We're joined in this episode by Evan Jewson, a University of Alabama graduate and current Systems Engineer for the Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing's 45 Car as part of the IndyCar Series.
If, like us, you're curious how a hockey-playing, Chicago Blackhawks'-loving, high schooler from Lake in the Hills, IL, wound up in Tuscaloosa, AL, and became enamored with autoracing and found his way into IndyCar ... well, you're in luck!
Evan shares that journey, his faith in Connor Bedard, as well as what it's like watching football in Bryant-Denny Stadium, what it was like being deprived seeing football in person during COVID, his thoughts on the Tide's transition to Coach Kalen DeBoer, and his thoughts on NIL and the Transfer Portal.
Plus, he helps educate the auto racing-challenged host to better understand the ins and outs and the technical side of racing.
