run Cup.
