Ep. 265 | Trevor Bayne
from The Racing Writer's Podcast · host JB15 Network
Trevor Bayne still wants to be a race car driver but also really enjoys making television with Fox Sports. In discussing those topics this week, Bayne explains what a typical week looks like for him based out of Knoxville; selling the coffee business in anticipation of running full-time in NASCAR again; the coffee business being a distraction in the immediate aftermath of his Cup Series ride going away; how long it’s taken to be at peace with where his career is at currently; how realistic it is that he’ll race this year; if Bayne feels behind when he does race because he’s not doing it every week; making the phone call to get into the Fox Sports rotation; how tuned he is to the racing each week and the preparation; the emotion of being on television compared to being in a race car; seeking out feedback to get better at the craft; watching other sports differently now knowing how television is made; what he wants fans to think of him being on television; how the fans view Bayne when seeing him in public; why he’s doing an hour of radio on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio each week; balancing opinion versus relationships in the garage; if not being in the NASCAR hub is a good or bad thing; if there is a timeline of when he needs to decide his future.Music created by Tony Monge.
