Amy Long has had quote the journey, both in and out of motorsports, to get to where she is now. She joins Davey this week (17:00) to explain how the the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Superman got her interested in journalism, along with her inherent curiosity, attending Florida State University, working as a one woman band MMJ out of college and how she learned the internet as it became a thing in society.
Traveling with the IMSA Patron team and working on the Miss Coors Light activation team got her feet wet in motorsports. Being put in a box by some, Long shares her thoughts on being a female in motorsports, and why she enjoys her role now with NASCAR Fantasy and Trackside Live way more. Long details how her relationship with current World of Outlaws sprint car racer (and former NASCAR driver) Kasey Kahne came to be, including seeing racing from his perspective, having the general public discover how good he really is (and has been), traveling on the road with him and what she can cook up inside the motorhome.
Plus, her time as a Disney Princess (yes, really!), why it was the most rewarding job of her career on so many levels, the impact she had on others in the role and how transforming into a character takes more effort than you think. As if that wasn't enough, she was a participant on "The Bachelor" and details the behind-the-scenes on how she got asked to be on the show.
Papa Segal gives an ode to one of the best to ever do it, Davey recaps the Southern 500 to open the playoffs, one that was "Holy Bajeezus" worthy and shares an update on his weekly TikTok recap videos.
